1. My parents, my brother, Daniel and Dj's dad arrived safely here and then left Monday a.m. and arrived safely in IA.
2. Our new floor was installed: mohagany laminate in our kitchen and dining room. (no more carpet in dining room) It's beautiful.
3. We celebrated Baylen's first birthday Sat. night. It was so much fun and he had a great day. Highlights included: a cool camo cake, lots of cool ISU gear, a FUN collection of plaid shorts, a basketball hoop and a sandbox.
4. I went shopping with my mom this weekend. We shopped until we dropped. Literally.
5. Baylen is teething but surprisingly sleeping well. We put his bumper up in his crib. Dj found a new one on super sale from PBK and it's so plush and nice. He loves it. I love it.
6. Brynn is rockin' the potty-training. She's been staying dry ALL day and napping in her big girl undies for over a week now at daycare. Awesome.
7. Dad and Dj visited the casino Sat. night for some gamblin' action.
8. The yearbook is due March 24. I am stressed to the max but we'll get it done. The kids are really stepping up to help and doing everything I ask of them. Great Journalism class this year.
9. Brynna's time outs have become minimal lately. She's really been a good girl.
10. This weekend was a ton of fun but also very exhausting. I am dragging this week. Every morning I wake up and feel like I have not slept. I need to go to bed earlier. But I never do.
11. Cammy (one of our cats) has been hacking up a storm. Seriously this cat gets hairballs or sneezes constantly.
12. We are out of beer. This is a problem.
13. Baylen has been doing well without bottles during the day. He had one today at daycare but yesterday and rest of week, NONE all day (with exception of morning and evening bottles). We'll be working on transitioning away from morning bottle next and finally that night bottle before bed. I think that bottle is going to be the hardest to get rid of.
14. Baylen has also "officially" moved into the Waddlers next door at daycare. He's loving being with the movers but is exhausted by the time he gets home. He's doing well with one nap after lunch and usually naps about 3 hours during that time.
15. I still need to fill out my brackets for NCAA tourneys. I am SO going to win this year. It's my turn. After 3 years of losing, I need to get back on top. :)
16. I am hoping the UW Huskies go FARRRR in the tourney. The team is SO GOOD this year.
17. The ISU women got screwed on where they are playing their games this year in first couple of rounds...not cool.
18. Brynn did really well with understanding it was Baylen's birthday party and not hers. Despite that, she still received a couple of little gifts so she didn't feel left out.
19. I have meetings rest of the week and on Friday, I'm presenting with one of my favorite colleagues in front of part of our staff and we're presenting on student accountable talk. Looking forward to it.

Looks like Baylen didn't mind his party hat and enjoyed his cake.
You've got lots going on!
