Hey Ya'll! Today I am doing a day in the life post! It's my first Day in the Life of 2018 and lets just say this year has started out busy! I recorded a day in the life of last Thursday, February 15, and it was insane.
Normally I go to they gym at 4:30 in the morning, but I woke up feeling way too tired since hubs got in at 3 am and I of course waited up for him, so we slept in a little bit later than I normally would!
7 am wake up
and 10 minutes later hubs was out the door with his coffee and on his way to work.
Time for my first cup of coffee for the day
and I got the kiddos some milk and pop tarts since I heard them walking around!
Checking emails, and my blog, and work things
Started laundry
Made the bed, picked up around our bedroom and opened the blinds! I love the natural light in our room
and saw the kiddos playing together quietly
The 18 year old let Ollie out this morning, so I fed him and gave him some love
and then came back inside to unload the dishwasher
and put out meat for dinner
Then it was time to get dressed and ready for the day
Two smiling kids all ready to get in the car
and I put my make-up on, while the van warmed up, I look so excited lol
Two kids buckled up and ready
and a protein smoothie to fill my stomach until lunch
so at this point things got a little hectic. We pulled out of the driveway at 9:30 and on the main road our neighborhood is off of, I passed my husband in the car. Well, he was headed home for the day since some things went down at work and he was just too tired to deal with it, so he hopped into the car with some donuts and we went off on our errands
My favorites :) <3
Loaded in the buggy at Target
and first stop is coffee and chocolate milk
Once we got back home I let Ollie back outside
and realized I had not done a outfit picture, just a gray pair of jeans and my Mama bear shirt
with my black converse that I absolutely love!
Cup of coffee for this momma with my new mug
and a random assortment of things that we picked up at Target including a birthday present for one of our best friends!
I noticed the pup was laying in the sun
and this little girl had pulled out all of the puzzles
this little boy loves to play with bouncy balls, so he was grabbing them while I was making my way to my room
to tackle the growing pile of laundry
These two are so good and play together so well, I just love that they have a good relationship with each other.
While the kids were playing I could hear the elephant having some trouble and knew it was time to change the batteries, so with the elephant and screwdriver in hand we made our way down for lunch.
Riley is in that phase where all he will eat right now is peanut butter sandwiches, so lunch was that and some goldfish and the last of the strawberries!
Cuddles with mama's boy after lunch
and then these two helped clean up and went down for naps
during naps I will read, or answer emails or in this case hubby was home so we got to hang out and talk since we don't often see each other that much. Then he went downstairs to work on his homework
and I packed snack bags for the kiddos
and grabbed myself a quick lunch
before it was back in the car for carpool time
We had to pick up both girls this afternoon, so it was a fun filled afternoon in the van.
Luckily we got home in just enough time to run some steam off
and play with some chalk
and momma got to pour herself some wine
and prepare dinner, which was taco spaghetti tonight.
#blessed
We colored a little bit after dinner
and then hopped into the bathtub and got all squeaky clean and In pjs
and this little boy wanted some time with daddy
and was actually mad when I put him in bed. Luckily he didn't cry for longer than a minute and was asleep before long
so I headed downstairs to put dinner away and load the dishwasher up and run it again.
Scott and I took some time to play our game tonight, we play the playstation together and it was a lot of fun this night. We stayed up entirely too late, but I consider nights like this our date nights bemuses we take time to just hang out and be together!
Set the alarm for in the morning so we could get our Friday underway and then lights out at 11!
So that was a Thursday in our life. Luckily I don't have to pick the girls up everyday it just so happens that in this season of life they are both doing an activity that requires me to be in the same place at the same time haha. That will change in a couple of weeks when the 13 year old stops her activity after the completion.
Thanks for coming along! Check back soon :)
