Thursday

Yesterday was such a great day, but it left me with lots of busy work for today. I enjoyed every moment of my pedicure and the girl who waxed my eyebrows did a good job and even massaged my face for a few minutes. I even got talked into a lip wax so I feel so well groomed...now if I could just see my bikini area *LOL* Went to the fair afterwards and had a blast with the kiddos. Today I really need to run around and get things ready for our short weekend trip to Washington. We leave friday afternoon and get back sunday morning...seems like a lot of work to do for just a few days away! Brian sure does get the good end of the deal...he just packs his own clothes and that's it. I've got to make sure that things are ready for the kids to be with sitters, the house is clean, there's food to eat, etc. I guess that's all part of my job description...I think I'm coming back as a Dad in my next life though ;) But I guess that the groceries won't buy themselves and the laundry isn't going to be walking down here to hop in the washing machine...so off I go to start my business for the day!!

Time for Mommy

I'm so excited to get out of the house and have a break from the kiddos this morning. My mom is going to watch them so that I can go and get a pedicure...and I'm even going to have them wax my eyebrows so I don't look like Ernie from Sesame street anymore. I haven't been to the nail place in FOREVER and I'm just excited to go and sit and do nothing. My friends coming too, so it doesn't get much better. I feel so blessed to live close to family!! I guess that I had better get the kids out of their jammies if I'm planning on bringing them to Nona's house in half an hour.

Good hair day

Do you ever wake up and actually like how your hair looks? I had to shower late last night and ended up going to bed with damp hair...but I must say that when I woke up this morning and looked in the mirror it wasn't as scary as usual. Yes, I still had dark circles under my eyes and not the best morning breath...but I actually like the way my hair looks. I'm sure once I brush it it will be back to it's normal blah self. But the messy look is in right so who says I need to brush my hair today *LOL*

I did lots of my domestic duties yesterday, so I've just been lounging on the couch this morning. But it's already 8:30am so I guess that I should get us all out of our jammies and get a game plan for the day. I do need to get the laundry put away from yesterday and start preparing for our babysitters this weekend...but I think we'll just relax today. We might hit up Chuck E. Cheese's for lunch with a friend and then I'm hoping for naps from atleast one of the kids. We'll see how the day ends up going :) Gotta go and finish my pretend chocolate bubble gum from Melanie...this girl cracks me up!

Boring Mondays

Well I enjoy reading other people's blogs so I thought I would start one as well. Seems like a nice way to blab about my day as well as vent! Hey, I guess if I like random details about other's days then maybe someone wants to hear the randomness of mine. Hopefully I won't bore you all or completely turn you away with my lack of good writing style.

Today was not too much different then most mondays...I didn't have any plans and it was so HOT that we stayed inside almost all day. Inspite of having two crazy toddlers, I did manage to get a bunch accomplished today.

I started and finished about 4 loads of laundry...which has yet to be put away!
Went to the grocery store and Costco
Deposited money at the bank
Swept and mopped the kitchen floor
Vacuumed the family room
Got some pics developed and actually put them into the photo album

Melanie and Brandon were both a bit cranky today. Brandon seems to be at a stage where he is constantly whiney. I'm sure that it's because he's not talking yet and has so much he wants to express, but can't. but sometimes I think it's just his way of throwing a tantrum. He's only been napping for about 20-30 minutes the last few days and he's driving me bananas! Melanie usually naps once or twice during the week...and today was the day that I really forced the nap. It was nice because I was able to get a lot done while she slept and there was no fighting!

Her new thing to do is take things and hide them so Brandon can't play with them. She's such a stinker lately with him! I hope that as they both pass these crazy ages they might actually play together better!

Well, I suppose I could just keep going and going, but that's enough for today. It's 5:45pm in my neck of the woods and I should probably get going with dinner...although I would much rather just continue to sit on the couch a be on the computer.
