Had some much needed alone time this weekend..

what a busy fun weekend.. I absolutely love weekends, always filled with stuff i actually wanna do instead of things I have to do, lol.. Friday was a pretty laid back evening I decided to try out some new recipes, which turned out great along with a few glasses of wine and some couch time.. I made mini pineapple upside down cakes which are my all time favorite, they turned out fantastic.. I'll have to post the recipe once I relocate it.. It's a must try..

Saturday- Austin had a basketball game and so my hubby was sweet enough to take Austin and Ethan over to fairbury so i didn't have to drag Ella out in the cold.. He's been a great help lately with stuff like this because I hate getting out in this crappy wintery stuff..Then we actually got us a sitter for an evening out at Jim's steak house for a friends appreciation night.. Had a good time with some wine and good food.. I am so lucky to have some great babysitters that will watch the kids for some much needed adult time out.. I think that sometimes we all get wrapped up in being a parent that we never take time out to be with our significant others or just be by ourselves, which i believe everyone needs to do every now and then..

Sunday:  well lets just say I had a slight hang over, hehe.. However i ran to Champaign for some shopping and just "me" time.. I actually missed having Ella there as my shopping partner since she usually is but like i said before it's too cold to drag them out if we don't have to.. I got Ella her outfit and mine for her 6 month pictures on Tuesday.. K design has a place in Champaign now so we are gonna go check that out, they are great photographers :) Basically that sums up my weekend .. Im sure not everyone cares what i do every day but "hey it's something to write about, lol"  If you don't like it don't read it i guess.. I like to hear about everyones day or weekend but thats just me.. I'm always curious how other moms function through the chaos of parenthood...

I'll be posting (hopefully) another blog today or tomorrow about baby food making.. Every parent should do it, its so much easier and cheaper... I'm a little addicted to it i think...

have a good evening.. :)
