Its Friday night and not a sound in my house right now. We recently have had some changes - like our schedule so we get up around 5 since we have to be at work by 7 in Corvallis. We also changed daycare providers, so this week the kids not only get up at 5 with me, but they are adjusting to someone new taking care of them and so they were really cranky tonite. When this goes on for 5 days in a row, meltdowns erupt from my girls as early as 5 in the evening.
We went to Walmart to get some additional groceries for some friends we have coming over on Sat night and the girls fought the whole time in the store. Some days I just want to crawl under a clothes rack when they act that way, but anyone that is a parent understands, which is why I dont take them with me that often. Saves us all some grief.
After we got home, they had dinner and baths and they were asleep by 730. Don is at a movie with his best friend, so I am actually getting some Mommy time - it is really nice. And I am spending it blogging.....thats why this one is longer than the others because I dont have a 2 yr old asking me what or why and I dont have a 5 yr old staring at me asking when I will be done. I should be doing laundry or something, but instead I am goofing off and it feels great!
This weekend we are doing a few things. We have a bbq dinner with friends Sat and then hang out at home Sun and then bike riding with our friends Natasha and Brock in Corvallis and then Tues is the start of School festivities for Sydney. She doesn't actually start Kindergarten until Sept 8, so this week is her open house and meeting teachers and doing assessments and stuff. She is really excited about getting to go to school. I guess that is all to report on for now. Nothing really that funny today- just an exhausting Friday where we are hoping to get some good sleep and be refreshed on Saturday!
