It’s my Friday today. LO has a color run at school tomorrow and E and I are going to throw some color at him.
I have a ton of work to do. Before I left yesterday my manager sent me a ton of things that I was to do today.

Storming here too! It was hard to get out of bed today, especially because my early risers (C and L) spent the night at their grandparents house last night.

Morning. I’m waiting for my gallbladder ultrasound. I haven’t had any pain since Sunday so who knows what will show.
After two rainy days, the sun is supposed to come out today so I plan on taking the kids to the zoo. Then girls night tonight which I need. Dh has been gone most of the week so I need a little me time.
Did I ever update on the camper vs pontoon decision? Well we decided on camper and dh brought it home last night. We are going to do a trial run in town on Sunday night to figure out everything we will need. Then we have a couple other weekends booked this summer. The kids are so excited.

Storming here too! It was hard to get out of bed today, especially because my early risers (C and L) spent the night at their grandparents house last night. I'm still not out of bed. I got up and made the boys breakfast. Then the thunder started so they are both in my bed. Along with the dogs.. I'm also doing my first grocery delivery today. I wanted to try it before baby is here so if I'm in a pinch and can't/don't want to leave, I can still get groceries. And they had a special, spend $75 and get free delivery. Easy to do that lol.

peachsmama I love the grocery delivery service. We don’t have a car so I use it when we need to stock up or have parties/gatherings, soooo handy!

Morning glories. It's supposed to be warm and beautiful today. I wish it was switched with tomorrow though because we might have rain then. Going to try to be in best mode at work because I have a lot to do. Then I have my belt test in the evening. It's going to be a long day.

I’m doing iq tests today, this particular test is not my favourite. It is long and boring and tells me more about how well they have been taught and how good their Dutch is than their actual iq... but hey, boss’ orders 🙄. Pancakes on the menu for the kids today, my nephew is coming over for it and ds is stoked!

H was up from 12:30-2 and then again at 3. Of course MH goes in at 3 and stays less than 5 min. He told me I was giving in too much and H was taking advantage of me. I told him since he's so good at the MOTN wake ups, he can handle them from now on.

Last day of school uniforms. My child is ecstatic!
Also had to throw away another pair of ripped leggings yesterday. Girl was running in from the playground and ate it. She's lucky she didn't scrape up her face. Her knee looks a mess and her opposite elbow is all scraped up too. I asked her what lesson she learned from it. She said, "to not do it anymore" "do what?" "I don't know" "Don't run, Cadence. You know the rule is that you aren't supposed to run when you're lining up to go inside." "I don't know the rules at this school!" ...she's only been going there her entire life and this is not a new rule.

Great decision slenle with the RV! How fun! I've been overloading myself with RV details because we're getting one, either this summer or next for sure, so tell me about yours, 5th wheel? bunk beds? slide outs?

C rips the knees of every pant. I am no longer throwing them out and he can wear them to school. He just gets dirty there so why bother. He rips knees like twice a week!

There is an email circulating among the partners that will likely mean that this summer we get to leave at noon on Fridays as a way to boost morale. I'm all for it so long as there isn't a pay cut involved.

It's a good thing I'm having a girl, I couldn't pass down the boys clothes to one more kid. Jack's are rough! Most of his knees are thin or ripped.

Cassidy's preschool is filled with K-sounding names. Her poor teachers trying to keep that straight. But the Kardashians could use it for inspiration if they ever wanted to go back to K names (lol, I know that's too simple for them now).

Hi, good morning! B doesnt have school on Thursdays so I dont have to pack a snack for him AND it was hot lunch day at daycare. So basically, I feel like I've been winning today since 7.30pm yesterday when I didnt have to pack lunches.

vino, am I the only one who doesn't mind packing lunches (at least for C)? Maybe I pack shitty lunches, but they come together so fast! I do hate packing my own lunch though.

I have to pack 2 snacks and lunch for both kids. Currently, the school district we're in has a grant for free breakfast and lunches for all students. I am keeping everything crossed that they get this grant again so I will only have to feed M dinner during the week.

vino , am I the only one who doesn't mind packing lunches (at least for C)? Maybe I pack shitty lunches, but they come together so fast! I do hate packing my own lunch though. I feel like I pack a lot of bags and food on a daily basis so any relief is welcome. I pack: -a lunch kit for B that has a snack in it for kinder, that includes a cut apple/pear that i do in the morning, gets packed in his school backpack -a lunch kit for B that stays at daycare, that needs an icepack cause no fridge -a small breakfast for B - usually blueberry bread toasted fresh in the morning -a small breakfast for J, usually a yogurt, blueberry muffin/toasted waffle and an assortment of dry cereal -a lunch kit for J, no ice pack cause their room has a fridge If the kids are having a sandwich day, i make them in the morning. I send both kids with fresh water and ice in their water bottle for the day, most parents just leave the water bottles there for the week but, ew no. MH packs his own lunch daily that is usually left overs. I bring a massive bag of prepped food on Mondays for work and just take over a crisper in one of the fridges. I feel like a lot of my life revolves around food...

Hi guys, my phone keeps freezing on Chrome and I can't open the site easily (never located my pw for tapa). Anywho, j had his graduation yes and it was adorable. He was so proud of himself and then we went to a nice dinner out - shockingly he didn't pick 5 guys, and then froyo. Lots of school work to get done tonight, my mom is staying the night, and tomor we have k orientation mid morning and then heading to the beach at some point tomorrow or tomorrow night. I feel like the stupid person on my team project.. one person is a full time student, so I guess she has time on her hands, meanwhile this class is basically an after thought for me.
