Weekend Round Up

Our weekend started on Friday because AJU1 actually* got it off! We spent the day being lazy until about 3. Then we headed out for some "window" bed shopping and to grab a pizza. AJU5 of course charmed the sales people...

Saturday we got up SUPER early to attend a big event in town. Our goal was to leave at 5, and we were out of the garage by 5:15. We got to the exit we thought would be best (three entrances to the event) at 5:30. At 7, we still hadn't made it a mile to the light/turn. And, everything was about to get started. AJU5 needless to say was DONE being in the car, especially since she had downed all of her juice already while we waited. So we gave up and went home. Result: Two wasted hours and a toddler totally off her schedule! We spent the rest of the morning just hanging out. Then, after nap time we headed out for more "window" shopping. We went to two bed places and a car dealership before heading home for a relaxing evening. The only issue was that AJU5 refused to go to bed until 9pm (we tried to put her down once at 7)...

Sunday started off a little later than normal because AJU5 slept until after 6. That meant she didn't nap before church. Result: Toddler who melts down repeatedly during Sunday School and service because she needs a nap but won't fall asleep in my arms. So, needless to say she crashed in the car on the way home and had a good nap (2+ hours) when we got home. The afternoon was spent eating, catching up on reading for a class we are taking, and watching the NASCAR race. Then, AJU1 asks how much it costs to rent a UHaul to carry a king bed. Shortly there after we purchased a king bed which is to be delivered tomorrow. Hopefully we will sleep better on it than on our queen "taco" bed... Then it was off to church, etc. AJU5 did go down at her normal hour and is back on schedule LUCKILY!

*AJU1 works a 9-80 schedule, so he should have every other Friday off. But, he has been working half days many Fridays (overtime) because he is so busy there.
