Blah

Another week gone. It's been a blah week, nothing real exciting, nothing real fun....which I guess should be good but I can't say the stress isn't there.
Steve is very busy at work, very stressed and I think it is catching up to him. So Tuesday he took a guys night and went and drinks with a friend. Good, he needed it. I was pretty proud of myself this night. I picked up both girls, got home about 5:30, made my typical waffles (with the waffle maker, give me a little credit!) and had them eating by 6. I did the dishes, gave them baths, got them both to sleep by 8:30 and picked up the house and relaxed by 9! :)

I actually walked on the treadmill both Monday and Wednesday nights. When it is 8:30 and both girls are in bed, I really don't have good excuse NOT to! And it is a good stress reliever!

Thursday, Presley had an early out day though she still went to KTC. And little did we know, they got to go to a movie! We had no idea and still question the validity of P's story! But they had an in service day today so again, she went to KTC all day. I don't normally feel bad or guilty about being a working mom, but I felt bad for her having to go to daycare when it seemed most kids were at home with a parent. So lesson learned and I will have to plan ahead and start taking off some of these days so we can spend some time together!.....and today they went bowling! Wouldn't you think we would get a schedule or information about these things? I'm sure we are probably missing information somewhere!

Today was my late night, I took Piper to GN at 7:15, I headed to the grocery store, took that stuff home and then headed to work. I worked until about 6:15, I got home in time for Steve to go meet Jerry out for a couple drinks (and then P decided she was going to be a brat. She was TERRIBLE for the first 45 minutes I was home......I was almost hoping I could just go back to work, where it was quiet and I didn't have yelling and whining all around me!) So the girls got a bath when I got home, I got them both to sleep by 8:45. I've picked up the house and now relaxing!

On the up side: Presley had a great week at dropoff! Finally! There were bribes with gummy bears and a pair of slippers, but she did it! So we'll take it!

Piper on the other hand, loves going to GN. She might give me a hug goodbye, but then she just goes on her merry way with her teacher Heather. AND the fun part....she now runs from me when I pick her up. She hides in the corner and I had to carry her out kicking and screaming! I mean really? Let's talk about two different ends of the spectrum with these kids!

We went out to dinner last night and a couple sat down near us. Piper stood up in her chair, looked at them and said "Hiiii!". They thought she was cute at first....then she started babbling some story to them and I'm sure they were not impressed! HA! But man, that girl is freakin cute!
