What a weekend I had...what a weekend...
I found myself Friday night wondering what I was going to do the next morning...everyone was busy except me and the kids... so... Saturday morning rolled around... and I decided we were home until Jake came home from wrestling crap was done... I woke at 830 to feed Stuart and keep him in my bed... and started a load of laundry...got back up at 930 to Sondra in my bed...butt naked...no matter what I put this girl in at night she wakes up with totally different clothes on or nothing on..if she is real excited for the next day she will put her clothes on that we have laid out... she is funny..so we get up I get Sondra breakfast and continue to do laundry... my house has been pretty "tidy" for my standards but needed a little cleaning...I give the kids a bath in between laundry... (common theme= laundry) Jake gets home.. we talk about what we are going to do today...if I ever say lets clean...he always comes up with something else to do..so when I say we don't have nothing..lets just clean up some..he starts..well lets see what my parents are doing today..maybe we will go to Spencerville...I agree...I'll be honest..I'll find any reason not to clean...no such luck..they were in Greenville for the day but after he gets off the phone he says Oh ya My dad called yesterday (i'll explain later)... so I say..Lets just clean up and do laundry..and we'll order pizza in or something or go get dinner...well not long after Jake had to go to my Grandpa's to clean farm stuff...so he was gone for a few hours... I got a lot of laundry done...we ended up folding 8 loads of laundry...and I got my last 2 in the washer/dryer now(catching up from when we didn't have a working washer & lets be honest...I hate laundry- usually only do what we need)... Our house is clean and I love that.. the only room thats not clean in our bedroom & our back room..I want to move things around I just have to come up with a way to how I want to do it...
so when Jake got off the phone he says his Dad called yesterday and wanted to drop off a free Tv for us which Jake's dad got through work..and I was thinking Yay!.. I have been saying I wanted a new Small TV to hang in our bedroom so we could get rid of the stand...well when he called his parents Saturday to see what they were doing they said they would drop the tv off Sunday..they came over Sunday Mom, Dad, & Zac.....dropping off our new baby...a 55 in. Flat Screen!... I never in my life thought I would own a big TV...but Wow..its nice... so instead of getting a small TV to hang in our room..our med. sized Tv from living is going to our room and our Big Baby is on hanging on our wall right now courtesy of Spencer Jake Zac Chris...while Me the kids..Patty and Rachel watched! Although it looks rather large in our small house I had to live by my motto in life: If its free its for me! It was such a nice pleasant surprise :)
As I look back on the weekend...I think how nice it is just to be home.. yay sure I was busy doing laundry..but its nice not to have anything to do...I really enjoyed it...and next week is the first Wrestling thing...its Spencerville Preview... that should be fun :)...I'm really excited for wrestling now...I'm excited to see the boys do good. I know we got a few good ones & can't wait to see which ones make it to March!!!
Also..this is just matter of factly kind of info...
When I named both of my kids- I never intended to call them a shorter version from the start. Does that mean I'll never call them a "nickname"..no... People always ask me if I call Stuart - Stewie...and I say no I usually call him Stuart...and then they say oh you don't like that..and no that is not it... it does not bother me at all if you call him that....I prefer to let his friends someday give him that nickname. if I call him anything but his name i sometimes call him Stu just b.c. I think its funny b.c. Stu is such a old man name... Or my Favorite...when I was pregnant when we told people what we were naming him they would ask if we were naming him after Stuart Miller from Delphos... lol... and No we didn't... he was a pretty awesome wrestler...but no...Stuart was our favorite S name to follow our SRC tradition of naming our kids...
Until next time :)
