Even busier!

What a busy day!!!! I slept terrible because T is in Chicago and it was bright ans early that my alarm went off!! I make the girl's lunches and then started making 25 salad plate sized pancakes for Gman's Bunny Breakfast that day at school!! I could only make three at a time on the griddle and they were taking forever to cook through that it took me an hour and 30 minutes to make 25 of them! Also through that time I fed the boys waffles and packed their lunches and got them ready! We had to have the pancakes to school by 8:15AM so we had to be ready early and leave early! We got them there in time but as we were leaving school Gman was flopping his head and broke his hat!!! Argh!!! So we hurried home and I tried to fix it, but it wasn't working so I told him he'd just have to be careful well once we got outside I had an idea so I waved the bus on and went in the house and got my scissors, ribbon and tiny attacher. I sat in the van and McGyvered the hat!! Then I headed to school to drop them off!!! Then CJ and I ran to get some groceries to carry us through my mom's visit! We got home at about 10:30AM and mom, Grant and Gavin showed up like 10 minutes later! Ugh, it was a long and awkward day!!! I spent it cleaning up the mess I made in the kitchen and working on laundry! The boys played and had fun. Then all the other kids started coming home! R had try outs for the talent show after school so I had to pick her up at 4PM. Once I got back home we left to go out to eat. Mom treated us to Eat N Park and then we ran to Wal Mart to buy Grant & Gavin 2DS's and some games. Then it was home and we put the kids to bed at about 8PM, it was chaos! They were out of control! Then us girls stayed up till about 11PM, because S was making cupcakes for school the next day. I gave mom the choice to sleep in my bed or S's and she choose S's. S throw a fit because she had to sleep in my bed with me! Ugh! It was a long and fitful nights sleep!!

Super busy!

Well daddy was up and out the door before any of us were even awake so I was flying solo this morning! But thankfully I had pre-packed most of the lunches the night before so I was back in bed before I knew it. The girl's just ate cereal for breakfast! Then the alarm went off at 7:30AM and I gave the boys cereal for breakfast too. They got dressed and then I finished packing up their lunches and back packs! It was so cold this morning and raining and it was terrible! Once the boys were on the bus I headed into town to drop CJ off!! Then it was off for some Easter shopping. I hit the Dollar Tree and got a bunch of stuff, TJ Maxx for an outfit for R and then JoAnn's for some scrap goodies! Then it was off to Wal Mart to get a dress for S and some food for lunches for the rest of the week! Once out of there I ran through Taco Bell's drive thru for "breakfast" and then to CJ's school to spy a bit. I was happy to do this because the kids got to see a real live bunny!! Then CJ and I headed home for lunch! I worked on Gman's hat (It's finished!!) and then everyone came home. Gman was crying and fussy because his right ear is hurting - I think he might have an ear infection - I don't have time for this crap - so I dosed him with advil and am hoping for the best!! Then at 5PM we headed out the door to eat dinner at Mickey's! Then once we were done it was off to EP for the 3rd grade party planning meeting. Which was a bust - there was only 4 people that showed up besides Jenn and I!! Two of them were Chrissy and Laura! Ugh!!! We were done at 7:30PM and it was rush, rush, rush through showers and teeth brushing the next 30 minutes! I got 4 of the kids in bed at 8PM and S went at 9PM. Then I added a few more things to Gman's hat and listened to a bunch of Youtube videos! Now it's 11PM and I'm off to bed!!
