It's been a super, ultra busy week. Today alone I:
3 kids up and dressed, fed
William on the bus
Amelia and Gemma to the store for last minute gifts/use a really good coupon
Amelia and Gemma to story time at the library*
Prepped gifts for: Ballet teacher, preschool teachers, bus driver, office staff, Gemma's day care provider, William's teacher, my classroom volunteers, and
Prepped game I was bringing for William's class party that afternoon (yes. I signed up to bring a game. At least I was smart enough not to sign up for coordinating the party, right?)
Packed lunches for Gemma and myself for Thursday.
Made lunch for Amelia, Gemma and myself
Ate lunch
Swept kitchen floor, clean up after lunch
Wrap gifts for babysitter, have Amelia and Gemma color cards for the people we were giving gifts to
Chat with my grandma on the phone
Give report to John
Leave for William's Christmas class party (hope to post a pic soon)
Run a game for William's class party. Drop off gifts to office staff and William's teacher.
Come home - John allows me a 15 minute "time out"
Work on dinner
Eat dinner
Whole family out the door for Amelia's ballet open house (hope to post a pic soon)
Back home again, help William with homework due tomorrow (no pics of this) while John gives the girls a bath
Kids to bed - painfully slow tonight.
Pack up trays of cookies to bring to work tomorrow for John, Kelly, Amelia to take to preschool, and Gemma to take to the babysitter.
Collapse on couch
*I was mentally congratulating myself about being on time and organized for the library** when I realized I didn't have my purse. I didn't have my purse because it was still in the van. In the van with the doors locked. The doors were locked and the keys were inside the van. That was not on the agenda today. Thankfully, I have a friend who didn't mind bailing me out so I didn't have to a) wait for John to be able to leave work or 2) walk with the girls home sans stroller.
**This coupled with Tuesday's events make me wonder if I am not responsible enough to have keys. On Monday, I ran errands, did library time with Gemma and took Gemma to her 1 year dr appointment. I came home and put my keys down somewhere. Tuesday morning, I needed to hit the road and drop kids off all over town when I found my keys were missing. The keys were missing for the better part of the day until John finally located them around dinner time.
