1. Blogging has once again gotten the best of me. Hopefully now that I am officially on Summer Break with Brenna, I will be a better blogger. I can only promise to try!
2. Yesterday was our first official day. I am going to try to do a "photo a day" of our summer together. We'll see how that goes.
3. Our day yesterday was suppose to look like this:
~Mommy gets up and walks Bailey and herself (exercise is good for you right? sure)
~Brenna gets up, has breakfast, gets dressed, plays while Mommy does dishes,
vacuums, showers.
~Story time at the library
~Lunch, nap, and afternoon playtime (inside because of course it was 9000 degrees)
4. Our day yesterday looked like this instead.
~Mommy gets up and walks Bailey and herself (exercise is good for you right? sure)
~Brenna gets up, has breakfast, gets dressed, plays while Mommy does dishes,
vacuums *oh wait, the vacuum won't suck...that is a problem when there is a whole 2nd dog's worth of dog hair on the floor and I just vacuumed 2 days ago!* and showers.
~Uncle George stops by to visit and picks up a stool that he needs for his apartment. Brenna loved this visit...running to him with arms out saying "unca grge", dragging him into her playroom to show him her toys.
~He leaves, mommy goes out to let Bailey out and start the car so it will cool off slightly from the 9,000 degree weather before we go to the library for story hour. *Garage door won't go up...car with car seat (and extra car seat) in said garage.*
~Call grandpa because he is luckily at home on summer break too...comes up to help save the day (he and action door man who fixed the broken spring and adjusted our apparently swinging garage door so that it is no longer a swinging garage door). Daddy is unlucky in that he doesn't get to have summer vacation all summer long like Brenna and I, and was stuck in the office with a tightly packed schedule.
~Brenna naps early, wakes up, has lunch of pbj, pretzels, banana with mommy and grandpa
~While waiting for action door man, Brenna stays and plays with grandpa while mommy goes and gets parts for the vacuum (belt - hasn't been changed since we got the vacuum 7 years ago, that's right 7 years, and filters) man at store says he can't believe it lasted 7 years...well believe it because it did. Return home, take vacuum apart, attach new parts, put vacuum back together, start it up....WORKS LIKE BRAND NEW! woohoo...fixed something on my own!
~go to Target just to get out of the house after feeling slightly trapped after having only carseated car stuck in garage.
~played with playdough purchased at Target with only 2 or 3 instances of attempted playdough eating.
5. While this was not the way our day was suppose to go and things happened that were definitely not part of the summer plans, we still managed to make the best of it.
6. Friday we took B to have her first ice cream of the summer. Her very own child size portion in a dish with a spoon...she had a little ice cream moustache but didn't make much of a mess and didn't seem to get brain freeze either which was impressive since some of the bites she took were huge!
7. Munchkin is up so apparently this is going to be a Tuesday 7 spot with no pictures.....I'll be back sometime soon to finish and upload some photos!
