Just wanted to let the MN moms know we are for sure headed to Mpls and will be available for fun on April 18th. Anyone up for the zoo or that indoor playground? Other ideas? Can't wait! I had so much fun with Nancy last time!

Late morning, early afternoon? I need to check out by 11 I am sure and I have to drive the 4 hour trip back to moorhead that evening.

I can meet up, but we don't get out of church until noon. We can just catch up if everyone is meeting earlier.

I had a little Mommy Time today I went to Uptown (alone!) on my search for a Ribbit Flip. A good friend lives in Uptown, so I asked if he was free. Luckily he was! So I got to spend the afternoon with him and his fiancee. Then after the kids' nap, Aaron brought the kids down and we all had supper together at their place! So nice to have an outing. It is rare that a spur of the moment gathering works out with two little ones nowadays!! Of course, I asked DH to bring a bottle of milk just in case, but I ended up nursing Tristan. So, of course I forgot the milk there. Aaron says "Well, he is over 1 now anyway" indicating that I don't need to worry about wasting the 4 ounces. I am not making that much milk anymore, and next week I am dropping down to 1x/day pump at work, so that 4 ounces is precious!! I will make the 40 minute round trip to pick it up tomorrow

So now it is Christmas here! I am prepping my Ribbit Flip! They didn't have the organic cotton inserts, so I got the stay dry and bought an extra Hemp Babies insert that I am prepping now. I am boiling it and I have changed the water 4 times, adding just a little detergent each time. Hopefully, I won't have to waste all that wash machine water now. The package says I am supposed to wash the cover 6 times alone before use?! That seems like a waste... I think I will just wash it once on hot. I think they are worried about bleeding, but not sure.
Hopefully, I get everything ready to go for a trial run tomorrow night! I'll get an action pic too

The next day was my 4 year olds bday so we went to chick fil a for lunch and chuckecheese for dinner. lol Then yesterday we went to sea world and stayed ALL.DAY.LONG! I am EXHAUSTED! Today we spent all day running errands to get ready for the boys bday party tomorrow. We have a big moon bounce coming and a toddler one and a bubble machine that will be delivered tomorrow. Got a huge cake shaped pinata and will have the big bday cake, a smash cake for Jacob, my grandma is making a cheesecake, my moms aunt is making a chocolate cake that she makes all the time and I will have cupcakes. Ummmm cake anyone?? We will be having a BBQ with family and a few friends. It should be a good day!
