Sunday Funday!

Today was not a sleep in day, for some reason I was woke up at 7:20AM and couldn't get back to sleep!! So I eventually got up and gave the kids cereal for breakfast! Then I started packing our lunched because we were going to the zoo!! The kids all got dressed while I did this and then one I was all packed I changed real quick and we headed out! We first got a car wash because my van was sooooooooooooo dirty. Then we got water at Sheetz and then I made sure all my tires were inflated correctly! Then it was off to Pittsburgh!! The weather was cool, but the sun was shining and it was beautiful!! 

The zoo was hardly busy and we had such a great time!! We saw the baby tiger. The mommy and baby rhino. Both lions were sunning themselves and all but one elephant was out in the yard. We even watched the 2 little baby ones "trunk wrestle"!!! The big giraffe was real close to the fence and was watching all the people so that was neat! Then we had out packed lunch and then headed out to see the rest of the animals! We saw all the fish in the aquarium and the penguins too, but not the polar bears, they were working on their tanks so they weren't out! We watched the sea otter play, he was tapping the glass with a rock and was swimming and turning flips/circles, it was so funny! I even got a little video of it!!! Then we went through the kid's kingdom and when we went in the snake building mommy crawled though the tunnels of the meerkats exhibit and got some really great shots of them!! CJ and I even got to take a selfie with one of them!! Hahaha!!! Then it was time to head to the van and head home! Everyone was hungry so we stopped at Target and got some Pringles and then got back on the road! We got home about 4:30PM. I made chicken soup and toasted cheese for dinner and then the boys went outside to play! I messed around in my office a bit and finally daddy got home at 7PM!!! We were all excited!!! Then it was showers and then bed at 8PM!! I went soon after because my whole body ached and I was exhausted!

So yada yada yada,

regular Thursday morning! Once I got C dropped off at school I hit Michael's, JoAnn's, Aldi's and Wal Mart to gather my supplies for making Gman's birthday cake and my veggie pizzas I was making for Saturday! Then I got back to C's school at about 10:45AM and snuck up to watch him!! After I picked him up we ran through the carwash, it was such a long line and a long wait! 

Then it was off to McDonald's for out weekly lunch date!! Once we got home I got to work on baking the chocolate chip  muffins for Gman's birthday snack the next day at school! Then once they were cooling I figured out a cool way to put a "hulk" cupcake wrapper on them, so I cut all them out and glued them up and then put them on the muffins!!

He loved them and thought they were the coolest things ever!! Once the kids came home, they brought their report cards (we except Little man, he forgot his) and the kids did do well!! S had all A's and one B. R had all A's. (Little man had all A's too) and Gman had almost all P's with just 2 or 3 M's!! So proud of all my kiddos!!
