my to do list

1. go grocery shopping. - check!
and i even stayed under budget too! thanks most in part to aldi, my favorite grocery store to get great deals. i got a bad og tortilla chips for 99 cents! can't beat that.

2. go grocery shopping for the super bowl party. - check!
and don't worry, it's not this huge blowout of a party. we are just having some friends come over, and they all have babies. so past some young ones bedtimes, we won't be very loud if arizona gets a touchdown. at least we have enough chips to go around! :) i am also rooting for the cardinals, if anyone wants to know. my reasons are a: the live the closet to my home state of california and b: i have been to their stadium before. pretty sports savvy reasoning if you ask me!

3. get stuff for james party.
this is not checked because i am not going until next week to get all his stuff. i am so excited that he is turning one! he's such a big boy now, and he becomes greater every day. the theme of the party will be balls seeing as that's his favorite thing to play with. (like basketballs, baseballs, tennis balls, etc. get your mind out of the gutter! :)) so i am going to make a basket ball cake and we are going to have meatballs and grapes to eat, among other things. the rest of the party though, i can't mention because it's pretty great. but i'm not going to build it up or anything because i don't want it to be a huge letdown for the people that do come in case our plans aren't that great. but i am excited nonetheless.

4. have a three day weekend. -check!
well, it's this coming week but since it is the end of the semester for my girls, we are getting friday off. who's excited???

that's about it i think...i do have cleaning and such to do to prepare for the party, but i can do that sporatically throughout the week. i think.

whatcha doing this week?
