Daddy Home Today

June 19th, 2008 by melissa

We can’t wait till 5:00 when Bret’s plane lands. Well this morning I heard Justin at 7:00. I came in the room and told him to get back to bed. Little did I know he would sleep until 8:45. Nicole was up at 7:30. I am sitting in their room trying to get Nicole to nap right now. She seems tired. Anyway we had to be at Messy. Muddy, Hands, and Toes at 9:00. So Justin ate his breakfast on the go. The class was so cute. The kids first laced fruit loops on ribbon. Of course my kids ere still hungry from lack of breakfast, so they decided to eat most of them. So I laced them and they ate. Then we got spaghetti with paint on it. What a mess. The kiddos took the spaghetti on their paper and painted with it. It was fun. Justin and Nicole pretty much got paint all over their hands and did hand prints. Next was painting with brocoli. That was really cute. Nicole smears it all over the paper and Justin presses it down. The last project was painting with carrots. Of course the kiddos wanted to eat them. It was a great class. Then we just came home. After our big day yesterday home sounded nice. And the house was a mess. The kids played in the back of the car for a bit. Then came in the house and played. They were fighting a bit, so I decided it was time for a shower. They were pretty dirty from Sea World and class. They both love their baths and showers. Then we had lunch. We played with all the balls, babies, trains, blocks, etc. We came upstairs and read a ton of books. No nap and Nicole was pretty naughty at nap. She got her books taken away and had to stay in her bed even after I let Justin out. Then the kiddos just watched TV for a while, Barney and Elmo’s World. We played at home for a bit and ate popcorn. We went to Grammy’s while we waited for daddy to come home. Well the phone calls started and the plane was delayed and delayed. The kids were so excited to see daddy too. So we played at Grammy’s. It was so hot today so the kiddos played on the steps of the pool. Finally we found out daddy wouldn’t be coming in till about 8:35. Grammy and I took the kiddos to Red Robin. The kiddos did great, and got balloons as a reward for being so great at the restaurant. Nicole’s balloon popped on the way to the car, so we ran right in and got her another one. Justin chose a blue balloon and Nicole got a pink one. We hung out at Grammy’s waiting for daddy to come home. The kids played with Grammy’s toys. Justin really liked the tractor (a toy daddy had). Then the kiddos got into all the cd’s. UGh what a mess, but they were having fun building towers and playing together. We went to the airport to get daddy. The kids loved the light tunnel we had to go into to get daddy. Justin wanted to show daddy his blue balloon. We headed home and the kids gave daddy a big hug and Nicole wanted daddy to take her out of her car seat. Well the kids went to bed a little late but it was so sweet watching them with their daddy. Sanders’ family is intact again 🙂
