Saturday

It was so nice to wake up to T having a day off!!! We hung out this morning - T working on some of his laundry. I eventually jumped in the shower and so did T and then we left at noon to go on a lunch date. We went to Tres Amigos (Mexican place) and had some yummy food!! 

Then we hit Giant Eagle to get food for dinner. Once home we hung out and did lots of nothing - the weather was really crappy - cloudy and not warm at all!! Finally at about 3PM we decided to take the 3 boys for hair cuts! Then it was on to Wal Mart to get some laundry detergent for T and then he dropped me off at Michael's and I picked up some thin washi tape! Once we were home T started cooking dinner, the kids got in the pool and I worked on some scrapping. We ate and then I went back to scrapping and the kids went back to playing. Once the boys were in bed (like at 9:30PM) I got in bed and read and ate some ice cream and then it was off to dream land for me while T laid in bed and watched TV!

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!!

Morning routine

- all by myself, it went fairly smoothly! 

Today is CJ's last day of preschool - it's just an outdoor play day! So I dropped him off and then headed back home to put the finishing touches on Gman's snack - dirt pudding flower pots! Then I had to drop those off at the school at 10AM. 

I met Laura in the parking lot and after I headed the snack off to Mrs. Coleman (the kids loved them) Laura and I chatted with Mrs. Bradley for a while and then were finally allowed to head down to A7 to get some stuff we would need for the 3rd grade party tomorrow! We left the school at 11AM so I had to rush home to throw together a lunch for CJ and then rush back into town to his school to be there for photos on the front step at 11:15AM! Once that was done we headed to the Thai restaurant to have lunch for Shari's birthday with Shari, Laura and Cari. Then we came home and chilled for a bit - I worked on laundry - until the kids started coming home. Once the girl's got home we did a mad dash of cleaning for an hour since Jenna was getting off the bus with Little man and we were watching her till 5:45PM for Laura! Once they were home we had snacks and then the kids played downstairs almost the whole time!! The girl's were trying to get ready - they even ironed their clothes and I made pizza for dinner! We started eating and then all piled in the van and left at 5:30PM. I dropped the girl's off at the Jr High, gave Jenna to Laura and then the boys and I headed to Dollar General to get some snacks to eat during the concert! We headed back to the school and hung out in the vestibule till the doors opened and then we sat through the concert (4th & 5th grade band/chorus) just to see S and R sing one song! UGH!! It was almost 9:30PM when we got home! The boys went straight to bed. R finished up some dishes and then her and S showered real quick and went to bed! I baked 2 dozen muffins. Then hit the hay after midnight!

Another busy day on tap for me!

We had our normal routine and got all the kids off to school and I got CJ dropped off at preschool! Then I headed to the dollar tree and picked up some stuff for the games for the 3rd grade party! Then I headed to Wal Mart and picked up a few more things that I couldn't finds at the Dollar Tree! Then I rushed to Eat N Park because we were meeting for breakfast for Krista's birthday! One of the girls was late so we were late starting and it kind of sucked. But I was a good girl and ordered whole grain pancakes and turkey sausage - even though they were both really dry! Then I headed and picked up CJ and we came home and had lunch. I worked on a bit of laundry! S texted me to ask if I'd pick her up because she had to bring her mellophone home and I said yes so CJ and I headed to the high school at 2:45PM. Well she couldn't get her horn so it was a wasted trip! Boo! Then once we were back home and everyone was done with school, S made us homemade pizza for dinner! Then it was time for R and I to head to her chorus concert! Of course Gman throw a fit and wanted to come with us and since T was at a meeting and was going to be late I just took him with me so S wouldn't have to deal with him! They sang so good but the highlight of the night was that R played her flute alongside the music teacher in piano for one of the 8th grade vocal ensembles songs!! She did a FABULOUS job!! I was so proud of her!!! She was a shining little star!!!

Gman was good, but it was after 9PM when we were done and we were all tired and a little grumpy! Plus R and I have an early rise time tomorrow!! Boo!!

Is it Friday yet??

Ugh I did not want to get up when my alarm went off this morning - I especially didn't want to make scrambled eggs for the kids lunches! Thank goodness I had some hard boiled eggs in the fridge I just subbed them! I went back to bed and tried to fall back to sleep but it didn't work to well!! So up I got again when my 2nd alarm went off!! Once we got the bigger boys on the bus I took CJ into town to school and then came back home and walked on the treadmill for 45 minutes! Then I photographed my week 16 PL pages and then messed around on youtube for a bit. On the way back into town to pick up CJ, I saw S and her Spanish club walking along Philadelphia street headed to Cozumel's for their lunch "field trip", I was gonna honk but I didn't want to embarrass her!! Once I got CJ picked up we headed to daddy's Indiana store and picked him up for lunch! We went to Mickey's and while we were waiting in line to order the electricity blinked off and on! So we finally got our food and sat and ate. Then we took Daddy back to work and then headed to Wal Mart so I could pick up some yogurt, bananas and lemon bars - the lemon bars are GROSS!! Then once back home I worked on the boys laundry and then catching up on posting my PL pages, my project love me photos and this blog! I made taco's for dinner and then at 7PM Little man and I ran into EP for a band meeting, we were there for an hour and then I dropped him off home and I ran back into town to drop off some stuff for Tim at his Indiana store and then I headed to Mickey's for an ice cream cone!

Can you say, "BUSY"!

Quite the busy Wednesday here! I was up at like 5:30AM and couldn't go back to sleep - ugh - and of course I couldn't get up and eat or drink anything because I was fasting! Boo!!! So I laid around and then got up at 6AM and got the girl's lunches pack then it was back to bed for me till 7:30AM. Then we got up with the boys and did all their stuff and then T waited with the bigger boys for the bus and CJ and I got in the van to head to the doctors! Krista texted me earlier and asked us to the library so once we were done at the lab we headed back to town, and it was just in time - we waited forever to get checked in! CJ was so bored he was using the chairs as a tunnel!!

I made a pit stop at Sheetz to get me a drink (I took my breakfast with me) and a snack for CJ and then we hit the library! CJ had fun playing with Chase and the enjoyed the stories too!! Then Krista asked us to lunch at Mickeys so we all met at the Regency Mall one. Krista and I had a good talk and CJ and Chase played some more. We were finally done and on our way home at 12:45PM! Phew, busy morning! Then I had to exercise!  So I went done stairs and walked for almost and hour and then I needed a snack! I worked on CJ's laundry and then worked on some stuff for the up coming 3rd grade party! Then it was homemade pizza for dinner (for the kids - I just had a sandwich, pretzels, hummus and strawberries). After dinner I worked on Little man's shirt for Jump Rope For Heart and then T came home at about 7:15PM!  Just as he walked in the door Gman started yelling about something coming out of his p.e.n.i.s., so T took him in the bathroom and some kind of mucus/pus was coming out. So he scooped it up and I put it in a baggie and I guess we'll be heading to the doctors tomorrow!! *sigh* It was late then so it was rush rush rush through showers and put the kids to bed and now I'm sitting here writing this. Just finished my ice cream sandwich and I think I'm gonna hit the hay!!!

The new normal.

normal routine this morning but once we were done with the girls daddy stayed up because he had paper work to do! I headed back to bed and when my alarm went off at 7:30AM daddy was heading out the door for work! But he made the boys breakfast and finished packing their lunches for me! After I got Little man and Gman on the bus, CJ and I headed out the door to drop him off at school! Then I came back home and walked on the treadmill for 59 minutes and burned 400 calories!! Woo Hoo. Then it was shower time and then heading back into town to pick him up! We then headed to Wal Mart to pick up some "diet" food for me and then I got him chicken nuggets from Mickey's! I just got a fruit/yogurt parfait since we are going out later this afternoon for lunch at the Thai place! Laura invited us to help celebrate Kristi's belated birthday! So CJ and I made a quick stop at Aldi's and then we headed home to put our cold stuff away! Then it was back out to town for lunch! I had my pineapple fried rice with chicken and it was DELICIOUS!!! Laura, Kristi, Shari, Cindy and another lady I didn't know were there. CJ was so good, the lady cook made him a balloon animal (a poodle) and he played with that most of the time and then the man waiter gave him a piece of candy! It was 2:45PM by the time we were done and we rushed home to let the girl's in, but thankfully S remembered her key! Then it was spaghetti and meatballs for dinner for the kids and a sliced chicken sandwich for me. Then I started watching a movie till I had to leave the house at 6:45PM to take S to Madrigals practice - it was only and hour so I stayed in town and ran to Michael's to get a shirt for Little man and then to Wal Mart to get a few things I forgot earlier today! Now I just ate an ice cream sandwich and now I'm off to bed! Going in the morning to get blood work!!

Luncheon

Awww, Saturday!!! The kids were so good when they got up and didn't really bother me, it was so nice to laze in bed! Daddy texted at about 8AM and said he would be home by 10AM and I literally just laid in bed till he came home reading! Then I got up and got a shower and got ready to go! I was going to a luncheon with my girl friends and the Rustic Lodge! Daddy stayed home with the kids and they cleaned the living room and kitchen. I made a pit stop at Rite Aid to pick up some mascara then off I went. I got there at about 11:45AM. Found my table and sat by Amy. We talked, ate lunch and then I bought some tickets for the basket drawings. We got a mimosa and sat and waited to see if we won. I won NOTHING! I got home a little after 2PM. I cleaned up my office a bit and then we just hung out the whole day! I did go and walk and about died it was so hot!! Hahaha!!

Of course I didn't fall back to sleep and then the alarm went off for the boys! I got all there stuff done, CJ dressed, boys on the bus, myself dressed and then CJ and I headed to the track to walk, it spit rain the whole time! Boo!!

But I pressed one and walked three laps and then we hurried home and I showered and we headed back out the door to the library for story time! We were there about and hour and then headed to Mickey's were we met Jenn, Chrissy and Braden. We ate and the boys played while we mom's planned the 3rd grade end of the year party. The boys actually got along really well even though a few times I think Braden got CJ way to wound up!! We were there till after 1PM. CJ and I then hit JoAnn's and then headed home! I worked on laundry while he watched TV. I made hot dogs and tater tots for dinner and then daddy got home at 7PM. He ate real quick and then gave CJ a bath and then it was bed at 8PM for the kids!

Thirsty Thursday

Woke up and plowed through our normal Thursday morning routine! Then once I got everyone off to school I ran CJ into town for school, he cried of course - even before we even went into school, just sitting in the van he was bawling! I pushed him up the stairs and left. Then I ran to Wal Mart and picked up some nail polish remover and some new nail polish. Then it was home to color my hair and shower real quick before I ran back into town to pick CJ up. T was working in town today till just 11:30AM so we picked him up and headed to Eat N Park for lunch! 

Then it was home to hang out for the rest of the day! T started feeling bad so he actually took a bit of a nap. I worked on my project life! Once T got up he fixed Turkey Kielbasa and Perogies for dinner! Then it was time to shower everyone and get them in bed!

Car getting fixed today!! Woohoo!!

So we woke up today and got the girl's lunches packed and T made them breakfast! Then it was back to bed till 7:30AM. Got the boys up and fed, got lunched packed, CJ bathed and then I got them on the bus. I ran CJ into town to school and then I came back home and followed T into town. We dropped his car off at Buggy's (remember it's been making a LOUD grinding sound and he has been driving my van). Then we hit McDonald's for some breakfast!!

Then I hit Michael's and then Wal Mart to pick up some photos and a few groceries! Then it was time to head to CJ's school to pick him up!!! We got home and I had just made his lunch when T texted - his car was done! So we loaded back into the van and went to get him and drop him off - it was a ball bearing (?) and it had snapped!! They fixed it for free since it was just replaced 4 months ago and was under warranty!! Hooray!! Then CJ and I came back home and he was being super whiny and sniffling and coughing so bad that I finally took his temp at about 3PM - 103.4!!! Ugh!! Here we go again!! So I dosed him up and we just laid around!! T was just working in town so he said he'd bring dinner home around 6PM - it was Pizza Hut! After dinner we cleaned up the living room a bit and we had the bigger kids clean up the basement a bit and then it was time for bed!! I soon crawled in my bed after that and watched TV (Bones) till about midnight!!!

Spring has sprung, maybe!!

Today was such a beautiful day - it was 61 degrees at like 2 in the afternoon!!!! We got all out stuff done in the morning that we usually do and I drove CJ into town for school! Then I came home and messed around on my phone (on  Pinterest) for like an hour and then jumped in the shower. After I was done getting ready I headed back into town to get CJ from school. We were meeting Chrissy & Amy at Mickey's for lunch but not until noon so we ran to Dollar Tree to kill some time and then headed to the Wayne Ave McDonald's, of course they were already there and eating so we probably should have just went right after school but oh well!! CJ was of course not social and it was kind of an awkward lunch!! Chrissy had invited us to see an Elmo show at KCAC but I decided against it because I knew that CJ didn't really like the kids and I didn't relish paying $50 bucks for him to just cower on me!! So I said no, but then as we were leaving she was like..."are you sure you don't want to see Elmo...." and CJ was like..."I wanna see Elmo..." UGH!!! So there went $44 bucks!!! Hopefully it won't be a bust!! Then we headed home, but when we were almost there I remembered we needed to run to Wal Mart for milk so back out we went!! Hahaha!! We also stopped at Petco for the first time since R mentioned to me that they had guinea pigs in there. 

CJ and I had a fabulous time looking at all the animals: fish, snakes, turtles, lizards, birds, ferrets, mice, rats, a few cats and of course guinea pigs!! We finally made it home at about 2PM. The kids came home and then the boys played outside till like 5:30PM, it was so warm and gorgeous!! However they were playing with the basketball in the drive way and Gman hit the window that CJ had already cracked and broke it more!! So I made them clean up and come in, it was time for dinner anyways!! I had potato soup on the menu but it was way to nice for that so I just switched it out for Wednesday's meal: Egg sandwiches - the kids did not mind one bit, they love egg sandwiches!! Then it was time to clean up and I sat in my room and folded some laundry. Daddy got home at about 7:30PM and he put the boys to bed for me again!! It was awesome!

Ugh, 6AM came early!

We got up and got all our usual stuff done and got the girls off to school. Then I headed back to bed and just laid there - I totally couldn't get back to sleep!! My 2nd alarm finally went off at 7:30AM and I was up and getting dressed since I had to leave the house by 8:25AM. I had to be at East Pike by 8:30AM to help paint faces. The boys came with my and I painted Gman's face first! Then from 8:30AM till 10AM I painted faces. I left to come home and then T left for work!! Soon after CJ and I headed out the door. We stopped at Dollar Tree, Michael's and Giant Eagle then it was off the Eat N Park for lunch! 

Once home I worked on my project life a bit and cleaned up my office. Then I made cupcakes (for Dutch's 43rd birthday) and at 4:30PM Laura and Alyssa came and picked up R - she was going to eat dinner with them, go to Battle of the Faculties and then spend the night!!! I put off dinner for the longest time 1. because I didn't want to make it and 2). because I didn't want to leave the house and spend money on it! I ended up making pizza bagels for Little man, S & me and PB&J for CJ and Gman! Then after dinner I went into my room and read. CJ came in and fell asleep at about 7:20PM. T got home from work at about 8PM - he was sick and in pain from a kidney stone. Little man and Gman were watching a movie and I put them to bed at about 8:30PM. Now I just peed and I'm headed to bed myself because I am beat!!!

Thunderstorms in February!

Ugh, didn't want to get up this morning, but didn't want another snow day either, so torn! We did our usual morning routine but T didn't come back to bed because he had to leave early. I got the 3 boys fed, dressed and out the door. After I dropped CJ off I headed to the UPS store, JoAnn's and then walmart. 
More wacky weather - thunderstorms!!

Got a frappe from Mickey's and then took my groceries home. Back to pick CJ up and we hit the car wash and then McDonalds. Once home he watched tv and I edited and printed photos. After the kids got home I helped Gman with his sight words and then heated up left over ravioli for dinner! Daddy got home about 6:45pm and brought Thai food! Got the two bigger boys showered and then Gman was being a brat so we sent him to bed at 7:30pm. Then the two other boys and Reese at 8pm. Now daddy and I are hanging out in the bedroom watching TWD! I'm gonna hit the hay soon because I am beat!!!

Birthday Lunch!!

Had a birthday lunch today at The Coney: Laura, Krista, Jenn, Amy, Kim and Chrissy were there. Kim gave me a card. Jenn gave me a card (with a $25 dollar Olive garden gift card in it) and Laura paid for mine and C's lunch!! We were there for about an hour and thirty minutes!!! It was a great time!! When I came home I baked 2 pans of brownies for the father/daughter banquet tomorrow and then Kim posted on Facebook for a volunteer to make a treat for the next day for school - so I volunteered! I had to pick Little man up from school at 3:15PM to take him to the orthodontist, we were in and out in no time and the doctor said he even though his teeth are still crowded he doesn't see Little man needing braced for a few more years!! Then Little man and I ran to Aldi's to get stuff to make rice crispy treat and strawberries and then we stopped at Michael's to get pink chocolate. Once home I made two pans of rice crispy treats and cleaned and cut 2 quarts of strawberries! 

Then I made tacos for dinner. I asked T to bring home a heart cookie cutter and then once the kids were in bed I cut the rice crispies into hearts and dipped them in pink chocolate!

So it must be Monday -

Gman needs to go to the doctors!! Ugh!! I swear this boy just finished a strong medicine last week and he's snotty and coughing AGAIN!!! So we were up and got the girl's fed, lunches packed and out the door! We tried to head back to bed but neither of us could really get back to sleep!! Once we got the boys up we really just had to get Little man "ready", once he was on the bus, T went to work and Gman, C and I headed to the doctors!!! We got there and put our name on the list for the walk in clinic and we were in to see Katie super quick!! We actually saw the student physician's assistant again first and then Katie. His lungs are clear but man he is one big ball of SNOT!!!! Even though he was running a little bit if a fever last night she don't think it's anything that needs antibiotics (they did a strep test too), so she prescribe a nasal spray, Flonase, and he has to have one spray in each nostril once a day and I have to call Katie back on Friday to let her know how he is doing!!! She said he could go back to school today - which was nice and he was thrilled - but I didn't pack him or lunch or put his bookbag together because I was sure he was staying home!!! Hahaha!! So we rushed home and I packed his lunch and through his book bag together and dropped him off at school! Then C and I ran to WalMart to pick up so stuff and then to The Dollar Tree to get a balloon and then to McDonald's for a "birthday" lunch get together for Braden! Amy and Alicia were there and so were Krsita, Elle and Joshua. C had fun playing with Elle, but he didn't really play with Braden or Alicia!! Then we had to run back to Wal Mart because I forgot washer fluid and I needed brake fluid because now for some reason my brake light is coming on!! Ugh!! Finally we headed home and got to chill for a bit!!! Little man and Gman got to stay after school today for games and a snack (Pay to Play Relay) so I went out and picked them up at 4:45PM. Then I came home and made pancakes for dinner!! Then it was time to get the kids showered and give Gman his first nose spray and then it was bed time for everyone!!!

Thursday, February 06, 2014

Ugh!!

So I was totally wishing for a 2 hour delay today, but no go! I was so grumpy when my alarm went off and I wanted to stay in BED!!! But I got up and T made pancakes and I packed lunches and then we went back to bed!! Hahaha!!! Second alarm went off at 7:30AM and we got up and went through the same routine to get the boys ready!! I jumped in the shower real quick before I finished up their lunches - believe me it was much needed!! Then we got the boys on the bus and C and I headed off to his school!! Once I dropped him off I headed to Wal Mart to get pull ups because even thought I got C up at 11PM to pee (and he peed), he still woke up wet and I hate washing sheets, to pick up soap, pull ups and milk!! Then I headed home and woeked on laundry and the kid's valentines!! Then I headed out at 11AM to get C. Once I got him picked up we went and picked up daddy to go to Mickey's for our weekly lunch date!! Daddy was just working in town today because he has to go to New Brighton to work pizza. So C and I came back home and he played his DS, I continued laundry and finished Gman and C's valentines!!
Gman's valentine's!
Woo Hoo and I started Little man's! Then I started scrapping some project life - trying to catch up. Then came dinner (spaghetti/meatballs), more scrapping and then it was time to shower the boys and get them into bed! Then it was back into the office for more scrapping and then daddy came home at about 9:30PM. Now I'm typing this and once I hit submit I'm headed to my bed to snuggle down under my electric blanket and catch a few zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz's!!!

Is it the weekend yet!?!?!

Well I was sleeping good until C woke us up at like 4AM, ugh I could not get back to sleep and when I finally did it was like only for 10 minutes before my alarm went off!! So we got up and S was like....I'm sick.....so we were like go back to bed and that then made our morning so easy!! T made oatmeal real quick for R's breakfast and since today was her Family History project feast today she didn't need a lunch so I just throw an apple and a cheese stick into her lunch box and we called it a morning, back to bed we went!! But of course I again had trouble falling back to sleep and only feel asleep about 30 minutes before my 2nd alarm went off!! We got up and got the boys breakfast, dress and out the door! I got C dropped off at school and came home and worked on my 2nd week of project life! Once I got C picked back up we went to Mickey's for our lunch date, but C didn't eat and wasn't feeling too well so we headed home. 

We got home and he went straight to his bed and fell right to sleep!! He didn't sleep to long and seemed to feel a little better once he was up, but he did run a low grade fever (100.1 degrees) all day!! I worked on my Christmas album all day and did a bit of laundry! I made egg sandwiches and sausage for dinner and daddy was home by 6PM!!! We got the boys showered and then Gman and C were fighting about something to do with Legos so I said enough is a enough and sent them to bed, it was only 15 minutes early, but man they needed it!! Then R and Little man went and then finally S! I worked on my album (it's almost done!!!) till about 9:30PM and now I'm in my bed writing this and then I'm gonna hit the hay!! It's been one long one!!

Guess what

 we had a 2 hour delay today! At least we knew last night at about 7PM so we could turn the alarms off and not have to worry about getting up and then finding out! We didn't do much during the morning, I just tried to keep everyone for getting on mine and each other's nerves! Finally got everyone out the door by 10:30AM and then C and I headed out because we needed to go grocery shopping! We hit Michael's first, but I didn't find anything worth spending my GC on, I did buy him this little Furby finger puppet!! Then we hit Aldi's and by the time we were done there I was STARVING!!!! So we went to McDonald's and ate our little belly's full!! 

C was so hungry he ate every single bite of his happy meal - even the apples!!! Then we hit Wal Mart and finished up our shopping!! We headed home and I unloaded the van and got all the cold/frozen stuff put away!! Then we both vegged for the rest of the day!! It's still super cold out and I spent some time snuggling in my bed reading!! Thankfully S texted me at about 2:50PM and she was on the bus on the way home, her chorus practice was cancelled!! Thank goodness - one less trip out in the cold!! I started dinner a little before 5PM - spaghetti and meatballs - and then once we were done R started getting read for her concert! We left the house at about 6:40PM to head to the Jr High. Her band concert started at 7:30PM and we didn't get out of there till after 9PM!! When we walked outside it had been snowing the whole time!! We headed home and now it's time for BED!!!

Got up today and took Christmas down!

I did the whole big tree by myself while T and S worked on all the knick knacks! Then once I'd drug the tree out on the front porch I swept all the hardwood floors and then vacuumed the rug! Then I took all the pine garland down from the hutch, the shelf and the kitchen window! Then I dusted everything and moved the black bookcase back. I emptied and dusted the bookcase in my office and then S and I moved it to the living room! 

T fed the kids lunch and then we showered and headed out to lunch at the Thai place! It was delicious! I had a yellow curry chicken fried rice! Then we headed to walmart and picked up a few essentials! Once back home T put the turkey in the oven and I put the prints I had gotten in the mail in my project life binder! Then A got dropped off by her dad for a sleep over at 5pm. 5:30pm rolled around and the turkey wasn't done so T ran out and picked up Papa John's pizza. We ate. The girls went down stairs, the boys whined and cried and I tried to read! Finally 8pm came and we put the boys to bed and T and I are now watching Under The Dome! I'm getting super tired though so I'm sure I'll he hitting the hay here very soon!!!
