SPRING WEEKEND

Even though we didn't have any big plans for this weekend, it turned out to be very pleasant.  I really like it when we have nothing major planned and we can just go with the flow.  Matt took Quinn out to dinner at the mall for a daddy-daughter date on Friday evening.  The exhaustion from the week hit me all at once on Friday and I needed a break.  Needless to say, Quinn had a wonderful time with her daddy.

Saturday was cold and rainy.  Everyone slept well so we had a lazy morning.  French toast has become a new favorite.  It's so easy and yummy to make (3/4 cup milk + 1 egg + 1-2 tsp. vanilla + dash of cinnamon, stir, dip bread in mixture and put it in the frying pan!).  Saturday evening, Quinn had a babysitter so that Matt and I (with Emma in tow) could go out for dinner.  Dinner went well, but the car ride there and back was a little painful...non-stop crying from Emma.  Why do all my babies dislike the car seat?!  I did end up buying this super comfy "OHIO" shirt while we were out though.  Yes, we ended up at the mall two days in a row...

The work on our patio/deck started this weekend too!  I can't wait for the space to be done.  I've been looking for ideas on how to do flower pots outside (I've never done one before!).  I found a picture I like from Joanna Gaine's instagram (from the show Fixer Upper on HGTV). 

I also found a little time to read this weekend.  Maybe I will share my thoughts about what I'm reading in a post.  So, that's about it!  Hoping for some warmer weather this week so we can get outside.

By the way--I only have one child at home at the moment  and it still took me about two hours to finish this post between the nursing, rocking, diaper changing, laundry, and warming up my coffee (3 times)!  That's just how things get done with little ones at home :)  I'm still determined to keep posting though!
