Week End

It was a nice weekend.

Friday night dinner with a girl friend and then an evening alone to watch "Sex in the City" (a little long, but fun to watch). Sweetheart #1 was at the game.

Saturday was laundry day and it felt good to get IT DONE! (Spent 6 hours on Friday cleaning out Sweetheart #3 & #4's closet...they have a lot of clothes!!!

Sunday was a morning with church and then lunch with Uncle John. Kids in bed by 7 (I feel asleep from 7-7:30) and now have my second wind. However, my goal is to be in bed by 10PM and get a GOOD NIGHT'S sleep.

A new week begins........

Bedtime

Bedtime---it's bittersweet. I'm always happy when the Sweethearts go down fairly easy (usually all by 8PM), however I'm a little lonely sitting here by myself. I miss the three little ones because last night we had Sweetheart #2's Kindergarten Open House and we didn't get any time with the girls. Tonight they're exhausted and were in bed by 7:30. Tomorrow is my Friday, so tomorrow night won't be so rushed.

Sunday, Sunday

Okay, blogging is a little bit harder than I thought! (I think I'm going to be able to post and then something comes up and the time gets away from me). I may have to make it a weekly blog with what's been happing with the Sweethearts...we'll see. This week's been kind of CRAZY!

Exciting times this week:

• Thankgoodness the water in our basement was only a trickle. We were able to contain it with towels and nothing was lost. Others in our neighborhood weren't so lucky...I felt so bad for them.

• Sweetheart #1 had a good time at the Baseball Commissioners meeting. I'm proud of him for going out and doing something new; however Baseball is old hat to him!

• We had a great time with the S******'s on Friday night. This place is starting to feel like home.

• Sweethearts 3 & 4 had their first experience at American Girl Place and it was way FUN! I was skeptical at first, but it was really nice and so cute! Even at 6 months they came home exhausted. I'm sure we'll be back and only hope that maybe our little niece can join us!

• Family was in this weekend and it was really nice. We had a Great Aunt and a 3rd cousin as newcomers to our house and it was memoriable. I'm glad they came.

• Sweetheart 2 played soccer and enjoyed it the whole time.

• I'm stressed out over things at work, however posting to this blog seems to help. The even better part is that Sweetheart #1 has been so helpful with the kids today and has supported me working in the downstairs office. God bless him.
