Another week gone by.....

Sooooo last Saturday, like over a week ago, my BFF Cindy from college had her twin baby girls at 33 weeks! Alicia (5.4 lbs) and Zoe (3.1 lbs) are doing great! Lots of TLC in the NICU and many more weeks at the hospital but overall they appear to be doing very good for 33 weeks!

Last Monday I worked a little late and then mom and I went to see them. Crazy how teeny tiny they are! Even for having small babies myself, you just forget! And Zoe's little diaper is even smaller than the premie ones, they look like little maxi pads!

I was in training at work for 3 days and still trying to NOT get behind on my normal work stuff, it was exhausting. I worked some OT and by Thursday I could feel the sore throat starting on...Friday, felt the head and grogginess take control. My weekend was TOO busy, there was no time to be sick!

 

Some nonsense from last week...Piper riding Presley like a pony.

or not.

She refuses to wear hats, even though she looks freakin adorable!

 

Friday night I went to bed early. We had to be up for the Cystic Fibrosis walk in the morning. I felt like crap, so Steve got up, got the girls ready and headed out!  I wasn't going to go, but I hate missing it, everyone was going to be there and Steve made a kids picnic table for the auction and I wanted to see how much it went for ($175! He was happy with that!). So I took some meds, ate some toast and met them there...making sure to keep my distance from Miss CF'er Andrea, so I wasn't passing any of my germs on to her!

 

Piper walked around with one hand in her pocket (now I'm thinking about Alanis Morrisette!)

We played on the playground (my strawberry blond hair, hazel eyed baby!)

Steve took PIper home for her nap and Presley and I hung out for a while longer. We got home about 1, regrouped, got ready and then headed out about 2:30 for Sadie's birthday party at The Little Gym. Piper is really too young to participate and now Presley doesn't want to, unless Piper does. So they sat and watched. Fun. (I had to straighten P's hair, can you tell?)

The only thing they did the entire time.

Piper found her boyfriend, Charlie

and then he found her. And hugged her up against the door?!

Then we left there and went to Ankeny for Jerry's birthday party! They grilled out, there were lots of kiddos. The kids were good, it was a lot fun hanging out and talking with everyone! We were there too late and we didn't get the kids home and in bed until almost 10!

They did sleep in for Steve on Sunday morning, this mama was up and at work by 7! Get in some overtime! Then I did our grocery shopping and got home about 1, we hung out, played outside (Presley was able to play with Bryn down the street, then her friend Allie came over and then Layla came over!)

We had been talking about getting ice cream at Van Dee's all weekend so we left about 3:30 to get some ice cream before we headed to Andreas graduation party! Her party was great! Andrea really is like a little sister to all of us, we love her and are so proud of EVERYTHING she had accomplished!

We all went in together and got her skydiving (yes, we got the ok from her mom!) and she was beyond shocked and excited!

 

Overall a busy but successful weekend! Now I just need to get back to 100% and get some stuff crossed off my to-do list that is growing by the minute....at least I got a blog in tonight! I do have more to say at a later time, I'll write that on my to-do list too! :)
