Charles had an extra long bishopric meeting, so he was gone by 7:10. I got kids going, got myself ready, prepared dinner and the dessert, and had us all to church on time. Sacrament meeting was good...well, the bits I heard were. We meet right during Crawford's nap time so he was pretty grumpy. Sharing time went well. I taught on the Atonement. We ( Read more... )

Charles got up early and went to play stake basketball. The kids and I had eggs for breakfast and got ready for the day. When Charles got home, he started working on getting the old dishwasher out and widening the spot for the new dishwasher. I took the kids to a birthday party, then brought them home, fed them lunch, and put them down for naps. ( Read more... )

Pretty boring day. We did babysit for two families with two boys each, so four extra boys. Well, I was out getting my eyes checked for the first hour...so Charles watched them solo until I was home. Thankfully they are pretty great kids, so it was pretty easy.

Normal morning. Crawford discovered that toast is great for dipping in yogurt. Took Charles to work and Sydney to school. Wen to Target, but didn't buy anything. Came home and did some cleaning and dishes. Crawford never really napped, so he was either crazy or grumpy the rest of the day. Picked up Sydney and went to the store to pick up a birthday ( Read more... )

It snowed almost all day today. Crawford and I went grocery shopping. I shoveled the driveway. We came home from picking up everyone and had dinner and then hung out at home.

Sydney started back at school today. Crawford and I went to the scout office to turn in some paperwork. We then ran to the store and then to story time at the library. Came home and did dishes and watched Primary trainings while Crawford napped. Picked up Sydney and helped her with homework. Picked up Charles and went out to dinner, since I forgot ( Read more... )

No school today, since it was negative 9 degrees before the wind chill. Charles drove himself to work. We did some cleaning, watched a lot of movies and Sesame Street, and just stayed inside. I took down the Christmas tree and put most of the Christmas stuff away. Sydney taught FHE and Charles had us do an indoor photo scavenger hunt for our FHE ( Read more... )

It was so cold today. Having church at 11 makes a world of difference in how our day goes. Charles went to Bishopric and Ward Council at 8, while I got kids ready, got myself ready, feed the kids breakfast and a light lunch, did some Primary stuff, and got dinner cooking in the crockpot. Church was good. I really love listening to the kids make ( Read more... )

Woke up and snuggled with Crawford for a bit...which is really Crawford crawling all over me while I try to get him to hold still. Ate breakfast, got ready for the Temple, and got the kids ready for the day. Went to the temple with Charles. It was nice; I came out feeling much more comfortable with my new calling. After the temple, we went to ( Read more... )

We have been pretty awful about getting up on time while Sydney has been on break. Guess we have to be better on Monday. We took Charles to work, then came home. I did the dishes while the kids watched Sesame Street and played. We ate lunch and the kids had quiet time/nap time while I packed to go to Bellevue for the night. We picked up Charles and ( Read more... )
