With all the excitement, you might think that’s all that happened over the weekend. However, you’d be wrong. So much to blog, so little time, so get ready to let your envy flow, dear reader — did I mention that Saturday was Spa Day? Yes, Spa Day, complete with facials, manicures, pedicures lip gloss and tattoos. Because nothing says “spa relaxation” like a smiley face or ladybug (temporary) tattoo.

But wait … there’s more.

We also …

– made pizza (not Tombstone)
– made cookies (not only chocolate chip cookies from scratch, but white and dark chocolate swirl chocolate chip cookies)
– vacuumed (a rare ritual)
– discussed how to make felt clothes for the sock monkey
– made bath salts and soaps (never too early to plan for Christmas)
– tackled giant stacks of mail (dear trees, i am really sorry)
– defeated the Meta-Knight and got the next-to-last piece of the mirror in Kirby and the Amazing Mirror (trust me, this is HUGE)
– caught up on the filing (blah, but hallelujah i’m now organized for the next day or two)
– washed the sheets and made the beds (including the vast reorganization of the stuffed animal collection into regions and sections by animal size and type)
– bought a new camera (when you’re holding your batteries in with tape, it’s time)

And much, much more.

Oh sure, there’s a lot I didn’t get done, but all that stuff will still be waiting tomorrow. For now I think it’s enough that I am now officially the coolest mom ever. Trust me, I am … at least around these parts.
