A Day in the Life

{Text conversation from this morning...}

SCOTT:  What's rest of docket looking like today?

ME:  Trying to get the house clean

ME:  Trying to go grocery shopping

ME:  Trying to get dinner started

ME: Trying to pick everyone up when they need to be picked up

ME:  Trying to take care of a sick schnookems

ME:  And finally -- trying to squeeze a nap in somewhere

SCOTT:  Living the dream in other words?

ME:  Living the dream  :)


Hahahaha.  Living the dream indeed.  I'm happy to report that despite taking care of a sick baby plus getting majorly distracted all day long, I managed to get every single thing checked off my list!  Except for the nap.  Womp womp.  That would have been nice, but I just ran out of time.





Schnookems took up the majority of the day by needing me to hold him or rock him, but after we picked up Alex from Preschool, we ran to the store and got what we need for dinner.  The two biggest bonuses of the day were in the form of a friend offering to pick up Ethan from track and the kids surprising the living daylights out of me by helping to clean the entire house when they got home from school in order to get it ready for Papi (my dad) who is coming into town tonight.  Then, while Ethan finished up an "emoji cake" for our FHE treat tonight, I was able to get dinner started while the baby finally fell asleep for the longest nap of our day!  The afternoon was TOTALLY a dream.  :)


 I think he has discovered that decorating a cake is a lot more complicated than I make it look for their birthdays.  ;)
