weekend wrap.

friday was a wash.  i stayed home from work because i felt like crap.  i have no idea what we did that night, but i'm sure it involved going to bed early.

matt bowled in the men's tourney in town on saturday, so he was gone all day.  i was feeling good enough to do chores around the house.  i actually felt like i got things done too!  let's see what i did:

• i rearranged the furniture in tucker's bedroom and tried to go through his toys and clothes.  i got a good start on that, but this week i'm going to keep working on it.  i'm so sick of the toys being EVERYWHERE in the house.  i know that he obviously is going to play with them wherever, but as far as storage, i want them all in his room.  this task could get interesting.  we'll see what i come up with.  it's time to get his room done. 
• i also started working on my forms and such in the event i actually want to go full speed ahead with my photography.  i've been asked to do some events and such without actually having a business up and running, so i figure, why not jump in with both feet?  scary, but a good kind of scary.
• laundry, dishes, vaccumed: the usual.
• downloaded all the pictures off my camera again.  i have to update a girl and her canon.  by the way, if you've been leaving a comment there with a question for me, i've just been responding in the comments back to you.  i have to set this up so my comments are emailed to me.  it is so much easier to respond like that.  just so you don't think i'm ignoring you guys though!
• i caught up with some of my tivo'd shows.  a little days of our lives, a sprinkle of celebrity apprentice, and a dash of oprah.  the tivo was getting pretty full!
• hung out with the coolest kid ever: tucker!  we played with his new kitchen set, made a mess with playdoh, colored in his winnie the pooh coloring book, exercised (which to him means just laying on the floor - he seen me do pilates and that's what exercise is to him now), and snuggled!

winter is getting SO old here.  i can't wait until the snow melts but i know i have more than a month of this crap left.  anyways, my mother-in-law bailed me out of my temporary insanity cabin fever so that matt and i could go down to the muni one last time before they start remodeling.  they are going to be moving the entire bar to the reunion hall during the remodeling so it really was 'the last night' for the muni.  we were home by 11, but it felt so good to have a couple hours out with friends (and family).  it was the first time i seen my brother and tina since they got back from their cruise too!  i only took a few pictures because we were too busy talking - or maybe i was too busy talking?  :)

on sunday, i got to visit with my cousin lindsey for a while.  she stopped at my house before she left town.  i miss her!  in the early afternoon, i met up with meg (and her boyfriend) to take some more pictures.  we had planned to get together last weekend, but it hadn't worked out.  i got some good shots.  i wish it hadn't been as windy and that we had more options for indoor shots.  i think i might be working on setting something up inside my house at some point.  not sure where or how, but i need to do something.  not having a 'space' is frustrating.  the rest of the day was just spent hanging out around the house.  tucker went to bed at 9.  we laid in his bed and i turned on his 'twilight turtle'.  he loves the stars on his ceiling.  he just laid there and looked at them, holding his arm up and pointing at them all.  it was funny.  well, we both fell asleep in his little bed.  matt woke me up at 10 so i could sleep in a real bed.  i didn't even bother going back out in the living room/kitchen to pick anything up, i just went straight to bed.  i was so tired!

hope you all had a great weekend!

Good for you! I hope you get a business up and running. If I lived closer, I'd give you a shot! Good luck with that!

I am so with you on the toys everywhere thing. We have baskets for Anna's toys under our massive kitchen table, but they still spill out everywhere. There is not one square foot of our house that does not contain a small plastic toy/hair clip/beach 'treasure' - it's completely unsafe to walk around in bare feet at night!!

[Emilie]

sounds like you had a bust weekend!

I am very, very, very sick of winter as well. I think here in MI we're going to be getting snow tonight! yuck!

Busy, Busy, Busy. Sounds like a pretty good weekend though, except for being sick, I know about that one.
Good Luck on the Photography business!!

Well before I read your post I was just thinking about asking if you would be interested in taking some outdoor pics of me and Kolby (and Mike if he comes with) this summer while we are in the Bay. . . .

Sounds like it was a weekend for rearranging; we rearranged Matthew's room too. All because we hung up a wall quilt that he wanted to play with while in his crib so we moved things around and I really like it. If I lived closer, I'd ask if you'd want to take his 18 month pics since we're in desperate need to get new ones out to family!

What kitchen set did Tucker get? We've been thinking about getting one for Matthew too.

sounds like you had a nice weekend. i wish it were friday. last friday, that is. this weekend just went by much to quickly. hope you have a great week. did you have a good time at the muni. i hope the renovations go quickly. :)

So did you take "before" shots of the muni?! I cannot WAIT to see what it looks like when it's done!!! I also can't WAIT to get married so you can be my photographer...oh and obviously you're doing the engagement photos as well:) That is, IF you are willing...there's some guaranteed money (it's probably least five years away, can you imagine the technology then?! lol)
