I always enjoy reading other people's day in the life blogs so I thought it would be fun to do my own!
I documented our day yesterday, and it was a very typical day for us.
6:42 - up and at 'em! I always shower before the boys get up at 7 or else it won't happen!
I get Graham up first at 7, and we put pancakes in the microwave for him and Bennett.
Bennett is ready for some pancakes!
Every morning my SIL Katie and I exchange bitmojis and coffee selfies!
We look good this morning!
7:45 - bar stools are already in the laundry room to keep Bennett from climbing on them
8:30 - start a load of laundry
It was a rain boot kind of day!
8:50 - out the door for school!
9:05 - My first stop after drop off in the mornings!
9:10 - back home to pay some bills, switch out laundry, and keep an eye on this one!
He wanted to try on some of my shoes while I was hanging up clothes!
9:40 - Out the door again for Bennett's 18 month check up at the dr
10:00 - Ready to cheese it up for the dr!
So thankful for our healthy, growing boy!
Off the charts!
10:45 - We leave the dr after just one shot and go across the street to the mall. I made some returns to Old Navy and got some new make up at Macy's. I also picked up Chick-Fil-A for my lunch because I had told the boys we would go to Sonic for lunch after school
11:40 - Waiting the parking lot at Graham's school scarfing down my lunch.
12:00 - School pickup! And we had a special treat today - Maddie got to come home with us since her mom got stuck at a dr's appointment in the med center. They were so excited! We got lunch at sonic, back home to eat, and then Maddie's mom picked her up at 1.
After that I thought about dinner and got it out and ready.
Fancy, I know! Marinated chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans. It's a meal that all of my boys love!
1:30 - Ready for a nap!
2:00 - Both boys are asleep. I do a quick pick up around the house, and I'm ready to tackle laundry. I watched Scandal while folding!
All done!
After that I worked on a few things for the spring fling at Graham's school that I'm co-chairing.
4:15 - I wake the boys up and we watch a show and eat snacks!
Cuddles and a smoothie!
5:00 - Stephanie and I had our daily chat on the phone while I watched Bennett read and play in his room.
5:30 - The troops were getting restless so I busted out a Target $1 spot find! Race track tape that I put down in the hallways. It kept their attention for all of about 4 minutes...
6:00 - Mr. Trouble starts carrying things out of his trash can into the living room.
Who me?!
6:40 - Daddy's home! What you can't hear in this picture is the yelling and screaming!
Our favorite part of the day!
7:15 - After dinner we have some play time and fun with the whoopee cushion that the Easter bunny brought Graham!
7:30 - Trent does bath time and I enjoy a minute of peace and quiet on the couch.
Family selfie on the couch during wind down time! Bennett usually likes to read while Graham plays on his iPad. Bennet was put to bed at 8:15 and Graham was at 8:45. Trent and I watched Limitless on our DVR before calling it a night!
9:50 - I washed the last few cups from the day, turned on the alarm, and called it a night!
I'm so thankful for these sweet days with my boys!
