The kids went to school for 2 whole days this week, which was the first week back after vacation. We had Thursday off because it was snowing all day. We have Friday off because the wind is terrible and all the shoveling I did today was useless. Then it’s the weekend again. Hopefully by Sunday we can go back to our regularly scheduled activities because this house is starting to feel REALLY small. I might have ordered 12 different kinds of organizing storage container today because if I have to be trapped inside all the time at least it’s going to be in a clean house.
Here is some of what we did today.

We had a storm Sunday night. I ended up sleeping on the couch because it was so windy and loud on the top floor where my bedroom is. Then the cable and internet were out. Then the basement flooded. On the other hand, we didn’t lose power here at the house, but because it was out in other towns our super crazy busy afternoon ended up being a pretty relaxed afternoon. I’m still so tired I almost fell asleep in the McDonald’s drive thru.
Sunday:
My little pirate tried her first macaron
The face is part of the costume, he liked the cookie
Why does Linc look like he’s 10?
Monday:
Literally the only photo on my camera roll from this day
Tuesday:
Playing trucks while we wait for the bus
Package protector
I bought 4 of these in August when I heard they might be popular. I guess they’re not THAT popular.
Wednesday:
Hello gorgeous
He’s getting so LONG
Things that went through the washing machine this week
Thursday:
HUGS
Friday:
Caroline’s teacher suggested she might want a retake. Caroline couldn’t figure out why, she LOVES her picture. So we’re keeping it.
Fell asleep face down in the cookies.
Saturday:
Fancy fall hair
My little monkies on their favorite boat
He demanded I take this photo
I have this horrible cough that will not go away. I think it’s allergies causing post-nasal drip that’s clogging up my lungs, but whatever it is it’s ruining my week. I have these coughing fits that sound like I’m an old-fashioned lady dying of consumption. It causes a pounding headache and keeps me from sleeping. MOST of the time I’m totally fine and don’t feel sick at all, but then I get hit with an episode. Too bad I can’t take the nighttime cough meds during the day, That stuff is amazing.

What day is it? Where am I? When was this? All the weeks seem both a million years ago and like they are still happening right now.
Sunday:
Sleeeeeeepy baby
This is Lincoln running away because I am the meanest
The kids are doing yoga right now while I am typing this recap
Monday:
Pajamas on the porch
When he outgrows these boots, he’ll go barefoot forever
MORE NAPS
Tuesday:
Picking up Brutus at the vet
Stupid bug bite turned into an INSANE rash
WHY AREN’T YOU SLEEPING NOW?
Wednesday:
Sure, that’s normal.
Someone wasn’t getting enough attention
Thursday:
Sick, miserable kiddo
Friday:
Back to the doctor for some prednisone
SAVE ME HALO TOP
Farmer’s market night
Saturday:
The price I pay for sleeping in for half an hour
Corn maze adventure
Caroline does handstands, Finn shares his juice
The weather went from being full-time amazing to rainy and dark and it reminds me that in a couple weeks daylight savings will end and it will be dark by the time the kids get home from school. AND THEN WE STILL HAVE TO GO TO ALL OUR ACTIVITIES. I do not love this part of the year in New England. At least in a few weeks I can start on Christmas and that will cheer me up.

I’ve been using my phone to keep children quiet, so it’s often a) dead b) busy or c) so filthy I can’t use the camera. It reminded me that when I started this project three hundred and sixty weeks ago it was funny more than serious. They weren’t supposed to be GOOD pictures. So right now, bad is mostly what I have.
Sunday:
Not a black eye, a mosquito bite.
Rewatching all of Game of Thrones, because why not
Monday:
The days are long
Sweetness
Good kitty. I swear the older she gets the smaller she gets.
Tuesday:
THE INFAMOUS BUNCHEMS INCIDENT
Couch climber
Back naps!
Wednesday:
Faaaaaaaaaaall
Tiny pumpkins for a tiny boy
Thursday:
Ready for picture day! Except we were a week early.
They both love this game
Our town hall is cool
Friday:
My baby is cooler than me
He literally carries her around half the day but she still loves him
Saturday:
I really wish I could have gotten the geese flying OVER the moon
Ordering groceries and watching Outlander
My life is very exciting, if by exciting you mean incredibly mundane, normal, average and boring. It’s busy, for sure, but I’m starting to feel like my poor kids barely leave the state and I should really try to travel more. But then I remember traveling with kids is terrible so it’s back to the couch I go.

I AM ONLY ONE WEEK BEHIND NOW IT’S A MIRACLE. But now I really really need to stop blogging and do some work on this birthday party I’m throwing on Saturday so I probably won’t really catch up for another 3 weeks.
Sunday:
KNUFFLE BUNNY
Screen zombies. It’s getting old.
Monday:
Big bottle for a little baby
Standard tv watching in our house
Tuesday:
Rose garden sun dial
Maybe it’s time to get him some shoes
Wednesday:
This is Finn’s favorite game
Skeptical I REALLY need all this stuff at the craft store
GET TO WORK, CHILD LABORERS
Thursday:
Toddler for sale, everyday low price
Finding rocks and hiding rocks
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, BABY?
Friday:
Waiting for blood draws is exhausting
More rock painting
My new blanket for the USS Virgina. TIMELY.
Saturday:
Mad Scientist station at Cousin Camp
Custom made pizzas
Borrowing a neighbor’s swimming pool to end our awesome camp day
My parents are here to help with party stuff and I am SO unprepared. This is not going to be my best party. At this point I’m going to be impressed if there’s a cake and no construction actively occurring. Have I mentioned that I am TOTALLY OVER having people in and out of my house and not having a working full bathroom?
I don’t care what breaks in this money next – I’m throwing a tarp over it and ignoring the problem forever. NO MORE HOME IMPROVEMENTS. EVER.
