December 20

Today for our kindness advent we took cookies and treats to our pediatrician’s office.  Here’s the deal people…our pediatrician is the bomb dignity.  I remember when I first found out I was pregnant with Harper one of the first things my mom told me was she had the perfect pediatrician as a client of hers.  She told me I HAD to use him…she was pretty much putting her “mom” foot down.  I’ve always been a little stubborn and told her I’d think about it.  The more I read and heard from others about Dr. Eidson, I quickly realized Mom was right.  And I have since been just thrilled to have him care for all our kiddos.  His entire office is crazy awesome.  They are kind and loving and caring.  They totally deserve cookies.

All the kids started out helping with the baking, but then there was some fighting and tears and gnashing of teeth and yeah, then some kids were sent to bed.  It started off all magical and sweet and ended with me wanting to curse.  It’s not really Christmas until there’s crying and cursing right?!?!?!

Amon still completely loves the kitchen aid mixer which is easily my favorite baking utensil along with my cookie scoop.

For tomorrow’s kindness we are babysitting.  Yeah, Harper and I are pretty pumped about having a baby girl in our care for a bit.

So I’m pretty excited about the weekend.  I have dinner planned with some sweet friends tonight.  And Harper’s last day of school was today.  I just sat in Susan’s classroom thinking how light I felt.  I have almost all my shopping done and not one thing on my to-do list.  I have a few projects in mind and all of Harper’s end of school stuff is finished with.  It just feels good.  Light.  I like it.  Huddy, Sol and I are currently laying on the couch watching Monster University.  I like today a lot.  Here’s to a fantastic weekend.  Hope everyone enjoys it.

Happy Friday.
