what a great weekend we had! spent time with people we love and that we haven't had a chance to see much recently. my NICE was pretty simple these past couple of days because i was only really around a handful of people.
friday 27- i not only woke up early to get the kids off to their 1/2 day of school, but got myself ready so that i wouldn't have to wake big kev up until AFTER i got all our running around done. oil change, fill up the tank, pick up a few last minute items and pick the kids up from school. i did all of this and then came home, kevin got to just slide into the car and relax on the ride out to chicago. i know i'm NICE to him. he's a nice man! aslo, to be nice to him (and sorta me) i got him 2 pairs of new jeans, that he desperately needed and a cute ass black and white raglan baseball shirt. so, the shirt was a little treat to myself also...i LOVE big guys in these yummy shirts. kevin is not as big of a fan as i am and would Never buy one. but $6 and he's got a new shirt that i can pine over him in and hey i count that as a win-win. he did wear it on sunday. oh so cute!
not counting this one, but on a side note- i did give an "i love you" card to the guy at berkstrom that changed my oil. he laughed and said thanks and put it in his pocket. hehe!
saturday 28- so, saturday i wasn't Overly nice to anyone but i did help out with Mav and gave lana/ryan a chance not to have to get him up from nap, change his diaper and/or feed him. this was a treat for me too. i have to say i'm fining out the more NICE i do the more i think it's nice for me too. try it- you'll like it! anyhow, i do want to point out something i found super cute and proof that i do rub some of my NICE onto my kiddos. we took them to ed debevic's (if you haven't been, you should! it's fun and some GREAT diner food!) anyhow, for those that don't know its a diner with some RUDE service. it's so fun, the staff talk rude and act crazy sassy to you. my poor sweet hgg was so uncomfortable in the situation! she's way too nice for it! she after a little bit was "okay" with it but didn't care to participate much. and then there was this old lady. old, gray, standard slow walkin' old lady that was coming back from the bathroom when the waitress came up behind her and bark something like- "come on grandma, i don't have all day, move it or loose it!" loud, we could all hear and the crowd along with everyone at our table (minus hailey) laughed. hgg leans in and says in a sad voice that she can't believe that lady would say that to her. "she really is old mom! and she was just trying to get back to her seat from the bathroom". he sweet little Niceness couldn't allow her to see the humor in this. i had to explain that the old gal knows what sort of place this is and that they are just kidding. regardless, hgg was not thrilled with it. she loved the food but she's too NICE for even the fake rude. :)
sunday march 1- didn't do much NICE i'll be honest. we left lana/ryan's drove the kids down michigan ave a bit. (i guess that's nice!) and then we went to the hard rock cafe for lunch, then drove home. it was late by the time we got home and i didn't see anyone after that. 2am (which is actually today the 2nd) little kev was up puking! i had to pull out the carpet cleaner for one area and i helped him out even though all i cared to do was sleep.) that's not NICE though, that's bigger than that, that's MOM.
