Happy “Dada’s Day” Weekend and a Camaro?
(8) Comments
{iPhone pics included}
As we do most weekends, packed up the Camaro (psych!) Ford Edge (like shoving 1,000lbs. of toddler “you-know-what” into a 2lb. bag) and made the 200+ mile trip into NJ (for one night) to see our family.
We celebrated “Dada’s Day” (’cause that’s what the iTwins call him) with my hub’s family (including his brother’s family) at his parent’s house.
It was a sneak-peek into the week we’re going to be spending with “all of them” (all 7 children and 8 adults total) at the Outer Banks in NC for our newly-traditional family reunion in two weeks (just add many more sandy feet and got-sun-screen-in-my-eyes screaming children). You best belive my Margarita Machine is coming with.
We’re going to need a heftier supply of 
that’s for sure!
The kids built this gem in .02596 seconds yesterday!
…and knocked it down and were bored again in .01287598 seconds!
So what’s next on the list…
…oh just feed them again.
You know this just a sampling of the amount of sugar that will be consumed that week with Grandma & Grandpa at the helm…
(Notice the fresh and healthy slices of cantaloupe on the tray going to waste back there – can’t say we don’t try!)
It WAS a wonderful weekend and we loved spending the time with Grandpa and Dada.
(Hubby’s Father, Hubby & myBuddy)
As of this morning, the sugar has worn off.
The iTwins are napping.
This is all that the huz left in the fridge before departing on another business trip…
Nah…actually he left me some goldfish crackers for the kids too.
No parties here this week people.
However, THIS is what he goes away and does…
(sent me this iPhone pic this morning)…a Camaro for a rental…are you kidding me….for real, must you rub it in…
..you’re driving around in THAT having a good ol’ business-trip kinda time…
…while I’m imprisoned home with this?
The toddler melt-down machine.
The SAHM is overrated (sometimes I think).
Sometimes I think it might even be a scam when I receive photos like above from the go-to-work half of us.
I might need to remind him while he’s away joy-riding that he does have a wife and children at home!
For real:
He is a very wonderful man and I love him with all of my heart (even though his socks need GPS to the laundry basket) — he is also an amazing father who will be missed this week 
Hurry home Dada. But sorry no, you’re not getting a Camaro when you return.
Did you see what we got made him for Father’s Day? Here is the post in case you missed it.

Gotta love the Mega Blocks! Best of luck for the week ahead with no Hubby! I’ve only had to do that one time and it’s not something I want to repeat!
Cute post and cute pics!
Looks like/sounds like a great time was had by all!
I completely agree about the Mega Blocks…they are a playtime staple around here!
ahhh yes the toddler melt down machine. We have a crying chair here. It works pretty well. Totally off topic where are you getting those hair accessories for your baby?
Wow! Looks like a fun trip! I admire that you packed up the crew for only 1 night. When I take the girls to Va. Beach (4 hour trip) I usually try to stay at least 2 nights just to recover! LOL
LOVE the iPhone pics! And I am soooo jealous because I want one! Hmmm, maybe I can talk hubby into one for Xmas????
Btw, thanks for your awesome comments about my pic with “dancing queen.” You sure know how to make a mama feel good about herself
THANKS!
