It's puppy day!!! Yay!!!

I was up earlyish this morning, but laid in bed for a while!! Couldn't lay around too long because it was PUPPY DAY!!! So once I got up at about 8AM I grabbed a shower and then dressed! Then we hung around because daddy wasn't calling the seller until like 10AM. So we left shortly before 10AM and went to WalMart to get the puppy a blanket and I got some treats too! Then we headed to Petco to pick up the carrier, a doggie poop thing and some other training treat things. By this time it was 11AM and Gman was complaining for a snack so I just decided to take them to Mickey's for an early lunch. Just as we sat down to eat daddy texted the address and the time we needed to pick the dog up by!!! Woo Hoo!! So we ate and then hit Wal Mart again real quick for water, a collar and a leash and then we were on the road!! We got their shortly after 1PM. 

We were there for probably 30 minutes and then we headed to Altoona and Daddy's store to show him the puppy!!! She was so cute and kind of afraid in the van, she actually jumped up and sat on S's lap! We were at the store for a bit and then we headed home! She rode on the seat between S and CJ the whole way home! Once back in town I got us ice cream and then we went home! The kids were so excited and just wanted to play and play with her!! She wandered around a bit exploring, had a pee accident and then plopped down beside my chair and fell asleep!! Once she was up I took her outside and she peed!! And then the kids played with her for a bit!! Brought her back in and she pooped on the floor!! Ugh!!! Back outside for a bit she went! She played with the boys for a bit and ate some and drank some and then slept a bit more and then she peed on the floor again! This time at least it was the kitchen floor and not the rug!! I put the boys to bed and 9:30PM. The pup is sleeping in the kitchen right in front of the office door and the girls are down stairs watching TV. I'm writing this and waiting for T to come home!! Hope tonight the pup goes easy on us!!!

Weird Weather

So we were suppose to have some terrible weather today so the kids and I were in the pool shortly after 10AM, it was so nice floating for about 2 hours! We got out at about 12:15PM for lunch then after lunch we got in for just a little bit more and then got out to get ready to go to the library! We left a little early because I had to stop at Tanja's to drop off some PTA paper work and then we were at the library almost 2 hours! I worked on my school calendar while the kids did all their usual library stuff. Then we headed to Mickey's and got some ice cream and then came home! 

The kids played outside and I finally started dinner at about 6PM. We had scrambled eggs, sausage and toast!! Tanja stopped over at about 6:30PM for me to sign a check. By about 7PM, I was spent!! Hot, sweaty, grumpy and done with the kids!!! T was late coming home so I had to deal with bedtime myself - he didn't get home till almost 9:30PM.

Friday, Friday!

This morning I woke earlyish for some reason- before 9AM. T is in Ohio so it's just me and the kids! Little man tried to make pancakes for the boys this morning - it's nice that he wanted to feed them but man did he make a HUGE mess!! Ugh!! We just kind of hung out till lunch and then after everyone ate we got in the pool! I floated for 2.5 hours and it was fabulous!! The sun was so hot and the water so cool!! The kids played in and out of the pool the whole time! Then after we got out we hung out in the house - watching TV and reading! After dinner the kitchen got cleaned and then we needed to run to Wal Mart to get milk and a few other things. Then I took the kids through Mickey's drive through and we got ice cream! Then it was home to hang some more till bed at 9PM. I laid in bed till almost midnight reading and then it was lights out for me!!

What a beautiful summer day!!!

I woke up early for some reason just lazed in bed for like forever! I got up and got the boys poptarts and OJ and then went back to bed! Then once I was up "for the day" I ran to Wal Mart and got milk and mac and cheese and a few other things. I got home around 10Am and sent the kids outside! I went out too and laid in my chair while they played! Then I made lunch and after that we went back outside and played till it was time to come in for dinner at 5PM. The kids swam and rode their bikes and played on the swing set! We cleaned out the sand box so I could get new sand. I laid in my chair almost the whole time and relaxed! I did lay out in the sun just a bit but it was so hot and I do not like the hot!!! Hahaha!! After dinner I gave Gman and CJ a shower and then I took a shower myself and then we ran to Wal Mart to get sand and a new pool float for me! Then to Mickey's for ice cream cones and then we came home. The kids watched TV for about an hour and I worked on editing photos and then it was 9PM and time for bed!!

Gman's finger day 2!! Gnarly!!

Hooray the last day of school!!!

I didn't get up at 6AM because I didn't have any lunches to pack - it's a half day of school!! I did getup at 7:30AM to get the boys ready and daddy was making 3 different breakfasts - hahahahaha!! Once we got the boys on the bus I cleaned up the kitchen a bit and then CJ and I just hung out! R came home a little after 11AM and then Gman and Little man came home at about 12:15PM and we left for lunch. S wasn't with us because she walked up town. We ate at McDonald's and then headed to the library! 

We got there just a little after 1PM and didn't leave until after 3PM!! We all got books. S finally got a library card. Then we headed back to Mickey's and got ice cream cones. Then we headed home. We just hung out, me reading outside, the boys riding their bikes on the road! Finally at about 5PM S started pizza for dinner! After we ate - daddy came home just a little after 7PM and brought the kids popsicles! Then we played outside for about an hour more and then came in and watched The Lego Movie - we put everyone to bed at about 9:30PM. Then I headed to bed too because I was beat!!

Busy day in store today!

I was up and at them at 6AM to get the girl's lunches packed and then headed back to bed! Got up again when my alarm went off at 7:30AM. Finished getting the boys lunches packed and T got them on the bus! Then I cut up watermelon and then planted 2 of the planters for the Spring Sing today but I needed more flowers. I text Laura to see if I could barrow her wheeled cooler and she dropped it off for me. Then I showered and CJ and I headed out the door. Our first stop was the dollar tree to get some utensils. Then Wal Mart for flowers, ice, cups and water. Then we picked up T and we went for lunch at the Thai place! Then CJ and I rushed home to load the van with the stuff I needed for the sing and headed to EP! We were the only ones there and started getting stuff ready! Finally one of the other moms showed up and then Sarah showed up and we were rocking and rolling! We got it all set up and Jenn finally shows up. Then at about 1:50PM we let the parents start coming in. The sing started at 2PM and we had front row seats right in front of Gman! He did a fabulous job!! Once it was over we had snacks and then when ever one was gone I cleaned up! We finally left the school at 3:30PM. I came home and dropped CJ off and then returned Laura's cooler. Once everyone was home from school I told them that if they did a few jobs that I would take them to Mickey's for dinner! They did them (half assed) and so we went! 

Then we hit the mall so the girl's could buy a book (but they didn't) and then we hit Wal Mart to see if they had it (they didn't), but I picked up my photos. Then we stopped at Get Go so S could buy an Amazon gift card and then I took them to Mickey's drive through for ice cream cones and a hot fudge sundae for me! Then it was home where they watched TV and T came home a little after 8PM. He ate his taco bell and then put the boys to bed for me! Now I'm gonna go hit the hay because I am beat and I can't wait to sleep in tomorrow!!

Ugh it was kind of a weird day!!

I was kind of in a funk and a little bit of a bad mood! I got up and dealt with CJ - he is still sick and still running a fever of up to 104 without medicine in his system! I needed to make a menu and grocery shopping! I took CJ with me and that was a bad idea - he was whiny and it caused his fever to spike. While we were gone T and the kids cleaned up outside and they cleaned out my garage! Then T and S put the groceries away and went back outside. I spent almost the whole day working on my project life, I got week 19 finished! T went out and got us Domino's Pizza for dinner and it was pretty good. Then he went back outside and finished mowing. Once he was done we went to McDonald's and the kids got milk shakes while I got a hot fudge sundae. 

Then it was home and everyone (but CJ) got a shower and then it was bed time! I spent the evening watching CSI: NY while T worked on his laundry. It was almost 1AM when Tim and I went to bed!

Another great day to sleep in

even though it wasn't as late as yesterday! 

We got up a little after 10AM and grabbed some breakfast. Then I made a menu and grocery list and left the house at about 11AM to go grocery shopping! I was gone till a little after 1PM. Once home we headed out side - daddy to mow and me and the boys to weed my flower bed and garden! Gman was such a great little helper - he helped me the most! I got the flower bed weeded and marigolds planted there. Then I got the garden weeded and CJ planted his sunflowers out there! I think I'll get some more flowers in there! Then after hanging out for a bit I talked T into going into Wal Mart and buying him self a new grill. We all went and I got the kids ice cream from McDonald's and T got a pre-assembled grill and his propane tank filled up! 

Then we came home and the kids played outside while T grilled our chicken and I made baked potatoes in the microwave! After dinner the kids went back outside and I headed to the track to walk but my back was so sore and I only made it for 20 minutes and then came back home! We got the kids showered and then T put them to bed and I laid in my room and watched the movie Speed. I just came out here to make granola bars for lunches this week but I'm out of tin foil so I made some cinnamon swirl quick bread instead! Now I'm writing this and then I'm gonna hit the hay and maybe read for just a bit!

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!!

Sunday funday

Let's see, today was such a great day to sleep in! Once daddy and I decided to roll out of bed at about 9AM, we headed out the door for a little breakfast date - we had the new breakfast at Taco Bell! It was delicious!! Then we ran to Bilo and picked up pork loins for dinner! We kind of just hung around the house, putzing around till lunch and then we took the kids to Mickey's. The we headed to Wal Mart because daddy need a few things for his up coming trip this week and then we went back through the drive through of Mickey's and got the kids .49 cent ice cream cones! Once home we CLEANED!!! We deep cleaned the boys room, the kitchen and the mudroom. I swept and mopped all the hardwood floors and S steam mopped the kitchen floor. Daddy cleaned the laundry room and I dusted the living room. Then it was dinner. Playing outside for a few minutes with the kids and then daddy was on bath duty while I ran back to Wal Mart to get him deodorant and advil. Then I stopped at the track and walked for about 25 minutes! Now I'm home and I'm gonna finish my water and then go read!

Sunday!

Another day we got to sleep in a bit, till after 8AM. T gave the kids left over donuts for breakfast and they loved it!! Hahaha!! Once we were up I worked on getting some leftover laundry put away and helped daddy clean up our room a bit! Then I sat down and made a menu and a grocery list! Daddy and I spent some time in the bedroom watching CSI again and then he made up grilled chicken, twice baked potatoes and fresh green beans for lunch!! We left the house at about 2PM to go grocery shopping and took Gman and C with us. We hit Aldi's and Wal Mart. Then we got the boys some ice cream as a snack before heading home! 

I put the groceries away and by this time is was getting close to dinner but we did not get the turkey in the oven because it wasn't defrosted yet so I just gave the kids cereal for dinner, they were in heaven!!! Hahaha!! Then it was back into the bed room where daddy and I watched more CSI: NY till like Midnight!!
