This morning was pre school day but also Friday, a good thing. I was snack mom at school this morning. I got the job of shaving cream, ugh. It was messy, gooey, and smelly but the kids loved it. We put glitter in it and water coloring. I made the best of shaving cream and seeing the kiddos smiley faces was priceless. But it was so nice out so after snack I switched with a mom and went outside. Way better playing with the kiddos then cleaning up. We went to the library after school and got lots of new books. The kids loved it. We went to Michael’s craft store as well. I wanted to get some new crafts for the kiddos tonight since we are babysitting the triplets. The kids chose going to the craft store vs. lunch. I was worried I may have two melty children but they were fine. So we grabbed lunch after and so fun being out with the kiddos. When we got home I had a little time to myself then read some of the new books to the kiddos. Then they took a shower. Unfortunately reading to them made them a bit tired so they were pretty fighy in the shower. Finally I ended the shower and dried them off. They got dressed then did stamps. I am having them stamp the back of the envelopes to their birthday invitations. Then Mikey, Katie, and Sarah came over. Mikey and Katie went to play with Geo Trax. Justin heard this and went to join them. Sarah and Nicole did stamps for a bit. The kids all played really well together and didn’t make too much of a mess. After dinner we went on a flashlight/glow stick walk. By the end though Bret and I ended up carrying everything. The kids had a great time running around. When we got home everyone was hungry again, so got out the dinner again. It was fine just tiring as I felt like I was being ordered around. The kids all did play doh together. So nice to see them have such good friends. We read some library books and put the kids down (a little late though). Now I am off to rest-I think this is the first time I have stopped today.
