Weekend, no fun!

I finally uploaded some pictures of us on the beach. Carter and I have been under the weather this weekend but luckily Lee has been a trooper and took care of us. Carter has an ear infection and I had another sinus infection with Strep throat. What the heck, why do I get that at least 5 times a year. I don't get it. Anyway we had a long weekend of watching movies and cooking shows while laying around eating soup. I love Ina Garten, I want her to come and cook for me, wait no...I want to go to her house in the Hampton's and have her cater to me. She makes yummy stuff. I also watched Steve (something?) cant remember his name, anyway I think the show was called BBQ university on PBS. He makes unbelievable BBQ, my mouth was watering this weekend while I was coughing up my lungs in between blowing my nose. Ahhh good times, not really! I also watched the Nightmare before Christmas. Its kinda scary for being a kids movie but Carter for some reason or another really enjoys the music in the movie so what could I do. As you all know Sunday is football so I can't even remember how many games we watched. We don't really ever watch TV that much one I don't like Carter to be in front of the TV that much  and two cause there are so many other things to do that I think are better so it was kind of nice.

I am getting excited for the fall holidays approaching! I'm so looking forward to going to a pumpkin patch up north with the Spataro family- Armondo, Maureen, and baby Leela. I love the fall time. My good friend Rachel and I are ready to get our craft on. She is my crafter in crime. lol!! My other good friend Lynn is also getting to be very crafty so it should be fun making some fall decor. Ah just the thought of fall makes me want pumpkin pie, a scarf, and a pumpkin to stare at. Oh well lots to do, blog ya later!!

Getting Life In Order...kinda!

Things have been a little hectic lately! I have a highly energetic one year old so trying to find time to get things done has been tough. I've got to get myself organized. I need daily to-do list, weekly meal planning, laundry and chore list, grocery shopping list, etc... On top of this I work Monday through Thursday from 9-5. I need peace and order!! If anyone has any ideas please feel free to share. I bought myself an organizer as my sister recommended but I got overwhelmed filling it in, I immediately closed it and started this blog post!

Anyway we had Carters first birthday party with lots of 2 and 3 year olds...CRAZY!! Carter had a good time though. I will post pics soon. We also took our first family vacation to San Diego which Carter had a great time and loved loved the beach! He has no fear of the water and loved playing in the sand. I joined MOPS (mothers of preschoolers international), it will be lots of fun for Carter to have new little friends and it will be nice to get some support and fellowship from women who are raising kids and trying to do it all. Lots of things going on, I will post all the pics and fun stories in the next few weeks.
