Weekly recap.

Recapping the week on the blog! Iron supplements, bourbon, Shamrock Shuffle, and St. Patrick’s Day!

Monday March 11
Started the morning with a workout on the Nike Fit App! We started Huxley on an iron supplement from the results of his bloodwork. He drinks a ton of milk, so they recommended to cut down on the milk and add an iron supplement. So I went to Kroger, and behind the pharmacy counter they had the Enfamil brand liquid drops of iron. We added it to his milk he gets in the morning, and he wasn’t a fan. Going to give it a few days and see how it goes.

Tuesday March 12
When Huxley woke up in the morning, his jammie shirt was all tangled up, and noticed he had a few rash spots on his back. Worked out. After Hadley got home from school, she almost always changes into her softball pants for practice, and then we took a short walk since it was so nice out. Hadley wore her sunglasses she got for Christmas to practice, she cracks me up!

Wednesday March 13
Another workout in the morning! Some days when I do the walking workouts, I’ll get up to 5k steps before lunch time! After school, Hadley did her homework and then played with Huxley. She plays so well with him, and he loves every minute! For bedtime, Huxley will occasionally stall the process and hangout in his closet or behind the chair in his room.

Thursday March 14
I wasn’t a fan of the workout this day, it was like a robot doing the moves! It didn’t feel real. Hadley had an early dismissal from school, and softball practice was cancelled due to weather, so we had a free night!

Friday March 15
After four days of Huxley breaking out with these random rash spots, we switched him from the liquid iron to these gummies. I found some on Amazon, and after reading the ingredients they are very similar except the gummies have a little less iron in them than the liquid does. And he took the gummies no problem this morning, we make everything with medicine sort of fun and praise him for taking them so good. Kevin and his brother went to a few bourbon breweries in Kentucky today! They did a tour of one and came home with a few new ones to add to the collection. After Huxley went to bed, we had a movie night and watched the Taylor Swift Eras Tour on Disney+! I’ll share more later this week!

Saturday March 16
Started the morning with a 5k walk called the Shamrock Shuffle! We joined my Mom, and had pretty good weather, chilly, but good. Huxley was great as usual, with all of those people to look at, and all the dogs that walked, he had plenty to be distracted by. And Hadley did amazing for walking 3 miles with us! Afterwards, we hungout around the little booths and then grabbed some lunch. When we got home, I noticed my FitBit reached 10k steps! Hadley and Huxley both took a nap, and I just chilled and relaxed. After everyone woke up, we went to a local park and played. It was crowded since it was so nice out!

Sunday March 17
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Started the morning with my favorite face mask cream! Worked out, tried to find an Irish themed one and this is what came up. Old lady workouts, so I improvised. Cinnamon rolls for breakfast, put a few sprinkles on top because I forgot to do green icing! After breakfast, the kids and I went to Kroger and got some steak, asparagus, & potatoes for dinner later. For St. Patricks Day this year, I did very little decor. I guess it was the luck of the Irish, but the hubs finally took down the Christmas lights! Don’t worry, they’ve been turned off, but still! We’ve had an ongoing joke with our neighbors about it, so I asked the neighbor to whip out a lawn chair so he did with a cooler! It was the funniest thing! After dinner, I had a few games to play with Hadley for the holiday. Would you rather, she made a shamrock shake, and her favorite a scavenger hunt!
