What Is a Mommy To Do?

It was a rainy day today!! And although I wish I could say my fun & creative Mommy juices were really flowing today...they weren't! Instead my Oh my goodness this messy "well-lived-in-house" is driving me crazy juices were flowing! 

So this is how our morning went. While I was trying to clean I had a very helpful 9 year old Who that was helping me clean while a wired/wanting to go outside 3 year old Who was getting stir crazy & a walk around with my arms in the air crying 1 year old Who  was following me around wanting his Mommy! So I cleaned & folded clothes then finally got Who Easton down for his morning nap. Then Who Tanner & I went into his TrAiN wReCk of a room and played a game to get it cleaned and luckily it worked! Although next time I think I might really try some SuperHero socks & cape or maybe a Ninja Turtle suit to help us get some motivation to tackle his mess! We shall see...

Well after lunch and a failed attempt to watch a movie I decided we needed to get out of the house (I needed to get out of the house). What better place for me to go to relieve some stress & get some items to finally start on my to do list for my classroom but....Hobby Lobby. Perfect! ! This would give us at least 45 minutes to nap (no, not me obviously). And YES, all of my little Whos took a nap on the way & woke up refreshed and ready to go to Mommy's favorite place! I know, maybe I should've taken them to the library or a fun indoor place for kids...but Hobby Lobby just sounded much more satisfying today. Besides we had driven by Hobby Lobby yesterday after bowling and it was calling my name...loudly!!

So now I am hoping to use some of the upcoming naptimes to check things off of my classroom to do list (one of those unattained "summmer resolutions"). Wish me luck!!
