Thursday 13- the delights of my day.
in order!
- send the kids out the door ON TIME! BACK TO SCHOOL! whoohoo!
- call and cancel the bus and call preschool Hope stayed home today. she had a bench fall on her toe the other day, instantly blackened the nail and broke the skin (explosive) all around the cuticle and can't wear shoes. and screams if it gets stepped on. so she got a bonus day off.
- Ashley stopped by on her way to the park. and surprised me with the funnest gift ever! a bunch of the glittery fuchsia snowflakes from Target! from her and ZB! i have the nicest friends to think of me! THANKS GIRLS I LOVE THEM! you are so sweet!
- I invited myself to go to the park too and let Hope and Pierce play. so fun! to hang out and let the kids do their own thing.
- it happened to be park day with the girls in my ward. and some of them showed up so when Ashley had to leave to take little L to school, i hung out with them, then another friend and a neighbor showed up! i was there from 11-1:30.
- came home and designed my own mommy cards! hello love them! i really want some!
and put Pierce down for his nap - Took Hope to the DR. she has an ear infection. that is RAD
- went to sonic for happy hour loving my sonic Dr. pepper and rt. 44 ice water with extra ice! heavenly
- dropped off the prescription at CVS and then ran in to sign up for the card there.
- came home and blogged a little, then started feeling cruddy, too many late nights and the early morning today caught up. i think my neck is out AND i have a sinus cold coming on. LAME.
- i told Lance i felt yucky and he gave me the go ahead to go to bed and NAP! whoohoo! love the working from home thing. baby naps while i go to Dr. and then i nap while he is in charge and works. fabulous! for me. thanks honey!
- I woke up to dinner cooked and ready. spaghetti tastes so much better when someone else cooks it! thanks HONEY! you are the best!
- and an alone trip to Target! the girls needed socks. they just got new school sneakers(first pair this year. sad, but true, and haven't worn socks all year either.) and got blisters from wearing no socks. so i had to go get some, i also scoured the christmas clearance for any fuchsia ornaments. and bought some lighted garland for next year. whoohoo i love clearance. then i came home to chat with my friends on google chat ! love it!
but i am feeling super successful about being on time all month so far to school. ONE day is a beginning. I like to make it sound really good. the trick to that? being on time i mean , i had all the clothes laid out for the 4 big school kids , shoes, and backpacks cleaned out and with each pile of clothes. i need to do it every night. and then mornings would be smooth like butta!

Good 4 u being On time! We were TOTALLY late today! Nathaniel woke ME up at 9am!!! Yikes! Not a good start for the new year! It's so embarrassing taking them to the office really late w/o a real excuse.
What a fabulous day! I love those cards. What a crazy fun idea! I was so ready for school to start!!
Sounds like you had a busy day! Congrats on getting the kids off to school on time. WTG Mom!
Great day! YOu got a TON done. It was so hard to get up and get Corbin off to school on time today! LOVIN the mommy cards!
I am sorry your sick. It's great how many people saved your day! I swear by laying everything out the night before... If I fall asleep and forget I wake up in the night and do it. It saves my mornings and we are never late.
It stinks that you're not feeling well, but how great of Lance to let you nap and make dinner!
I am TOTALLY into getting everything ready the night before. Even for the twins. I have a counter where the older 3 kids have to p ut EVERYTHING they will need. Even snow boots and snowpants. They all 3 get dressed right there where I can see them since the older 2 with ADHD get distracted.
We did not do it last night because of the caucus and it was insane this morning.
A GREAT DAY!
I am glad that you liked the ornaments~ we automatically thought of you!!
I LOVE that you met us at the park. It was SOOOOO much more fun for me that you were there. And I love love love the birthday gift you gave me!
Happy Day!!
What a busy, productive day - sinus infection and all! I guess you get pretty good at that with 6 kids! I was sick last week and had to tough it out with the kids. Sure wished my hubby worked from home too - how nice is that?? Hope you feel better tomorrow!
