Morning 2 of flying solo,

but again I made and easy lunch and breakfast for the kids! Little man stayed home again today because his fever is still up in the 100's but that didn't last long. Then on a whim I took Gman and CJ's, both of their's was in the 100's too. I think Gman's was even 101, but I just dosed them with Motrin and sent Gman off to school! 
Thinking CJ may have a chipped front tooth!!

Then CJ, Little man and I hopped in the van and headed off to CJ's farm field trip! We got lost and were almost late but I finally figured it out and we got there! It was so hot and so humid and so stinky!!! CJ loved it but I was miserable! Poor Little man stayed in the van the entire time (almost 2 hours). The highlight was that CJ got to see piggies and be the first one to ride a HUGE horse - he actually volunteered first - I was surprised!!! Then we came home and hung out for a bit. Then ran out and got the boys ice cream for Mickey's and a coolatta for me then to Giant Eagle to get my medicine! Then back home and I tried to work on laundry! The kids started coming home and I made pizza for dinner and then grabbed a shower. Then it was time for R and I to her band concert! I had S watch the boys so that I could go by myself. R and I got home about 9PM. Now I just baked a double batch (store bought pouches) of banana muffins for lunches tomorrow and now I'm headed to my bed to read and then fall asleep!!

Solo today

Woke up and did the morning routine solo today, thankfully I had easy lunches planned and easy breakfasts!! Little man is still running a temp so he's staying home from school today and I'm gonna run him to the doctors as soon as I get Gman on the bus. Speaking of Gman he is so excited, he has a field trip today to Vale Wood Farm - it's a dairy farm. He had so much fun and even got to touch a cow's "gutter" (utter), he described it as feeling squishy and rubbery!! We made it to the doctor's office just before the walk in clinic opened and they were already slammed! Ugh!!! But we didn't have to wait too long. They took a swab of Little man's throat but the strep test came back negative - after talking with him she thinks he might have mono - WTH!!! So if he runs a fever through Wednesday we have to go get blood work!! We came home and chilled the rest of the day! Once S came home I headed up to the track to walk, it was miserable - so hot and humid!!! Then it was home to make spaghetti for dinner. Grab a quick shower and then Gman, CJ and I headed out to S's concert! R stayed home with Little man. We were there till 9:30PM - it was soooooooooo long!! CJ finally fell asleep at about 9PM. The boys were really good though. We came home and I put the 2 boys to bed and then I headed to my room to read for a bit and then fell asleep myself!!!
