Day in the Life: May 2017

Howdy!

It has been a hot minute since I have blogged. We took Spring Break and then it seemed our schedules were just non-stop running. It finally ended Sunday after a crazy weekend of driving and picking kids up and getting very little if any sleep. Today I thought it would be fun to jump back into blogging by doing a Day in the Life post! I absolutely love these posts, and being able to document them from time to time helps see just how different things are in our lives or how very little has changed! So I picked a random day, and my day was last Tuesday May 2, 2017.

Sit back, grab a snack and enjoy a day in our crazy life!



Hubbs was up at 5:30 this morning, but I slept in until 6:15. Charlotte had been up at 2 having to use the bathroom so I needed a few minutes to get myself together before getting up, so I set a later alarm.

Kisses for hubby, coffee in hand and upstairs because I knew Char would be looking for me soon.

This morning brother decided to join us super early and so both kiddos were up and in my room at 6:24 this morning. 

At 6:30 we sat out on our front porch and waved bye to daddy as he left for work. We did the kisses and hugs inside and then they wanted to wave bye so we sat and watched him leave as well this morning

Then it was milk for Riley, and OJ for Charlie

and back upstairs because mommy really needed to wash her hair, so I put on Netflix cartoons for these two and hopped into the shower really quick

After my shower it was time for a diaper change for this boy and cuddles 

Back downstairs with bananas in hand

and more cuddles, since this boy is always attached to my hip at all times

Leftover lemon poppy seed muffins for breakfast with yogurt

Breakfast for these littles

while I emptied the dishwasher and then reloaded it, but didn't start it yet

I made myself a quick egg burrito with of course some yummy hot sauce

and then let the dog out at 8 because the sprinklers go off every other morning and today was one of those mornings so he had to wait a bit

Then it is time for work(catching up on my calendar, taking care of bills, etc) and reading my favorite blogs for the morning. This is also normally the time that I post my blogs, but it has taken the backseat for a few weeks so I wasn't working on a blog this day)

Then I head upstairs to start a load of laundry


And tidy up our bedroom and brush my teeth.

This boy has decided he wants to wear his breakfast

and Char helps me sweep up breakfast 

Then it is upstairs and dressed for these two, hair brushed and teeth brushed
and by 9 we are in the playroom playing


I check in on the kids and they are in the bedroom reading books with animals

We have cookies and milk for a snack today

and by 12:15 these two love bugs are in bed with books to go down for naps


Hubby got home early today from work and brought me pizza for lunch! It was so delicious

at 2:20 I hear this girl come out of the bedroom and she runs to the bathroom and then she joins Mommy and Daddy downstairs

at 3:45 this little wakes up from his nap and is ready for more cuddles with momma

4:00 these two have sandwiches and chips and water to drink

6:15 we are at the high school waiting to pick up the high schooler from drama club. she gets out at 6:30

It is a late night for dinner, I don't get the chance to start dinner until 7 tonight. Chicken and mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner

at 8:30 we are out of the bath and ready to get dressed in pjs

Dressed, hair brushed, and teeth brushed and last little wrestle between these two

Jammies and last cuddles and hugs for the night and into bed these two go.

After the kiddos go to bed and on nights Scott is home we watch tv, or play video games together. Tonight we played Minecraft together until about 10:15 and then headed upstairs to brush teeth and get ready for bed.

Alarms set for Scott and then mine alarm at 6:15, because sometimes I will get up with him and others I just cannot get out of bed

Night night world! 

I like to have the kids to bed no later than 8:30 but for the past couple of weeks it hasn't been so easy because I have been picking up their big sister from school at 6:30. It has been a rough couple of weeks and the next two weeks are pretty busy as well with last minute events and activities until school gets out so we are going to be running around like crazy! Cannot wait for this school year to be over and to go into summer! It already feels like summer here with temperatures in the 90s we just need to have nothing to do on these days and we will feel good!

Thanks for stopping by! 
Have a great day!

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to all! It's been a wonderful family weekend! Unfortunately our Memorial Day ended early, since Scott is now headed to work. He has to be in Miami, 7 am tomorrow! Yuck. Luckily Monday is almost over and we only have to make it until Friday until we see him again! Trying to stay positive and look at it as a good thing, not a bad. It is hard to see him leave, but I know he has to go to work. Charlotte was sad but luckily nap time was soon after he left so she transitioned into sleep fine. She will be upset when she gets up in a few but lots of cuddles, cartoons and playing until bed time will keep her preoccupied. We are headed to the beach this weekend, and then staying down there for the week while Scott works, but we will all be together and Mommy and Charlotte will be looking at houses while Daddy works so we will stay occupied with that and lots of pool time! Cannot wait until this week is over. May is almost over, then June is here! Cannot believe that! ...

Show and Tell Tuesday: School Photos

Happy Tuesday! Today I am joining Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday's and today we are showing Worst School Pictures! I have a combination of good and bad school pictures just to mix it up a little bit!  Little baby Cat right before Pre-K!  Back in 2005, I was in middle school and going through a short hair and converse phase where I wore a lot of black and tried to fit in with a certain group of people! I was such a goof And Throwing it back to 2004! Aren't I just cute?!  Senior Year of High School  Senior Year pictures! I had ridiculously long hair that didn't like to cooperate for pictures! Then I chopped all of my hair off before going off to college Kept it short second year of college And finally grew it out and even colored it, I was in a rebellious stage it seemed! Those are my worst and best school pictures! I don't have too many pictures from my school days just because everything was thrown away when I lef...

Life Lately!

Happy Monday! Its a little life lately post to catch up on our past week! I started back to school for my Masters, Scott started his senior year of undergrad and life has gone crazy!  This little is working on sitting up, and finding all of his toys that he didn't know he had until he became mobile. He isn't crawling but he is really good at rolling himself around the place!  With sister in school all day these two are becoming best friends! I'll catch Skyler pulling R's hair, but I will also catch them laughing and playing and reading together! It's the sweetest little bond!  He enjoyed rolling himself underneath his crib a lot, all while I was sitting in the room with him! He loves to explore, even when it means momma has to rescue him from under the bed :P Afternoon cartons, goldfish and playing with toys We have been reading lots of books lately, we are going to the library this week to get some books but Ri has enjoyed reading wha...
