  • Monday mornings are always a bit wild but we did fine this morning-no stopped up potties, no dryers full of inky clothes and both cars started.  So it started out as a pretty perfect Monday!  The kids all were dressed and downstairs in a few minutes-doesn't take too long when Robby starts playing a tv show.
  • We dropped off Campbell and Keaton first.  I think that Campbell really enjoys her Mondays with Nonna because as soon as we get there, she is ready for us to leave.  She is quickly turning into such a big girl.  
  • Next up was Graham.  He said he didn't want to go to school today but Reagan and then Anderson both whined that they still wished they were in Ms. Stacy's class.  This made it a bit easier for him to go into his class and when he saw that it was Birthday Bash, he practically skipped in that classroom.
  • We just had a few minutes to read in the car today before it was time to drop off Reagan and Anderson.  Then we walked them in-while inside I counted Reagan's stars on her desk.  She had 25 and was so proud.  
  • I then did my work and soon made the trip back to church to pick up Graham.  He told me that tomorrow the fire truck was coming to school (probably not true at all).  But he did have a cupcake today and had homework to bring back a toothpaste box.  I knew that homework was coming up so I had one saved for him (I am a Ms. Stacy's class pro.)
  • Then we headed to Nonna's house for lunch.  After lunch, we headed outside to play for a bit.  Graham rode his bike and Campbell pushed Keaton in the stroller.  Soon we headed home and the two little girls had a nap.  
  • Graham seemed to enjoy playing by himself today in the toy room for most of the afternoon.  Then we watched a bit of Cake Boss together while I worked on my coupons.  Soon Campbell and Keaton were awake and helped me price a bit of garage sale stuff.  
  • Before too long, Reagan and Anderson came home.  Anderson's teacher ran out of stickers today but he said that he earned one.  Reagan was only one of two in her class that was able to pick something out of the treasure box.  
  • At 5 we loaded up for practice.  We were a bit late and the boys and Reagan ran right out to the field to join their teammates.  I could hear Reagan cheering from where I was sitting and her coach said that she was the loudest cheerer.  The boys did pretty good in practice.  Graham did get smacked by the ball in the face (throwing by Robby I think) and cried for a few seconds.  We really need to work on them playing catch with each other.  
  • After practice, I passed out sandwiches and we had supper there and then we came home for put on pjs.  Next up was ice cream truck-it didn't come yesterday because we had cookies at church.  The kids were pretty tired tonight-maybe we should have practice every night!
