All dressed up and stuck at home




It was the sisters ( Lily and Brookie ) sleep over this weekend and it has been packed.Lily came with a list of things she wanted to do. Friday night we had Kayden and Ryan so we went to the gym to go swimming ( check off the list) then to Gecko's for ice cream, scones and burritos ( in that order too) It was was busy night so it was no suprise that it was 10:45 pm before we ever got to bed. Then the sisters were up and going around 4:30 am. Obviously Mcdonalds is not open that early so we watched cartoons till 6:00am and headed over. Two hours at Mcdonalds ( check off the list) then we headed home. We cleaned the house, painted nails ( check off the list ), played with all the cushions off the couch ( check off the list ) and finally headed out to go shopping. We went to Smith so the girls could go to play land but Lily cried so I ended out staying out side the door for the whole hour. Then when I tried to move the cart around the store, it was almost crippling as it was too much for my finally mended knee. So we grab one jar of mayo and left. We then headed to the dollar store. The dollar store was easier as they left me to shop. Lily picked a flute, baton and a potted plant. Brookie picked a new purse, socks and notebook. When we got home Ambree and Hunter were here and although we wanted to go to a movie, we ended up going out to dinner. Then home to bed about 8:30 and painted our toe nails ( check off the list )Less than one movie later, they were asleep. Only up twice during the night, once for a drink and another time with a bad dream. Then up agian at 5:30 this morning. I was up cleaning but turned on cartoons for them. When they finally came down , we gave Frodo a bath ( check off the list ) had breakfast, pancakes for Lily and eggs for Brookies. Then they played while I worked on dinner. I thought I had planned it right and put them and their dolls in the bathtub while I finished off. I get one out of the tub and do her hair then turn on the TV. Another one out of the tub, do her hair and instruct them to both watch TV while I get ready for church. I am running a bit behind so I send Rob ahead to save seats. I get ready in record time ( 1/2 hour) and when I come out of the bathroom ready to put the final touches and leave --HELLO- they are both sound asleep in the bed. No one is going to wake them up and dog gone it, I wore them out so I am not going to let them sleep for their parents. So I am here alone and the girls are asleep-- hey wait I am not quit along as Cameron is here looking for his coat and he gets to see way more than his coat. Serves him right for being so quiet. I am loving it.
