Goin’ Shopping
I usually shop on Mondays, but today Thade and I went out for groceries. James is off work and said he would take care of Dylan while we shopped. Thade had a lot of fun getting to run errands with just Mommy, and we were in and out of the store in under an hour. Yahoo!
Monday is going to be a busy day. We are having a new electrical line run, and Dylan has to go to the doctor for a check-up and shots too. I’m glad to have the shopping done early.
Here is the plan for today:
* Clean the kitchen
* Make banana muffins
* Make bread crumbs
* Make baby wipes
* Dishes
* Laundry
* Tidy up downstairs
* 3 loads of laundry
Waffle Time
I was starving this morning, and staring at the fridge I saw nothing that I wanted for breakfast. I thought waffles might be good, so I peeked in to the freezer, and no waffles were to be found. I decided to dig out my waffle maker and give it a try. I got out my trusty red Betty Crocker cook book and found a quick and easy recipe for the batter.
Thade decided that he wanted to help out too, and kept himself busy stirring the dry ingredients. I cleaned up the waffle maker, and hoped for the best. This was my first attempt at making waffles from scratch, and they turned out so great. They were crispy,light, and much tastier than the frozen ones. I’m definitely taking the time and making these again. The recipe that I used made 12 waffles, and I have my freezer stocked for quick breakfasts.

Poor Thade is so sick with the flu today. He got sick in the living room, the kitchen, and the dining room too. While I was cleaning up the carpet, and hardwood floors I decided to throw his blankets in the washing machine they were a little stinky. I walked in to the utility room and stepped in cat poop. GRRRRR! It is just one of those days.

Thade is not feeling well today. He woke up this morning feeling yucky everywhere, and a hurt tummy too. We are going to be sticking pretty close to home today, with Thade resting on the couch. I hope that he feels better soon.
Dylan had a grumpy tummy last night. He kept mommy busy changing lots of diapers. He is doing much better today. I hope it is just a 24 hour bug that the boys have, and they will both be back to normal soon.
