So Hannah is excited about her summer sister, huh? :)
I can't believe you got away without cooking at all? You are a master mom!
Wow what a great day.. You will be gone until July? Have fun.. Loved all of this.. Have a great weekend.
Hannah looks so cute in her costumes. Will we be seeing one of these at the show later this month? You've done a great job this week. That hubby better treat you to something nice (spa, anyone) next weekend! (I don't suppose we could do that the weekend I'm there...being father's day weekend AND Jason's birthday) :0 LOL
i'm impressed by the number of times you cooked dinner! and she is SO cute in her 2 dance recital costumes!
sounds like a good week...smiles. some great pics...i know i always say that...so how did all the injuries happen?
Cute list. I probably would have had more wine. haha.
you are brave. I could not do it :)
Number of times I think you have adorable kids? Same answer as you!
You rule for not missing any workouts and bless you for surviving 8 days alone!
You are amazing! Thanks for visiting my blog this week, it's really encouraging. I DO NOT envy your parenting alone this week+. I always hate doing that. I resort to chocolate (for me) and DVDs (for them.)
Hilarious post Teri! I loved it, and all the pics. No clothes huh? Let's stick to that!
Oh God, you are so funny. Thanks for make me laugh.
No dinners? Awesome! But only one bottle of wine? I don't think I would've made it!
When I saw number of bottles of wine I opened was one I thought only one, but then I saw the next line!!!
How did you not cook dinner and not go out? Scrounge dinners?
Okay.. here is a comment. I want everyone out there to know that I think all my Grandkids are just about the cutest things around.. and that my daughter, Teri , does a great job of blogging and taking pictures of her two. I love to "swipe" them and put them where I can see them. My go to on bad days!
Such a cute post!!! I love the = 3 banged up family members, I hear that!!!! They are sooo cute!!!!
Okay.. I just did my first blog.. LOL..
LOVED this post!
Glad, if nothing else, you got to enjoy some wine and still managed to workout. You are awesome!
Sounds like you rocked it to me! I just helped my neighbor out last night by taking her 2.5 yo boy for an hour, so she could put his little 9 month old sister down for a nap. Her husband is gone for a week and those 2 are such a hand full together. By themselves they are fine but together it is like an explosion, literally!
What a super cute little dancer you have!! Cute post
That really was an adorable post. I love the pics of your daughter in her ballet costumes...sooooo cute!!!
Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. Your thoughts and prayers are very much appreciated.
Way to go! Everyone survived and that is all that matters! LOL
LOL so glad you survived my friend! What is up with the hubster not calling in to check on the family though? I would have killed my hubby for that one! HA! Now, it is your turn - where are you heading for vacation?! LOL Have a great day my friend and thanks for the sweet comments on my furniture post yesterday. :o)
My favorite post of yours so far, Teri!
LOL!!!
I think you take some of the best kiddo pics!! Congrats on mowing the lawn - do you rule!
Lots of cuts & bruises definitely equals lots of wine consumption for mommy LOL. Great pics! Hannah is so adorable in her dance outfits!
Only ONE bottle of WINE?? Girl you are superMOM!! Sounds like my weeks lately...hubby has been away on business SO MUCH...I'm thinking we might also see each other come July ;)
LOVE LOVE LOVE the dance photos/costumes - she's sooo adorable! Oh and the last photo of your charmer on the slide with the sun - awesome.
thanks for stopping by again.. It is great to have you..
I don't cook even when my husband is home, but it's really bad when he's not. I could eat cheese dip every night.
When my hubby is out of town, which is every week, I don't every cook for the kids. They each get to choose what they want on alternating nights. When he is home on the weekends, we go out. No wonder there is a weight issue!!
You have been VERY busy and the week's only half over! ;D
All in all....seems like a successful week. What's up with no fish being. Rought home?
What a SWEEEEET post :)
There are some good things about a honey being away :)
But it is always good to have them back :)
(It would have been great to hang out again and open a bottle of wine ;)
