Soccer Games, T-Ball and Dance Recital - Oh My!!!


Tuesday
  • Why is it so hard to remember that it is Tuesday on the week of a holiday??!!
  • I met my boss for breakfast at her hotel before we headed together to Optum for UHG's Human Capital Forum
  • There was a networking reception that ran until 6p so Clint and I had to do a divide and conquer on kids activities at night.
  • Clint got Dress Rehearsal (HAHA!) w. Maci
    • Maci loved some solo time with dad, watching big girls dance and noodles for dinner
  • I got T-Ball w. Connor
    • Connor didn't want to do grounders anymore so we broke the rules and played catch and one kid said "wow he is so little but really hits that ball well" HA love when 4 year olds talk about 3 year olds like they are 10 years apart!
  • We met back up at home just in time for baths and bed!!!

Wednesday
  • Day 2 of Human Capital Forum at UHG for me - good networking, learning and quality time with my team from outside MN
  • Ducked out shortly after the event ended for another night of divide and conquer with Clint
  • Clint got Connor for gymnastics
  • I got Maci for Soccer
    • She is so dang good - we are thinking about putting her in the competitive U7 program this coming school year, she loves it and needs to play up to the competition
    • Proud mom moment - a man pulled me aside after and told me she knows what she is doing and is really good, Maci just says "thanks but only 1 goal today" HA
    • If you haven't seen the video I posted of her chasing down a girl breaking away on their goal and then drive it back down the field for the score - check it out!!!
  • Got home to enjoy a later dinner together before bed times
 #1 for her 1 Goal & Dedicated it to Grandpa for his B-Day!

Thursday
  • I worked from Optum again due to meetings, kind of missing my downtown office
  • After work, I went to dinner at Pittsburgh Blue with our CHRO, my boss and 2 compensation colleagues - such a fun and YUMMY dinner!
  • Came home to Clint watching basketball in the basement with Nate (neighbor) and I joined them for a night cap - finished the wine ;-)
Friday
  • Everyone I work with flew home and I was back in the downtown digs on a HOT summer day!
  • Maci had a "beach day" at school 
  • I met my former colleague Nikki for a yummy food truck lunch outside in the sun which made for a hard return to the office!
  • Clint picked up pizza and salads on the way home and I grabbed kiddos!
  • After dinner we headed to the Harty's house for SWIMMING and S'mores - amazing neighbors!
  • After kids went to bed, we rejoined the adults for cocktails and fire fun!

 Careful Cooking

Saturday
  • Household chores followed by Liz (a neighbor's daughter) coming to watch the kids around lunch time while we headed to a former co-worker of mine (Stacy) couples baby shower
  • We ducked out of the baby shower after a few hours and headed to get pedicures, taking advantage of that afternoon sitter!
  • After relieving Liz, we got some stuff done around the house, neighborhood kids were playing in the house and then we headed to dinner
  • Before kids' bedtime, we took a good long family walk - gorgeous night!
  • Clint and I weren't far behind the kids for bed, we needed some good rest!!
Sunday
  • Ran errands including our annual flower picking for the planters before hanging around the house/finishing laundry and prepping for Maci's big annual dance recital - likely her last one!
  • Maci loved every minute of the dance recital, per usual and Connor had a great nap and enjoyed hanging with his sitter, Maddie, from his former daycare
  • Once home we made a quick dinner and now kids are playing on the neighbors swing set before bath time and work/school week prepping.

We are excited for Nanny and Grandpa to arrive this Thursday!  Maci has a gap between the school year ending and her summer care starting so they have kindly offered to come visit and watch our M until summer camp starts next Wed.

Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
