Week in the Life // Thursday 7/28

Not a lot of pictures yesterday - very short on sleep Wednesday. (Teaching the boy to sleep through the night is NOT going well). But, I did have some fun ones from the day.

Amy asked me if I'm going to put these pictures in an album and I am hoping to do that next week! I have a plan in my head involving baseball card size sheet protectors and I'm going to put this right into my Project Life album. Now, we'll see how much actually gets accomplished since we are planning on starting school next week. I have participated in Week in the Life for several years now by way of photos so I'm really going to try and do something with the pictures this week.

Breakfast: grits. N2 loves grits and will go through streaks on having me make them for her for breakfast.



Diaper.



Working with the boy on some morning room alone time.



T getting ready to head out to work.



His (to-go) and hers morning coffee.



Working on meal planning and a grocery list. Spent WAY too long working on this today because I just couldn't get focused.



After lunch cookies.



These two were having so much fun playing with this doll stroller. He LOVED being pushed around in it. It was cracking me up.



Dinner: spaghetti, brussell sprouts. (The kids didn't eat brussell sprouts ... actually am trying to remember if I fed them a vegetable at all ... oops.)



Baths.



Clean boy.



Some of what is waiting for me on the playroom floor.



What T is doing downstairs - working on music for Sunday's service.



Evening viewing. We have tickets to see the last Harry Potter next week so we're reviewing.

Week in the Life // Wednesday 7.27

A look at our Wednesday ... my apologies for the crazy spacing in this post. I was having issues with the pictures and gave up on getting it straightened out.

Morning shots:

Quiet time reading first thing // 1st little one up with me coloring and playing on my phone // my brief computer time this morning - email, read a few blogs (especially checking on those folks that are doing Week in the Life) // getting the boy up // the boy helping with laundry





A little school schedule planning.

What to make for lunch...

What I ended up with. (The kids had  some lunchmeat, crackers, cheese, chex mix. Whatever we could find.

Looking at today's list...

We went outside after lunch and sat on the patio, walked around the backyard, ate popsicles. (I handed the camera off to one of the girls here)













Read aloud before rest time. B's pick - Lion King. Our new chapter read aloud - Little Men.





Resting (niece + B).



Resting (N2) + my rest time book.





We watch a video (Phineas & Ferb) after rest time ... the baby is still napping and Mama is engrossed in The Help. Buys me 20 more minutes of reading time. : )



Dinner pasta.



Outside with the neighbor.



Popcorn before bed.

Week in the Life // Tuesday 7.26

Tuesday (with pictures actually in order today. Go me.) : )

Morning faces.



Breakfast.



Screen shot of my weight watchers app on my phone. Checking in for breakfast. I will miss the nursing mother's extra points I get when I stop.



Dishwasher unloading/loading.
















Laundry.



Texting with my BFF. (Another screen shot).



Boy clothes.




Little girl room explosion.



Freshly showered.



Lunch. Grilled cheese, tomato soup (for those that like it), veggies and dip, pretzels.



My lunch.




A little school-starts-next-week reading and inspiration.



Afternoon trip to the library. Looking up something on the card catalog.



Working on N1's fall reading list. Same plan as her summer one - we're continuing it with a fall version. I'll try and remember to come back and blog that next week when I get her books picked.



Roasting green beans and asparagus for dinner.



Quesadillas for kids.



Outside for a 1/2 hour or so before bedtime.



Are you taking my picture Mom?



Thus ends Tuesday. : ) For this, I am almost exclusively using my point and shoot camera that fits in my purse and my iPhone. If I wait until I have a hand free to lug my good camera around, we wouldn't have any pictures at all!
