A List of My WHOLE Day
I was awoken by Jake this morning at 6:30! Yay, he slept all night. That is a rarity these days. We came downstairs I turned on Curious George for him, his favorite show and sat with him on the couch for about 5 minutes. Then James was up. I got both the boys cups of milk. Changed Jake's diaper. They watched George as I made coffee and made Brianna's lunch. 7:35 off to take Brianna to school. On my way home from dropping her off I stop at the store to pick up some milk so James can have cereal for breakfast before he goes to school because we just ran out. Go home. It's 8:15. Get James some cereal that he doesn't even eat, so going to the store was now pointless and could have waited till later! Get him ready for school all the meanwhile trying to get a card order placed that wasn't going through and it took me 3 times to do it on the computer, so I had to keep checking my computer to see if it went through. 8:50 James is off to school with Craig, who this morning was able to drop James off on his way to work! Yay me, saves me a trip! I sit down with my second cup of coffee, have breakfast and check my email. Make a couple phone calls to deal with stuff. Throw a load of laundry in and take a shower. Get Jake ready and we were off to the mall to exchange some birthday gifts, get James new shoes, and some new shorts. After the mall we ran over to Target where we got some Starbucks, a scone for us to split, milk for Jake and ice tea for me. Really quickly got some things we needed, hair clippers so I can cut Jake's hair, toothpaste, new bath towels, and some new pajama pants for me. My flannels are getting too hot and my other ones are getting too old. Just finished in time to get over to James' school to pick him up. 1:00. Jake fell asleep in the car. Put him in his bed for a nap. Get James comfy on the couch with a cup of milk and let him veg for a bit since he needs time to rest but doesn't take a nap anymore. Put another load of laundry in and run the dish washer. Sit in front of the computer trying to figure out if we are going to switch cell phone carriers. And have some lunch. Browse around on the computer a bit more. Jake wakes up, not a very long nap. I get him and give the kids a snack. Fold some laundry and add another load. 3:ooish Craig comes home and wants to cut Jake's hair with the clippers. Well that turns into me doing it and then giving Jake a bath. I thought it would be easier and faster to cut Jake's hair with clippers rather than scissors. It was but it still was difficult. And his hair came out much shorter than we thought! Back to folding laundry. Ran to the bank. Folding laundry again. 5:30 went out to sushi for dinner. We haven't had it in so long and we needed a quick meal tonight. I know it is St Patrick's Day but we had corn-beef and cabbage yesterday. We then went to pick up Brianna at Servite from her track meet that she doesn't want anyone to watch! On the way home we stopped for more sushi for her and frozen yogurt. Got home, Craig got boys ready for bed while I put away more laundry. Boys in bed 8:30. Put my new jammies on. I ran up and down stairs 3 times until I figured out what Jake wanted to take to bed with him. Writing this post and going to go have a glass of wine and watch TV. Hopefully I will be in bed by 10:30. Good-night!
