Mom Saturdays

6:45 a.m.: My alarm goes off. WHY???? Is it Friday again? No wait, I just forgot to turn it off from yesterday. I can't go back to sleep.

7:15 a.m.: Osh is awake and standing in his crib. He sees Hubby when I carry him into bed and reaches for him. They snuggle in the most perfect snuggle. I give him a bottle and he drinks some for awhile while looking at us. I enjoy when we get to have one on one time with just a baby instead of both sometimes because I feel like it gives them such lovely attention. Osh decides it would be more fun to spray his bottle all over the bed instead of drink it. I know I should stop him, but he looks so funny doing it.

7:30 a.m.: Ever gets up and we have family snuggle time. I love the mornings when we are all in bed together! The babies have learned to jump on the bed so they do that. It's not a real jump, but their best attempt at jumping.

8:00 a.m.: I really need to go running. I get all ready and leave the house.

9:06 a.m.: I get back in my car after having run 5 miles in only 50 minutes, yay! It was so cold I had thought about maybe only doing a mile but I did the whole thing.

9:15 a.m.: I arrive home to a red-eyed Peanut and she needs some mommy snuggles. Hubby gets her a bottle and I take her up to her bed for a nap. She reaches for me so I wrap her in a blankie and she and sweaty mommy lay in bed. We need to leave the house in 40 minutes to get to the Earth Walk we signed up for. Many meltdowns from babies that need sleep ensue.

10:03 a.m.: We are in the car and on our way. It is FREEZING out! We make it to the walk just in time to see an adorable little boy in green and blue rain boots tell everyone in the microphone it's time for the walk. I realize that walking three miles after running 5 miles was bad and my legs hurt quite a bit. The babies did great! Ocean got sick of it with just a little less than half a mile to go.





12:00 p.m.: We are done with the walk and the babies are screaming. We stop at the bagel shop to eat lunch which makes the monkeys happy.

1:00 p.m.: We go to my Grandma's to taste test the birthday cupcakes. The choices are chocolate banana and pink lemonade. They are both so delicious! We play around for a long time and get to go to the clubhouse to see the layout of the birthday party. Ever gets to try her first cupcake cone and she even shares some with her great Papa!





3:30 p.m.: We go to Michael's to purchase fabric markers with our coupons for the monkey's people can decorate to take with them from next weekend's party. We also go to Party City and see tons of things that I will be buying when I get off from work early Friday to pick up all the balloons.

5:00 p.m.: We eat dinner at Chik-Fil-A. The babies play in the play area and a little girl is all over Ever. I want her to stop but don't want to piss off her mom or hurt her feelings. I am started to get pissed that her family doesn't tell her not to do that. They finally leave and the babies and hubby go down the slide multiple times.





6:00 p.m.: At home we play out on the back deck. I realize our kitchen table makes us look like hoarders and think I should clean it. I don't. Maybe tomorrow. Okay, I clean a little bit and work on some hairbows.





6:45 p.m.: The babies are getting whiny. We play around as long as we can. Hubby decides to mow the grass and I try to entertain them. I give them some food and then we have a bath around 7:45 p.m.

8:05 p.m.: Babies pass out within minutes while hubby and I are watching "Jennifers Body" on tv which is completely stupid but I had to keep watching. I love when the munchkins pass out with their lips pouted and their little bellies hanging out of their shirts. I give kisses and they go to bed.

9:20: Hubby leaves to get a movie and ice cream while I write this post. I'm hoping to be in bed by 10:30 tonight although I've had trouble falling asleep before 11 the past week. Next weeks Mom Saturdays should be a doozy, it's the big party!
