This morning we got ready for the cleaners, cleaning up. Much less stressful the mornings of the cleaners are going to be as I don’t need to run out to pre school. We cleaned up a bit. Plus tried to find toys all over the house. I wish I could get the kids to leave the toys in the right rooms. The kids played really well this morning. They played trains and then went outside. They hit balls with their golf clubs and played in the play house. Nicole had pretend conversations on her play house phones. We went to the Spectrum for play group. It was fun! We took the kiddos on the ferris wheel. Nicole and Justin were running around with their friends and having a great time. After I met with a photographer to help me figure out if I can really do this photography thing. It was a great meeting and totally got me motivated again. However, I have spent the better half of my day looking for a remote that is missing-ugh. Then the kiddos and I played in the futon room. I got to play with the moms, the car, and the little dogs. I even incorporated a train ride to keep Justin involved. We went over to Woodbury for dinner. The kids were begging to go to Chick-Fil-A. So we did. They love that little play area. Barely ate any food there. Then we ran over to a place so Justin could get his haircut. We had to wait a bit so we played on the grassy area and had great family time. We played tag, duck duck goose, and just ran around with the kids. The kids still tag carrot instead of tag your it. We came home and rushed upstairs to get ready for bed. I made it into a race. I said dad will fill up your water cups and then the kids and I ran upstairs. They got into their jammies and brushed their teeth so fast to beat daddy. I hope this trick works forever. Bret is up playing with a new router and I went for a run/walk tonight. I hope I can sleep as I am a bit wired from the run.
