Weekending

This weekend was pretty easy going minus some toddler tantrums, but I will take the good with the bad.

Friday after work, we grabbed some lunch and then took Walter to his vet appointment. I always get nervous when we take him in because I am always worried they will find something or say that we don't brush his teeth enough. We do brush his teeth often, but I know we can be better. Anyways, his appointment went well. He got his vaccinations and a heart worm test which came back negative! He did have to have a little bandage from the blood draw. Doesn't he look so cute?

After his vet visit, we took him to the pet store to get him some wet food and some treats. Then we dropped him off at home, changed over a load of laundry and then picked the girls up from daycare.

I had to run to the store to get something for dinner, which we chose Roasted Veggie Pitas with Avocado Dip. This is one of our favorite vegetarian dishes. After dinner, we hung out and let the girls watch an episode of Mickey Mouse Club House.

Saturday morning we got up and after getting ready, we headed to an old favorite bagel shop. We used to go to this bagel shop all the time when the girls were in the NICU as it is only a mile away. After bagels, we headed to Target to get stuff for our upcoming trip and things for the grandparents houses. We may have also stopped at the Vans and Converse stores and bought some shoes. Oops.

Then we took the girls to Chick-fil-a since it was in the same shopping center. We ate and then let the girls burn off some energy in the playground. On the way home, Avery told us she was tired. We got home and they went down for naps quickly and earlier than normal. While they slept, I headed back out to the grocery store to get groceries for the week.

The next few hours were spent trying to calm down Sutton as she got woken up by her sister early from her nap. They spent the evening fighting, sitting on each other, hitting each other and just acting unruly. Ha. I blame it on the rainy weather and them being cooped up.

I made dinner and after the girls went to bed, we watched Game Over Man. It is the movie with the guys from Workaholics. So weird, but funny and definitely not for kids.

Sunday morning I got up and grabbed some coffees and coffee cake to go and we hung out watching the Masters and enjoying our breakfast. While the girls played, we did a bunch of cleaning. We cleaned all the bathrooms, the floors, vacuumed and cleaned the windows. Am I the only one who does a major cleaning before going on vacation? My sister will be at my house all week with Walter, but I still wanted the house to be clean.

At 11, I headed out to go shopping for wedding shoes and accessories shopping with my mom and sister. We were out for about 4 hours and it was so much fun. I love watching my sister go through wedding planning and be a part of it. Plus I got some pretty awesome stuff while I was out courtesy of my mom. Thanks mom!!!

I stopped at Whole Foods to grab some Sperlonga bread (doesn't Whole Foods have the best bread?) and then headed home. The girls were still napping! They napped about 2 hours which is normal for Sutton, but Avery has only been taking 30 minute naps. It was beautiful out, so once the girls got up, we got them ready to go outside.

We came into their room and they were sharing a bed.

We hung up some racks in the garage and then took the girls out on their scooters and then out in their Jeeps.

If you follow me on IG, then you saw this last photo. Sutton stopped driving her Jeep to fix her hair. She didn't have a hair tie, so she just held her hair up and started driving around. I think Sutton will be a very distracted driver. Not only does she do her hair while driving, but she is rarely ever looking forward. Ha.

After Jeeps, we went home and the girls continued to play outside for a bit and then came inside to watch me make dinner. I made Baked Ziti. I got it off of Pinterest this week and it was really good. The only thing I would change, is to let the sauce simmer for a bit before putting it all together. I paired it with the sperlonga bread I picked up earlier that day.

After dinner, it was bath time and getting ready for the week. Then we hung out and finished the Masters. After the girls went to bed, we caught up on the Americans and Silicon Valley and then it was bedtime. 

Avery was up many different times last night, so I am exhausted. 

Hope you have a good week!!!
