I was up early, and somehow I managed to get a shower and grab a cup of coffee before the kids were awake. Both of the boy’s slept better last night, and I got a little rest too. Thank goodness, I don’t think I’ve had a full night of rest for over a week.

Today it is freezing, so it looks like we will be in for the day. There is still plenty to do though, I’ve got to get all of James things packed for convention, and pick up any odds and ends.

I hope that you are having a great weekend and staying warm too.

The last few days have been those kind of days. Thade has been going stir crazy in the house, while I’ve been dealing with tummy troubles, and Dylan has been up on the hour the last two nights. I think I’ve clocked in 4 hours of sleep over the last two days.

I’m super busy too. I’ve got Thade’s Birthday Party to plan, 16 more bears to finish sewing, and James is getting ready to go to convention, so I have to have him ready to go too.

Yeah, Nico needs a break…

Happy Inauguration Day to all!

Yesterday Thade was busy drawing, so I asked what he was drawing. He said Kansas City, and he also said that he really missed Kansas City… I do too.

It looks like we are going to have to go and visit Uncle Rob in the city soon.

This morning we woke up to snow, and you know I am no fan of snow. The kiddos were thrilled though, and Thade desperately wanted to get out and make a snow Angel. Since it was almost time for school, I thought he had better not, so he was already mad at me, and we hadn’t even left the house yet.

I loaded up the car, and went on ahead and started it, because it was just too cold. The kiddos were slow going to get out of the door today, and we were almost late to preschool, thanks to some slick roads. I was headed back across town to go to MOPS, and as I was going up a hill the traction on my car kicked on, so I didn’t slide back down the hill. Yeah, I am so not a fan of Winter weather.

MOPS was fun today, and the breakfast was delicious. We had a fun demonstration, and we all got to decorate Cupcakes. All of my boys were happy about the surprise dessert at lunch today.

After MOPS I was back across town to pick up Thade, and then we were going to pick up lunch for James too. So one more trip back across town to grab lunch, and then another trip back across town to have lunch with Dad.

After lunch we were finally headed home, and both of my kiddos are so tired. I hope that it will be a quiet afternoon, and maybe I can get a few chores done around the house. The dishes are piling up in the kitchen (again) and I’m still playing catch-up on the laundry.

I hope that everyone is having a great Friday, and I bet everyone is ready for the weekend! Stay warm and toasty today, and watch out for the snow.
