It all started with the YW president taking off out of town very last minute, so lucky me, our last minute Valentine's day candy bouquet camp fundraiser landed in my lap. That meant getting people to sign up, breaking down how many supplies we needed, and picking up those supplies (with the help of Diana too). Then we got to assemble them on Wednesday night, which meant I got to be the task master and I get to deliver 35 of them on Saturday morning (well, at least half of them anyways. Thankfully our secretary volunteered to do a portion of them too... thanks Sarah!!!), not to mention tote them around in my car until then. That was task numero uno that I got to do. Second is New Beginnings. Yes, our YW are "supposed" to be in charge, but that just means more work for me... checking in on them, making sure they are on task, checking in on them again, and then finally doing everything because nobody followed through with their assignments. So I get to print off our script for our "skit", make a program, find the mission impossible theme song and download that and burn onto a cd, and make a dessert. That's all before next Wednesday.
In the meantime, my property manager failed to mention to me that she was planning an open house for our property this weekend, Friday & Saturday, until it came up just in passing on Tuesday. How do you forget to tell the person who has to be in charge about an open house?! Honestly. So, I have been frantically getting three units ready (which they still aren't and the open house has already started), buying refreshments, ordering balloons, printing off flyers, posting open house ads online, and then finally setting everything up. Not to mention that the open house is not during my normal business hours. My property manager is awesome!
In between all this we had our playgroup V-day party on Monday, held our own "open gym" with Rachel and her triplets on Wednesday, had Ben and Sharon over for dinner last night (sorry about the bumps on your boys!), and filed our taxes today. That was a definite bright spot in our week!! Yay for being poor, but still making a little money, having a student, and two kids!! BONUS!
There have been a few stressful moments, but all in all the week flew by and I'll be super grateful when all those candy bouquets are delivered tomorrow and the open house is over. *sigh*
At our own little open gym. Carter and Andi took turns pushing each other on the bike. It made mom's job a lot easier!
Carter got a little confused at nap time and ended up in Andi's purple heart pajamas:
The kids at dinner last night. They look like an AT&T commercial, "more bars in more places":

Oh man, you shouldnt have to do all that stuff in your condition. You should just be taking it easy. Whoever put all this in your lap obviously has never been pregnant. That's exhausting. You will get it all together though. you're amazing.
Aaaaa, busy week! How do you do all of it, and while you are pregnant?! I only have one toddler, I'm not pregnant, and I'm going crazy with work and my callings. Yet you seem to always keep your cool. How do you do it?!
Whew! Glad this week is over! Hope you can enjoy tonight's Valentines celebration! Love the pic of the AT&T kids! You should send that in - for reals!
I don't know how you do it Dani!! You are wonder woman! We definitely need to make it a weekly thing of going to the gym! What you really need is a nice day at a spa or something!! You deserve it! And the Carter in the purple pjs and the 'bars in more places' is hilarious!!
oh my gosh...the pic of Carter in Andi's pj's is seriously so funny to me. He looks so pathetic in the cutest way! Hope you were able to kick up your feet this weekend and relax!
