What we did weekend post 2

Friday:
We left straight from work to go hang out with my parents and ended up spending the night. We watched some movies in the morning,  drank some coffee ans headed home.
Saturday:
Once we got home Jaid ane I took the longest nap since we didnt sleep well on Friday night.  We woke up around dinner, ate and vegged in bed the rest of Saturday night. This entire weekend was meant for being bums.
Sunday: we stayed home, caught up on some laundry and took yet another epic nap. Did I mention my kid is awesome?  I didnt feel well all day and she hung out with me and let me relax.

Monday: (Memorial Day) woke up and got ready pretty quickly.  We went downtown with my dad and he got jaid two pairs of the cutest toms. We grabbed some lunch together and gave Jaid quarters to play games in the pizza place while my dad and I sat and talked forEVER. It was really nice to be able to talk with him without Jaid. She tends to take over every conversation within a mile radius. We headed to my parents to watch some movies for awhile and left to come home in time for a movie or two before we knock out. Oh, on a side note, jaid discovered her love for the original power rangers show. Proud mom moment and childhood flash back burrito served to yours truly.

What We Did Weekend Post 1



Friday:

We went to my parents, went out to dinner. Kept sugars in check!
Stayed the night at my parents house and really just unloaded emotionally. 
I really am grateful to have such an emotional support system that surrounds my daughter and myself.
We just hung out really, surrounded ourselves with love.

Saturday: 

Woke up, ran errands, you know fun grown up junk. ugh. 
Came home and took an epic nap together and crashed out early. It has been so nice being able to really find some solitude again in each other (Jaid and I). We butt heads but when things go really sour in lives, we're so good at really pulling into one another and being one. I love that we always have each other's backs. We have been co-sleeping the last week and it has been so nice, I think we both find a lot of security in it. I am not really worried about her not being able to sleep in her bed or something, Jaid has always been easy to transition back and forth and I have never had a problem getting her to sleep back in her own room. We flip flop often and sometimes she prefers her own room and bed. During life bumps though, we both find it very healing to co-sleep. 

Sunday- 

Jaid and I slept in so late. You guys, like we both opened our eyes at 10:30 kind of late. It was a real dose of heaven. She is like mama, go go go until she crashes. She bodies a lot of her emotions until they have no point but to pour out, which can be exhausting. We got ready pretty quick and ran out the door for a visit with baby Jaycob. I wish I could tap into the emotions of that but I have not even began to process all of that. We were all happy to visit though. My parents ate Del taco which I kind of have a weak spot for...I mean have you guy tried their flat bread tacos? ugh. So delish. It didn't appeal to me though, I ended up hoping out while everyone went through the drive through and I ran into GNC to get some Quest Bars. Usually I prepare a shake and have a bar or two in my bag. Nope. I ran out pretty quick. I felt good though and I knew if I ate the shitty food I would be paying for it with my body. 

After our visit with the baby, Jaid and I headed over to the Art Bar for Jessie's Art Drop.
It was really nice to be around people who are like minded.
People who know the value of GOOD organic healthy food.
Other people who dream of the same kind of living.
People I can simply relate to. 
We did art, and babbled on and on about co-ground living, yurts, parenting, life styles.
It really was a good thing for me. 



Now Jaid and I are just cleaning up and cuddling up, spending the rest of our night preparing for the week to come.
