Social Butterfly. Busy Bee.

Our recent life scheduling has been busy (for us) to say the least.  It's fun and chaotic and I'm still trying to find my happy medium.  I have to have a nice balance or I'll feel totally swamped or really lonely.  Since the New Year we've been pretty busy.  So, just in case you wanted a break down of what I've been doing for the past two weeks...here it is ;)

Sunday Jan 5th

Dinner with my brother's family.  We're so spoiled and blessed to live near family.

Baked "fried" pickles

Monday Jan 6th

Dinner with Lisa and Ethan at our house.  Again, so spoiled and blessed to live near such wonderful friends.

Tuesday Jan 7th

Dinner at Lisa and Ethan's house.  Jonathan was working late so she cooked for me.  She knows I don't cook ;)

Wednesday Jan 8th

Dinner with Megan and Paul.  My college roomate.  Again, did I say how spoiled and blessed we are to live in this town?  Family, new friends, and old friends too :)

Thursday Jan 9th

Get into our "new" house for the first time.  We're "leasing" our new house for free right now.  It's not as wonderful as it sounds.  Details soon.  But, we're not living there.  Just FYI.

Friday Jan 10th

Mall play with Ethan and Lisa.  Our usual friday play date with Ethan.  His mom Lisa is literally the easiest person to talk to.  I've known her since May but it feels like forever.

Dinner with the Atkinsons.  Love these friends.  Zoe and Georgia have been friends since the time we became pregnant with them.

Saturday Jan 11th

Dinner with most of my family.  It's a must.  At our house this time but my brother cooked.  Super yummy.

Register Georgia for school.  So stressful for me.

Dance mom's night out.  My new ballet class mom friends.  Such a fun group of women and so easy to talk to.

Tuesday Jan 14th

Dinner with my brother's family.  They knew they would cook too much so they had us over ;)
