Single Mom Week!

I made it through the week! This is the week that the Hubs was going out of town for a technology training and Little Buddy, Little Furry Buddy and I were on our own. I hate being home alone at night....to the point where I have a baseball bat in my bed and I'm up 50 times a night. I'm not use to this house (and the noises) and I don't live in town anymore, which means no handy neighbors to run to in an emergency. Thank goodness there were no emergencies! The week went a little like this...

 We helped dad pack...and by help, I mean stole his hat and his slippers/shoes.







Dad had one more night to show Little Buddy videos before bed and he was off to San Diego for the week. They cuddle like this every night. We read tons and tons and tons of books during the day so I feel zero amount of guilt when they watch Wheels on the Bus at night. It's the perfect snuggle time.




After the Hubs left, I did what any other adult would do....call their mom and dad :) My parents made the 3+ hour drive to spend Sunday with us. Bless their hearts. They brought Little Buddy new pajamas and they must have known I was not looking forward to the upcoming week alone, they brought me a new pair of jammies as well. Love them!

They left later that afternoon and I loaded Little Buddy up in the car and drove to my peep's house for a little Superbowl party! We were also on the hunt for supper as the household cook was not around. 
Supper! SCORE!!!!!

Little Buddy had a great time playing with her daycare friend, baby D. He's adorable. Simply adorable. 

The workweek was a little hectic!! There was many items on the to-do list; work, grad school, daycare drops and pickups, cooking, cleaning (just kidding, I didn't clean anything the entire week!) Tuesday, is garbage day. This means I have to walk the garbage can to the end of the driveway....also known as Frostbite Lane. It's cold!!! 
Darn garbage day....
We had time to face-time dad.....I am so jealous of the sun!! Little Buddy went crazy when she saw him on the phone.
The week didn't warm up so I bundled up again and took Little Furry Buddy for a walk. Not enjoyable. 
How can you not love this face?

I'm freezing...he's happy
There was also lots of cuddles, playing babies, and two little faces following me around every.single.minute. I'm seriously exhausted. 
snuggles...my favorite.

My car accidentally drove to  Caribou Coffee this week...on more than one occasion.You can't just buy for yourself when you work with the BEST teachers/friends. A little cup of coffee can make my entire day. I sent out a text on my way to get coffee and it took about 2.4 seconds for all 4 peeps to respond with their order. It's like Christmas when someone is willing to drive 30 minutes round trip (no lie) just to get coffee.


This is the first time that I have sat down all week and relaxed...of course in my new pajamas! They are SO comfortable!

 I enjoyed spending time with Little Buddy this week, but I am so appreciative that the Hubs is on his way home. I miss him. I'm also excited to have hot breakfast tomorrow. :)

ahhhh nuts, I have to feed the dog. I guess my relaxing time is over.


FEED ME!!!!

I'm going to enjoy the weekend having my little family back together. Have a good one ~ thanks for stopping by my little blog. :)
