Bubble Party Fun & Aunt Molly Moves to OSU!

Daycare had all sorts of fun stuff going on for Maci girl this week with the summer end coming near. Wednesday was her daycare summer open house which included a princess themed bounce house, games with prizes, face painting (Minnie Mouse of course) and root beer floats.  Maci made quite the scene though when it was time to go as she is NEVER ready to leave a bounce house :)  Then on Thursday they had a bubble party with a local company coming with music and lots of massive bubbles.  I just laugh at all her energy in these pictures.

Friday - Maci woke up just seeming off on Friday.  She was really lethargic and had sweat on her face.  She didn't register a temperature but when asked if she wanted to go to water day at school or stay at home with dad she sadly said "stay home with daddy."  She then requested mac n' cheese followed by "I want to take a nap."  However, once she woke back up around 1030 Clint says she was totally herself to the point where they spent the rest of their HOT Friday eating Chipotle, playing and doing some household errands.

After I got home from work, we ate our usual pizza dinner and then headed to our neighbors who have the in-ground pool for some evening cool off with all the kiddos.  Maci has finally turned back into her original fishy self as long as you just let her swim and don't make her put her head under the water.  We then came home to watch the 2nd half of the Bengals pre-season game - ahh so close I can feel it!

Just Like Mom

OCD is alive and well with this one :)

Saturday - We decided to skip the last soccer because it was so HOT and well Maci just really didn't pay attention yet anyway :)  Instead we ran our main errands for the whole weekend, allowed M to nap in the car and then as soon as "work" was done we hit the local pool for some much needed cooling off.  Maci had a blast at the pool and even got some cotton candy on the way home because she put her head in the water 3 whole times!  After swimming and the hot sun, I was zapped and ready to chill on the couch.  Clint went over with 4 of the neighbor guys for fire and a few too many drinks.  I on the other hand caught the Vikings pre-season game - 2nd favorite team :)  A nice productive but also mixed in with some lazy Saturday!

Sunday - We started our Sunday trying a new Catholic Church where we may send Maci for grades K-6.  It was a nice church and far more relaxed than the one in our SLP neighborhood and only about 5-10 mins from our house.  After church, we tried a new pub/restaurant in Hopkins for brunch - 819 Pub and wow was it yummy!  Clint loved the $2 bloody Mary if you purchase a meal.  He was also a HUGE fan of the Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits and Gravy.  My Eggs Benedict were great and Maci loved her bear shaped pancake.  We will definitely be back and plan to take some of our visitors there at the end of August :)  Afterward we were all dragging from the long day yesterday and so we did a family nap time until about 1p.  Afterward, we kicked it into high gear get many more items off the house list checked off and I sold a bunch more stuff on the Facebook garage sale site.  I almost teared up though when selling 2 bins of Maci's 12-24 month clothes, each outfit just has so many memories but I don't want to be the border that keeps them all :)  We are now preparing to sell our extra queen box spring and bed frame and then eat some yummy deserved dinner!  It was another day of lots of work around the house but it makes this momma to be feel that much better - I love being organized!

We hope everyone has a great coming week!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & Baby Boy to be :)
