Weekend Wrap Up

We had such a busy weekend; i'm pretty sure that i'm still recovering and it will probably take me all week to catch back up on my sleep! 

Friday after school, Gretchen and I went to the grocery store before heading to pick up her sisters. We came home and I quickly cleaned up the house, baked brownies, and got ready for my Stella & Dot party.
I have been eyeing several piece over the last year, so I was excited to have an in-home styling party. The jewels are so much more stunning in person than they are in pictures. Several of my close friends came, and we really enjoyed the time chatting, trying on jewels, and snacking and we may have enjoyed a glass of wine or two! 

I did have several friends that weren't able to make it due to high school football games, and if any of y'all are interested too, you can shop online HERE.
After the party we had a few family snuggles then put the big girls to bed.
Meggie fell asleep in the living room again. 
The next morning I picked up the house a little bit, and Adalyn enjoyed playing on our bed. One of my friends came over to watch the girls and I was able to escape for a hair cut.
I was thinking that I'd let my hair grow out again, but when I got to the salon, I told Valerie to do whatever she wanted. I wasn't sure if I needed a cut or a trim, and she ended up giving me a swingy- shoulder style cut. 

I came home to fix the girls lunch and once I put Adalyn down for her nap, I worked on this shirt.
Y'all are going crazy over this "gobble" Thanksgiving shirt!

That evening, I fed Adalyn dinner, gave the girls a bath, and we all headed out to the TU game.
The girls were so excited to go to football! Megan had been asking about the game since Friday.
When we were driving in, the girls saw the big bouncy slide and asked to go. They took about three turns and loved it!
I was honestly shocked that Meggie did such a good job sliding down once she got to the top. I was honestly afraid that she'd chicken out. 
Then we headed in to the football offices. I leave a bag of toys in DJ's office, and we drag them out and up to our family suite for the games. 
Megan was really interested in the game. She watched the team run out on to the field, watched the dancers and the bands, and did some cheering.
Gretchen enjoyed the iPad. 
Honestly, the game was pretty dull until the 4th quarter. The girls ate hot dogs and popcorn and played well in the suite. The score was 17-10 in the 4th quarter and we came back to tie the ball game in the last seconds of the game. I took selfless with Megan to pass the time since it was getting so late.
After our first over time, I put Adalyn in her pajamas and in the Ergo. It was 10:45 and she was getting so sleepy! I have a pac-n-play in DJ's office, so I can always put her down for a nap or for bed if she's too tired, but I was so impressed with how well she handled the game! 

We ended up loosing in triple over time, and we finally made it home around 11:45 and I got all the girls in the bed.

We decided to stay home on Sunday morning. All the girls slept until 8:30-ish. And I started the laundry and then went to run a quick errand while DJ was still home. 
Adalyn learned how to climb on our bed, so she was showing off her climbing skills. 
After the big girls ate lunch, I finished this shirt.
Adalyn took a nap around 11, so she had a late lunch. 
Meggie played on the iPhone for a while.

We ended up skipping Bible study and staying home so I could work on orders, do laundry, and get the house cleaned. 
Meggie wanted to watch my machine work and I even let her press the button a few times. 

We heated up frozen pizza for dinner, and then the girls watched cartoons while I finished cleaning the bedrooms. 
Around 7, I looked over and found Meggie asleep on the couch! I had to wake her up, because I knew that she wouldn't sleep long and then bedtime would be even more of a disaster then it usually is!

After bedtime, I fixed lunches, mopped the kitchen and worked on more laundry! I'm pretty sure I could've crashed much earlier than I did!

See y'all back here tomorrow for "Girl Mom"! I'll be showcasing lots of Halloween costume ideas!

Find me everyday:
