Catching Up

Ah yes, it has been FOR-EV-ER since I've written. Sorry to leave you all out in the dust. I'm not really sure if there is much to catch up on so I'll just start where we are...

Today we drove to OC to visit grandma (and sell her things). Yes, Hattie's school has started their annual fundraiser! (Email me if you'd like to buy something, I'll send you a link!) So we bombarded grandma's office and forced everyone to buy cookie dough (and even some Mary Kay!). Who can resist cookie dough (certainly not grandma's office, ha ha!!), and then we made grandma take us to lunch. We are very sneaky like that. It was a very nice and exhausting day for us.

When we got home, Jason wanted to take a bath (??? don't ask, I have no idea - I think it may be because he was wearing that Spiderman costume all day and it tends to be SWEATY!) SO all the kids got into mom's bathtub. Actually the boys got in while Hattie was homeworking (Hooray for the new system of doing homework in her room at her desk!) and then Breanna decided she'd dive in head first before mom could remove her clothing. Fun times. When Hattie finished her work, she joined the rest of them in the tub until mom couldn't stand the splashing and screaming any longer. So they didn't get cleaned per say, they mearly got rinsed. Still better than nothing.

Tonight Daddy will be home late because he has a side job (hooray!) putting in a ceiling fan. Bummer for us, but nice because we can always use the money. Just gotta figure out what to make for dinner... Any suggestions? Top Ramen anyone?? Just kidding. Rick hates Top Ramen (even though the kids LOVE it.) Usually we save it for babysitter nights...

I hate driving into OC because the children miss their naps. Naptime is sacred in this house. You might notice I USUALLY get my blogging done around that time. Not lately. However, although it isn't currently naptime, it IS TV time which is almost just as good. Almost. At least all of the children are being quiet. :-)
