Uncle Andy

Rocks! He's watching the girls tonight! Peace out!!!

Friday

Friday's are Fun - no matter what!  That's a given...and sort of a rule.  So today was fun due to the fact that it was Friday!!!  We had the girls get their MMR vaccine today.  Since they're starting daycare...they'll need to be on a vaccine schedule now.  They were troopers about getting the shot and even scored some M&M mini's after :) 

I'm still having panic attacks about them starting daycare.  I keep thinking of every horrible scene possible and then replaying it in my head.  I can't even imagine the 1st time they come home and say 'stupid' or some other thing they pick up from *other* children.  Because you know...my kids are perfect.  Ahhhh...

I don't even want to start thinking about when they'll have to take the bus to school....

Changes

Today was another good day.  We have decided to put the girls in daycare.  We applied for daycare assistance and with that and a prayer hopefully we can afford it.  The girls are a lot for Grandma to handle everyday and they are super smart that we think they would benefit alot from being "in school".  If all goes smooth they will start in 2 weeks.  We'll keep you posted.

Sleeping

Yes the girls have been sleeping through the night.  They have also been waking up at 6am instead of 5:30am this is so nice.  We'll take it because I know it wont last long. 
Well I fixed my car this morning before work turned out I was right the battery was bad.  Just what I want to do at 7am work on my car but it was easy and I can't complain the car has been good to me.  Busy day at work so I only had time to check in on the girls for a quick minute.  They had a good day and got to play in the pool, they love the water.  Michelle had to go help finish the roof tonight so I made sure dinner was ready when they got home so we could eat and give the girls a bath.  Michelle and Joey got home at 9:30 tonight and the roof is done.  Finally.

What a day

The girls slept all night and we had the usual morning.  Got them up and dressed and off to Grandma's.  When daddy got in his car to go to work his car sounded a little funny when it started, but it started so no problem.  I (Pete) decided to go home at lunch time and again when I started the car it sounded funny but it started so no problem.  When I got in my car to go back to work it didn't want to start.  Now we have a problem.  After trying to start it and a look under the hood I concluded that the battery died.  I called work told them the car wouldn't start and that I wasn't coming back today.  Michelle left work a little early and came to get me so I could take the battery to Sears, where I bought it, to have it checked.  Then we picked the girls up and went home.  I played with them while Michelle cooked dinner.  After the girls went to bed Michelle headed to her mom's house to help Joey with the roof, again.

Just another manic Monday

Girls were tired for sure they slept 5:30pm - 6am without one peep.  We all slept good but after rockin' this weekend this Monday morning was tough.  Really glad Donna comes over on Monday mornings she is a great help.  When Grandma got here we went to work and the two of them made breakfast for the girls.  When we got home from work we filled the pool and the girls had a good time splashing mommy.  An ant found its way onto Hannah's leg and she screamed like I've never heard her before.  Poor kid she is so sensitive.

7/25/10

The concert was great last night!  We had a ton of fun and we even slept in - till 7:30!  Lol.  We were 2 hours away and we needed to get up, eat, shower and leave so we could get back and do a quick run to the store for groceries for the week before we picked up the kids.  When we did pick up the kids it turned out to be miserable.  They were tired because they hadn't napped (if I had any incling that they were ready to ditch their naps - today was a reminder that they're SO NOT READY). 

They whined and cried and whined some more.  I took them to the pool with Joey and Andy - and they were good for a while but as soon as we headed home - they whined and cried more.  Finally I decided to just feed them dinner and put them to bed.  They were in bed by 5:30 and sleeping by 5:31.  LOL

I hate the start of the week especially when we haven't had time to prepare.  Since we took a break and went away for the night...no laundry got done, no cleaning got done, no sheets were changed, only the bare shopping got done, no clothes are ready and the girls bags are not packed.  But it was worth the break!  Gonna be a rough week though. 

The girls must have had fun sleeping over Grandma's with Titi because as I was saying good night to them Emily said 'I go to Amma's house.'  Not a question but a statement.
