• I can assure you that the first thing we will be doing this weekend is moving Bentley's kennel into the other corner of our room. I woke up right at 6 this morning-but I had to go to the bathroom. I knew what that means though-if you walk by the dog, she wakes up and needs to go to the bathroom. I waited as long as I could, and even thought about going to the kitchen bathroom, but eventually I did walk by Bentley causing her to wake up.
• Robby was already awake at this time on his phone, so I figured that since he was awake, he could take her out. He did and played with her for a while before they both went back to sleep until my alarm rang and rang again.
• We then started school this morning-we started a bit late plus at one point people kept just leaving. It is the new favorite thing while I am doing reading to decide that Bentley has to potty and take her out. We were eventually able to finish our reading and started on school work.
• I did keep Whitman right by me today and thanks to some easier math, he was finished around 11. He was pretty pleased with himself. Graham used to be the one with laser focus, but since Bentley has arrived he is always walking around finding her to play with. We were finishing up his work at 12:30 today.
• Robby took Reagan to school and picked up lunch on the way home. While he was gone, I worked on some of my own Bible study plus Bible study with the girls. I also did some bathroom cleaning-I decided that it was too much trouble to carry all of my supplies with me so I just went once to all the bathrooms to sweep, then made the loop again to clean the sinks, then around again to clean the potties, and finally to mop the floors. It took forever that way, but I guess that I got my exercise before eating my Chick Fil A.
• Lily came over today to play some. The girls and her played soccer, jumped on the trampoline and were busy the entire afternoon. Campbell and Keaton are all about practicing soccer right now-I need to get Whitman outside to do some with them.
• I did my treadmill (more importantly my Hallmark movie) before picking up Reagan. I took Bentley and she was so happy playing with Lily's dog. I am glad that she has a little friend to play with. My girls stayed over there for a bit more of the evening.
• Back at home, Reagan and I worked on her sewing project. We are cutting apart and remaking a sweatshirt-it might just look good. Then it was time for us to find our suppers for the evening. The kids took showers and soon we were all vegging around the tv watching basketball.
