Britt has a challenge going on at SM right now to scrap a typical day in your life, so I decided today I would take pictures for my page. I've done these kind of things a few times before on my baby board, so I went to search for the last one we did. I found it, and it's from October 11th, 2006, almost exactly 2 years ago, how weird is that? So, today I'm going to post it here, and then maybe I'll scrap that one for my 06 book someday. Tomorrow (or later in the week) I'll get today's DITL posted, and hopefully scrapped by the end of the month (when it's due).
Wednesday 10.11.06
I wake up when Matthew comes in to tell me it's a little bit after 7. M climbs on me and tells me "Wake up babe, it's 7, 2 o'clock."
I lay there wishing I could go back to sleep.
10 minutes later Matthew comes back in to say he's leaving and talk for a minute about how M's been acting.
I get up and get showered and dressed.
Somewhere around 8 I walk out to the living room and find M watching Sesame Street...
Then I head in to get R who's been chatting in his crib for a while. Just be glad you can't smell through the camera, his room is stinky!! He acts like he's still tired...
Diapered and dressed and now it's breakfast time. Cheerios, banana, and milk for the kids...
And a bowl of cereal for me. I eat it while checking my email and pnic.
(I ate the same thing at the same spot this morning)
M gets dressed and then it's off to school at 9
R and I run some errands...
I found these cups for 62 cents, R wouldn't let go of them for anything!
It's such a nice day I decide to take the car home and then walk to the bank. No pictures of that.
We get back from the bank at around 10:30 and I give R some snack... raisins and dino crackers
Then we play for a while...
I put on his Veggie Tails cd and he dances
But then he starts to get fussy so I put him in his room for some quiet time, he does so well when he's in there by himself! I check pnic and ebay and then go in to get him. This is what I find...
We go back out the living room and I ask him if he wants to go outside, he ignores me and finds a book.
I read to him and then we go outside for a little bit but all he wants to do is run off so I water the flowers and then come back inside.
12pm lunch time!!
Leftover stuffed pizza for me, and pizza and apple slices for R
We hang out for a little bit after lunch and listen to our new Disney cd that came in the mail today!
Then R decides he needs to comb his hair before we go get Sissy at school.
1pm and here we are at M's school
(R is at the same school right now)
1:15 and we're home and down for naps
1:30 before I get M in bed
I play around online, read my bible, play some more online, Matthew stops home to grab some papers he's supposed to copy, I make a CD, try to think if there's any cleaning I should be doing, read the paper, check online, wish I had a magazine... then I get bored because the kids are taking really long naps today!
3:30 or so... and they're up!
M wakes up happy and comes in to R's room where I'm just getting him up
She asks to do her homework right away
And R wants to color too
Once she's done w/ her homework around 4:15 I get her changed (she gets SO dirty at preschool!)
And we're off to Target before church.
I get R a booster seat (which after opening I don't like), stock up on basic tights for M (but decide to wait on the cute striped ones until she's not with me so I can put them in her stocking), and some candy. We see one of her teachers in the candy section and M thinks that's really cool!
5:30 and we're off to church for dinner and class. They're having ham, cheesy potatoes, candied carrots, and bread for dinner, and lemon squares for dessert, yum!!
R throws his plate on the floor.
During dinner I talk to one of my pregnant friends who's due in March. She had a surprise ultrasound today and her doctor is pretty sure she's having another girl. I don't tell her, but I'm a little sad, nobody has a boy except me.
We talk to some other friends too, and M listens to some people talk about putting a truck in the trucker's parade that goes on at Christmas. She gets very excited about that.
6:15 and I drop M off at her class. R screams when I leave him with good friends in the nursery, he's just started with that this month and it's driving me crazy. I know he'll be fine though.
6:30 and I head upstairs to my class. It's REALLY boring and I wonder why I signed up for it. Oh well, at least they have candy there.
7:30 and we've gone over the whole worksheet in class, I'm hoping we might get out early. Nope, the teacher keeps asking if there's more comments or questions. I'm stuffed up and I want to go home!
7:55, she lets us out 5 minutes early.
I head to get the kids and drive home. On the way home M talks about the trucker's parade and R screams.
8:30, we're home and I'm getting them in bed.
8:50 Just after I get them both down Matthew comes home. I'm a little mad, he does that a lot, he must do it on purpose.
He says he thought I'd be glad that he's home in time to watch Lost with me, I am, a little bit.
I pop online for 2 minutes before Lost starts.
10pm Lost is over and I check on the kids before heading to bed...
I love sleeping babies.
This is them "playing beach and pretending that the waves were coming and they didn't want any of their stuff to sink" (as told by M)
My little NUT, he's wearing his teddy bear's sunglasses
We went to the pumpkin patch AGAIN last Sunday (yes, that would be the 3rd time this season) because I wanted to get a big pumpkin that we could carve, the rest of the pictures are from that...
With our pumpkin (click to make it bigger). The last picture is when I told them to let me get "one cute one"
They played on the hay maze again for a while too
Hay Head!
I'll be back tomorrow with a scrapbook post. :)
