9/29/16: After work I went to go watch Naomi do her gymnastics practice, she really wanted me to go so I did :) After that I went grocery shopping, bought food for two weeks and still had $20 left over!

9/28/16: I made this creamy, cheesy chicken pasta dish last night. It was super tasty. I figured the kids would like it because it was so cheesy. They did enjoy it, not as much as I hoped though! ha, but they still ate it. Another recipe for later.

9/27/16: Grabbed the kids after work, then we went home because they were excited to read their new books from the book fair!

9/23/16: After school the kids and I went to the dollar store to grab candy for the parade the next day. We grabbed a few things for Brodie's Halloween costume - a ninja! He just needs a black shirt and a red belt.

9/24/16: Naomi was in the downtown Overland Park parade, walking with the Girl Scouts. She and I grabbed some donuts on the way there, walked together passing out candy, and grabbed a snack on the way back to the car. It was a real nice day. We also put her Halloween costume together.

9/25/16: We had a relaxing day, didn't do much at all.

9/26/16: I took the day off to eat lunch with Brodie at school and take him to the school's bookfair. Josh and I both went. Brodie was so surprised and happy we showed up!

9/22/16: Josh worked, the kids were at their dad's...I had the place to myself! Watched some romance movies, took a nap, ate whatever I wanted.. I also made this coconut oil/vitamin E mix for my lashes, in hopes to make them grow longer and thicker. We'll see in about a month. (side note: I really don't need longer or thicker lashes, but I'm just testing to see if it really works)

9/21/16: Yesterday after work/school, the kids and I cleaned. I made a check list and we all completed it together. It was a good thing working together.

9/20/16: Naomi had her first Girl Scouts meeting, it went really well. She'll be in a parade this weekend! I got some good information about my taxes and then we went grocery shopping. It was a good day, we really felt like a family yesterday.

9/19/16: Josh and I went to dinner and then to a movie. We ate at El Patron - pretty tasty - and then watched Sully. It was a good movie. Nice night.

9/16/16: I hung out with my friend Andrea, we went to dinner and then Tapcade. I was able to meet her friend Chris as well. It was a nice night!

9/17/16: Hung out with my friend Megan. We went to dinner and then to a movie, Sausage Party. It was really great hanging out and talking/catching up.

9/18/16: Kids and I bought these blank books from Target and wrote our own little stories last night. They're very silly. They also colored some Halloween decorations, cat heads.

9/15/16: I watched the movie Sisters last night, it stars Tina Fey & Amy Poehler. It is hilarious. Made me miss my sister a lot. I also made dinner, I thought it was great.

9/14/16: It was a pretty chill night with the kids, Naomi actually went to bed early. Brodie and I watched Inspector Gadget on Netflix and just hung out. Nothing too exciting but nothing terrible either.

9/13/16: The day didn't really start off very well... But when I finally got the kids after work, they each put on my cat mask and we laughed. We got home, they did homework and we read a couple books. We mostly spent most of the evening in their room hanging out - the kids and myself. Then my daughter starts laughing and tells me about this little boy in her class who has a crush on her. Apparently he kissed her and held her hand and asked "will you marry me sweet Naomi". She was laughing so much about it. I asked what she said and she told me she just laughed. Funny stuff.

9/12/16: Josh and I tried a new BBQ place in town, it was all right. Then met up with some friends for pickleball, which he played and I didn't. Then just spent the evening together. He also surprised me with a cat mask and it really surprised me.

9/9/16: Kids and I had a lazy weekend, my anxiety/depression was kind of getting to me this weekend so we didn't do much. Friday we just hung out watched TV.

9/10/16: Saturday we took the kids to a few different parks, almost every place we went to had a birthday party going on. They enjoyed the parks and got their energy out.

9/11/16: Sunday I was just so tired, stayed in bed most of the day. Kids were good, Naomi made a craft she is going to take to school on Friday for show and tell. :)

9/8/16: Naomi had her first gymnastics practice and she loved it! I hope it is something that she stays with doing. It was fun watching her. I also made this delicious pizza last night, it was so tasty! Totally impressed myself.

9/7/16: Kids weren't too bad after school, they seemed pretty tired. I made pasta (which I have dubbed Wednesday's as pasta night in the house!) and we watched some movies. After the kids went to bed I caught a couple new Pokemon I hadn't caught before! haha I then tried to play a trick on Josh by putting a fake spider outside the door on the wall, but it didn't get him... Maybe it will get the neighbor though.. :)

9/2/16: Friday I stayed home and mostly got caught up on sleep. It was nice.

9/3/16: Saturday I went with a couple friends, Keri & Andrea, to get their noses pierced. Then we had a couple drinks afterwards. It was nice hanging out and having some girl time.

9/4/16: Sunday was a pretty lazy day. I decorated the house for Halloween, that was fun!

9/5/16: Monday we went Pokemon hunting. Walked around a lot.

9/6/16: Yesterday grabbed the kids, then we took them to a park let them get all their energy out. It was a nice night. Josh got groceries, did laundry, and made us dinner. I baked cookies.

9/1/16: I made 'edible sugar cookie dough' last night, so it was eggless. It was really good, but a lot of sugar. I also made these ham steak sandwiches earlier in the day and they were great. :)

8/31/16: Took the kids to Costco after school. They loved the free samples and every time they'd finish they'd turn to the sample people and say "great samples, thank you!" They were very impressed how big Costco is! ha, made me laugh. :)
