A high of the week was definitely doing the Blackwell Dairy Run on Sunday!

Isla can’t wait to run in another race, lol.

A low of the week was my washing machine dying mid-wash on Monday. With a tub FULL of water and soaking wet clothes. Perfect! The culprit? A stinkin’ baby sock. Even after Kyle removed the sock, it still wouldn’t work.

An internet find I loved was this post by Sarah Kallies. It was shared on Facebook by one of my momma friends and I couldn’t agree more with it. There is so much “information” out there today on what’s best for your child and everything is contradictory. My method? Do what works best for YOU. As long as you’re not putting your kid in obvious danger (“Here you go, Norah, play with this carving knife while Mommy has a nap!”), you’re doing just fine.

The best money I spent was $13 on some shorts for Isla. Yay, Costco!

My favourite Isla and/or Norah moment was watching them have some fun at the park on Wednesday. We fed the ducks and geese, met a muskrat, and played on the playground for a bit. After last week’s crumby weather, it was nice to spend some time outside, regardless of my stupid allergies.

The song that has been stuck in my head is “Victorious” by Panic! At the Disco. (Also, am I the only one who thinks they sound a lot like Fall Out Boy?)

My meals of the week were:

Monday: Jambalaya
Tuesday: Meatloaf
Wednesday: Beef stroganoff
Thursday: Cedar planked salmon with this garlic-dijon glaze/sauce.

My plans for the weekend are buying a new washing machine, watching Isla perform in her dance recital, celebrating Kyle and I’s wedding anniversary, and the usual slo-pitch games on Sunday! Whew!

How was your week?
