Plan With Me for 1/28-2/3

admin

This week’s “Before The Pen” in all three places 😂 Technically it’s two since the insert and Bujo are both in my Chic Sparrow Deluxe Claire Outlander! Yellow Paper House is my desk planner, love the combo of weekly and dot grid, I don’t feel so constrained! My Chic Sparrow travelers notebook goes everywhere with me in my purse for on-the-go planning and notes/journaling! I’ve decided I really need to buckle down and use some of these sticker kits I’ve been hoarding so I busted out a few adorable ones from Pink Limeade Designs – loving them both. The bullet journal spread is flamingos, because, well, why the hell not. 😂😂😂

MOM POST coming next for those of you who could care less about my planner!! 😂😂

I’ll have one of everything on the menu please…. make that two.

That time you’ve been waiting almost two days for two different pharmacies to get their acts together and get you your prescribed steroids, then when you finally get them at 8:30pm and take the whole day’s dose at the recommendation of the pharmacist….

…and then you’re wide awake at 12:30am ready to clean the whole house, walk the dog, organize your craft room, and hungry enough to eat a bear and ask for a moose or something for seconds.

😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️😂

These kids today…

Lawdhavemercy these kids are giving me a run for my money today!

———————

Tatum: “Mommy, do you have a camera in the playroom?”

Me: “Yes, why?”

Tatum: “Are you watching the camera Mommy?”

Me: “Yes, why?”

Tatum: “Can you not watch it for a few minutes?”

Um…. no, child, and you need to work on your sneaky because that ain’t gonna cut it. 😂

———————-

Five minutes later it’s all of a sudden super quiet, which any mom worth her salt knows is NOGOOD and I walk into the kitchen to find her with her arm up to her elbow in the fish tank.

“WHAT are you DOING?!?”

“Leekie wanted me to pet him….”

One of the gazillion things I never thought I’d ever say pops out: “Fish don’t like being petted, leave him alone”

*sigh*

These kids need out of the house – I just need to get over this freaking bronchitis first!

Baby? What baby?

admin

Wyatt has started a new thing where he runs as fast as his chubby little legs will take him into another room yet when you come in to get him literally 2 seconds behind he’s nowhere to be found.

He likes to hide now. 😂😂

I don’t see any baby?

It’s hilarious but it also freaked me out because the first time he did it was behind the French door in our bedroom and I literally had no idea where he was for a couple seconds while I frantically searched the room. I was all “wtf? He JUST came in here?!?”

I’ve also been working on my BuJo tonight trying to get it going for the year. For you non-Planner nerds that’s a “Bullet Journal” – a really fun and creative way to stay organized and on task (and really just another reason for me to buy more stuff lol).

I’m especially loving the “Shark Week” tracker, but don’t let that gross you out, fellas, it’s just a fact of life.

Everyone but hubby in the house has caught Baby Wyatt’s “man cold” so there’s really not much interesting stuff coming out of this house to post about so I guess I’ll end it here, but make SURE you enter the giveaway before it ends on the @MindYourBiscuitsTX Instagram for the Leather Quill travelers notebook and I’ll also leave this pic of the “original Biscuit” or as we like to call her “#NerdDog” right here for your enjoyment. 😂

Giveaway!!!!

Two peas in a pod…. or a Keenz.

Headed up to ye ol’ flea market in McKinney this morning with my SAHM bestie Amber and her kiddo.  Since Tatum was in “school” today I just had Wyatt so I decided to take the “Fancy Wagon” – number one because it’s freaking awesome and I love it, and number two because I’m constantly entertained by the amount of attention it gets.  Not the cute kids inside, but the actual stroller.

“Where did you get THAT?” – “That’s the most amazing wagon EVER!” – So on and so forth.  I’ve seriously NEVER had a time I’ve been using it out in public that at LEAST 6 people haven’t stopped me to comment on it or ask questions.

The MOST amazing wagon on Earth!

So we loaded up the adorable kids and set out to enjoy the morning before the cold front sweeps in.

I learned a lesson today – unlike Canton, McKinney Trade Days is NOT really the most amazing flea market on a Friday.

It was kind of “meh” and Wyatt was getting fussy because he’s working on a Man Cold so we headed to lunch and then home.

HOWEVER, even though the flea market was totally a ghost town, that STILL didn’t stop multiple people from commenting and asking about the wagon.  It’s seriously entertaining.

It’s not for the faint of heart price-wise, BUT if you consider what you’d pay for as well made of a double stroller it’s really not that bad.  PLUS it has a ridiculous load of accessories including ceiling fans, rain covers, mosquito netting, coolers (which come included!) etc. that make it so much MORE amazing than it already is!  It has 5 point padded harnesses on both sides AND it’s allowed in Disney.  Enough said!  Check it out here!!!  (Affiliate Link!)

Make sure you check the awesome accessories too!  We have a bunch of them.  LOL

I’m the Mom. Just assume I’m never wrong.

Why “work” when you can play with me??? — The BiscuitDog aka “NerdDog”

Today was rather uneventful but I did make myself feel like a badass by taking the kids out of the house BY MYSELF.  If you’re a mom of multiples you know how daunting this is. And…… AND….. I took them to lunch too.  Granted, it was McAllister’s, and not somewhere more fancy, but NO ONE DIED y’all, and that is YUGE!  Even more huge than THAT?  The four year old actually ate something.  Badass.  It’s now my middle name.

I also took them to Home Goods, which almost broke the “No One Died” streak as my daughter kept asking for another “stuffy” to add to her collection of almost seven thousand stuffed animals, but we made it through and actually relatively cheaply considering my love affair with Home Goods….

After Daddy got home we took the kids to Michael’s (the sticker store in four year old vocab) where somehow I got talking into hand-making valentine’s cards for all the little toddler terrorist’s friends.  *sigh*  SUCH a sucker, especially for crafty things.

Back home to my MOST DREADED CHORE – folding hubby’s undershirts.  I HATE folding the whites.  It’s better now that he wears dark colored socks and not white ones, but those damn undershirts are ALWAYS inside out, never fold correctly, and I just hate it.  Bleh. Go naked.  Seriously…..

 

Total Planner Nerd Post!!

admin

I LOVE planning. I love everything about it. From the feeling organized (even if you’re not, it’s a great feeling to have!) to the decorating with washi, stickers, and whatnot, to the gorgeous options for leather Travelers notebooks, and so on and so forth.

I also love the planner subscription boxes. The little surprise “gift” to myself in my mailbox each month is my little guilty “mom” pleasure. I’ve really had to downsize my subscriptions because if you know me then you know my “Go BIG or go home” mentality in allthethings but I got my last monthly box from Lauren Phelps Designs and I wanted to share it because it really is gorgeous!

I’m going to apologize now for the crappy lighting, but the kids are finally asleep and this is the time I have to myself, so I deal with whatever lighting I have on hand. 😉

I really love her designs, and I fell in love with her artwork for her October kit (I’m a total freak for pumpkins!) and decided to order a few boxes!  This is the January kit for 2019 and it has all kinds of goodies from washi, to stickers, to gorgeous papers that I’ll use for scrapbooking and whatnot.

I’ll admit I haven’t figured out the sequins yet.  Eventually I’m going to make shaker dashboards out of them, and I even bought ALLTHETHINGS to make shaker dashboards, but alas, laziness consumes me sometimes… (or maybe it’s just motherhood…. either way, I’m tired.)

One of these posts I’ll share some “Plan With Me” videos, but I’m waiting for my little iPhone tripod to come in so I can be all official-like, and so you can’t really see my face (because no one really wants that), and so my nervously shaking hands won’t make you motion sick.  Because that could totally happen.

Also, isn’t it ironic that I couldn’t even fill up a day on a planner when I was working full time, yet now that I’m the stay-at-home mom of two that planner is jammed?  Funny how that works…. LOL!
