Today was cool. Ordinary. Plans to go to a Civil War encampment were quickly thwarted when I realized how exhausted I was. LP pulled the blinds up in hopes that the sunlight would wake me up after calling out "Mommy" several times. When that failed he cried out that he was hungry which he knows is enough to wake me up from the dead. Alright, I'm up! Kingston decides that he wants to sleep in the most awkward spot underneath (sort of) the bed, so I almost stepped on him. Holy crap, King.....way to really wake me up. LP and I did our morning ritual (brush teeth, bathe, etc.) then had breakfast together. I tried to do laundry as best as one could with a 4 year old chasing them around with a crushed banana in his hands. It was all squishy....ewww. Well once he ate the banana he was defenseless and the chaser became the chase-ee (not a word but you know what I mean). We had a tickle fight that lasted 30 minutes before I realized that there was only one 4 year old in the apartment. All that running was wearing me out! So I sipped on coffee while I made LP his favorite dish of tilapia and roasted potatoes (he never eats the broccoli) followed by some ice cream. None for me though (gave it up for Lent). Took some time to twist my hair up. The girl's diapers were finally washed and stuffed so I napped for an hour. LP decided to give me a break and painted on his easel while I slept. When I woke up he reminded me to water the tomato and lettuce plants that we're trying to grow out on our balcony garden. It was so sunny on the balcony, I told little man to meet me outside. However not before a video call with my brand new niece (almost 3 weeks and just the cutest). So anyway LP and I had a ball (a soccer ball to be exact) at the park. We walked to Walgreens to buy Lighting McQueen bubbles for him and then to Tropical Smoothie (love, love, love them) for a Mango Magic for me. Or is it Mango Madness? Oh who cares that smoothie is exquisite! Of course I started running late. Time flies when I'm with my boo. I dropped him off at daycare (had to drag him out of the car). Squeezed in a few moments to fuss (aka drown them in kisses) over my girls before rushing out of the door. Hit 90 mph on the interstate and was still 15 minutes late (darn!). Now, I'm sitting here at work hurting like crazy after working out on my lunch break. Working on this here blog and talking to an old friend on facebook to take my mind off of the overall body ache...lol. Highlight of my day: After our tickle fight, LP said I love you...unprompted. Yeah boy! Who's the greatest Mommy to the greatest boy alive?? That will be me. Whoop whoop. Don't hate! Lol. *performing celebratory dance*
And that's it. A day in the life. Yeah, yeah I'm boring. So what!
