Recapping our week on the blog! No school, doctor visit, softball, and the Bengals game!
Monday September 11
Started the week with working out in the basement, and then had a me day. I got my nails done, walked around Target, and hit up TJ Maxx. It was so nice; I almost didn’t know what to do with myself being all alone, but I soaked every second of it all up. And then, around one o’clock in the afternoon, we got a school wide text saying the water main has been broken, messed up, whatever, and we need to pick up our kid as soon as we can. So, on my way home from being out all day, I drove by my daughter’s school and parents were already picking up kids, so we all loaded up in the truck and headed to school. After school, we headed to Sam’s and got some stuff we need for the house. Kevin and Hadley went to Natalie’s high school volleyball game, and Hadley made a friend just chilling at the top of the bleachers.

Worked out in the morning, and then went to the doctors for Hadley. She had no school again for the water main break, so she was home with us! She’s been having some foot pain in her one heel, so we got it checked out. The doctor diagnosed her with Severs disease, which is super common in young kids that are active in sports. The doc recommended we get gel heel inserts for her shoes, take ibuprofen as needed, and ice / rest her foot. I had a phone interview in the afternoon, and my best girl Hadley entertained Huxley in his crib with toys galore, and just kept him occupied while I was on the phone. She is seriously the best! And then she had softball practice, and then that’s it!
Wednesday September 13
Another day of Hadley being at home, water main break still not fixed! We love it when she’s home, especially Huxley! Went to Dunkin Donuts for breakfast, as part of Hadleys small reward for watching Huxley the day before for my phone interview. She got two donuts with sprinkles, I got a chai tea latte, which I think Starbuck’s is ten times better, and Huxley tried the munchin donut holes. And then we ate lunch in the family room, while watching the movie Elemental, it was so cute! I don’t think I will ever not like kid movies, I’ve always loved them!
Thursday September 14
Back to school finally, the water main is fixed! Hadley chose to read a little on the way to school, even though it takes us minutes to get there. Worked out after we dropped off Hadley and did the normal everyday house stuff. For school pickup, I got Huxley out of his car seat since we got there a little early and let him play in the car. That boy loves to push every button in the van! My Mom came over to hangout, and to get the routine down of feeding Huxley dinner and putting him to bed since she was going to be watching him Friday night for Hadley’s softball games.
Friday September 15
Worked out in the morning! Before dinner, both my mom and Dad came over for my mom to watch Huxley since Hadley has double headers every Friday night and they are way too late for Huxley to be at. So, my mom stayed home and watched him, while my dad went with us to the games. Kevin was at the firehouse this night. The first game was a little hot, as we were sitting directly in the sun. She plays so well, and I just love watching her be so happy in this sport. The second game started around 7:45pm, and it got cold quick. I brought leggings and a jacket to put on, and I’m so glad I did because it got into the 50’s at night! Meanwhile back at home, Huxley ate dinner, had a bath, and went to bed so good for my mom.
Saturday September 16
I don’t know if it was the late-night cold temperatures, or just being out later the night before at softball, but I was completely zonked Saturday morning. We pretty much chilled on the couch all day off and on. Went to the store to get some groceries for the Bengals game the next day. Kevin worked a detail at the UC Bearcats football game, he was on the roof inspecting the fireworks. And then after Huxley went to bed, Hadley and I watched Monsters Inc. Was a good chill day.
Sunday September 17
Kevin worked another detail at Oktoberfest, and then my parents came over to watch the Bengals game! It’s hard to be a Bengals fan sometimes, but we still cheer them on!
Happy Monday everyone, have a great week! And as always, thanks for reading!
