Winter made a comeback last week and I did not like it. On a more positive note, I did finally recover from my bout with the flu.

Here’s a look into my week here in Mommyland.

Sunday.

I was able to go into work for a few hours Sunday morning thanks to one of my coworkers helping me out by coming in early. When I got home, Logan had a little surprise for me. The boys went to Target when I was gone and Logan picked this super cute water bottle out for me.

He’s my sweet baby.

 Monday.

Monday morning work date with Bill. We had proposals to do and the world to dominate.

I LOVE my new iPad Pro with Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard by the way.

Tuesday.

It’s freezing cold out and my child decides that a light hoodie was acceptable to wear to the bus stop. As he complained about the cold I was sure to tell him, “I told you so”.

I’ve begun to pick my battles and if he wants to freeze his ass of, that’s on him.

Wednesday.

Have you ever had one of those days where you just want to sit and eat everything that’s not nailed down? That was me on Wednesday.

Cameron was saving his Cadbury egg for last and I swooped in and ate it while he was at school. Mother of the Year here! Thanks Cameron, it was delicious. Oh, it took him two days to realize it was missing so I don’t feel too bad about eating it.

Thursday.

Thursday sucked! It was cold and rainy but in the evening the rain went away and left behind this super bright double rainbow.

The photo seriously doesn’t do justice to the beauty of this rainbow.

Friday.

When did this kid get so grown up? He’s 7 going on 17.

We took the kids out for dinner on Friday night. The place has a bunch of different food vendors and you pick what you want then have a seat. It’s very family friendly so we give the kids a little more room to be kids. Poor Logan coughs a lot when he gets excited or runs around too much (not that he was running around), he’s got this nasty, barking cough. He and Cameron were screwing around taking funny photos of each other and Logan started that cough. Long story a bit shorter some woman decided to butt in where she had no business and comment about him being sick. When I told her he wasn’t sick she chucked all kinds of attitude at me because she didn’t believe me. I ended up (quietly) telling her off as we were leaving where she proceeded to give me the excuse that she was concerned because SHE gets sick easily.

Here’s are two tips for all of you out there. First, mind your damn business! It is not your concern what other people do with their kids unless they are giving them a beatdown. Second, if YOU get sick easily, STAY HOME!

Saturday.

April 9th and it snowed all day long. We had to drive into Philadelphia to pick up race packets for our half marathon and this is the crap we encountered. The roads were a bit dicey in spots because no one was prepared for the snow.

Seeing this on the day before a race did not leave me feeling excited to run.

That’s my week in a nutshell.

This week I’m hoping for warmer weather and a little more motivation to be the rock star I know I can be.

I hope you have a wonderful week.

What started out as a pretty decent week quickly turned on me. It started with birthday fun and ended sick in bed.

Sunday.

I shared my birthday with Easter this year. Instead of dinner at home I asked to go out. I had asked to go to Outback (since we had to take the kids) but the boys surprised me with a trip to my favorite place, The Melting Pot. There were lots of smiles and laughs, it was the prefect birthday.

Monday.

The week continued on a high note when the boys came home from school with their spring photos. I think these are probably the best school pictures I’ve ever seen.

Seriously though, when did my babies get so grown up?

Tuesday.

I can’t remember the last time I read an actual book made of paper, I usually read on my iPad. When Bill brought this (autographed) book home from the original Starbucks store I thought I’d give it a read.

It’s really good! It’s a business book that reads more like a best seller. As soon as I started reading it I saw so many parallels to our business that I told Bill he should read it too.

Wednesday.

Since I had to be at work early Thursday morning I needed to get my Thursday work out of the way Wednesday night.

When this photo was taken I wasn’t feeling very well and an hour later I felt like death and needed to find someone willing to work for me. Little did I know what was to come.

Thursday.

I spent most of Thursday wishing for death. As I consulted my WebMD app I realized that I probably had the flu. In a desperate attempt at some relief I rolled this bad boy all over.

Friday.

I went to the doctor Friday and it was confirmed, I have the flu. I will never skip my flu shot again.

Thankfully I have my little buddy to keep me company because being sick is very lonely when you don’t want to get anyone else in your house sick too. Cooper has been at my side the entire time, it’s like he knows I don’t feel well so he here for me.

Saturday.

God help me! We took the kids to Target to pick out something they would like and Logan got his hands on a Despicable Me “Fart Gun”. He was dancing in the aisle making fart noises before finally doing this.

If you don’t have little boys in your life, this is what it sometimes looks like.

It was a long, tough week and I look forward to having a much better week this week. Hopefully I’ll start feeling a little more like myself and be able to catch up on everything I didn’t accomplish last week.

I hope you have a spectacular week.
