Playin’ Hookey…

Right now I am supposed to be at one of the Fall Festival Meetings that I have spoke of recently. It seems things are all catching up with me as I am so exhausted this afternoon.I had a very interesting morning filled with little surprises from my Toby. Let’s just say he took off his diaper twice this morning and then did his thing. After wrangling the kids to get ready, and Toby to keep his clothes on, I went to Ty’s school to assist making Challah bread with 8 classes of kids ranging from 2 to 4 years old…. Ahhh…. hot and tiring, as I was the one to supervise the oven. They came out great, the kids had fun, Ty was ecstatic to see his mum, and my help was greatly appreciated as very few other parents volunteered.

After school, my friend and I took the kids to Johnny Rockets for lunch. Ty was so wound up he was literally jumping on the seats while Toby was eating a crayon. Precious kids, I tell you. By the time I got home it was late in the afternoon and the boys went down for a nap. I had full intentions of getting a few things done, but heard Toby crying and woke up in a pile of laundry I was apparently folding before I passed out , so I lost that opportunity today. Such is life sometimes… Ty kept on sleeping and I didn’t even walk to get A because I didn’t want to wake him up. Then it was almost time for us to leave to go to the meeting at A’s school and Ty was still not up so I called in sick. Bad volunteer, boogiemum, bad!

Do you know the Muffin Man?

Today was an exceptionally boring day. Boring is good sometimes, but too much of it gets to me. I spent the morning chasing the kids and telling them to “get off the table… “(Ty and Toby) and “don’t download software to my computer” (Toby)..” and “stop trying to use your father’s cigarette lighter” (Ty). So by the time John got up, which was almost the boys nap time, I had had it. I would of taken them out sooner to play and such but wanted a shower terribly this morning and missed the opportunity before the boys got up, can’t leave them alone for 5 minutes as you might imagine, and didn’t want to take them in the shower and have to have another discussion with Ty about Mummy’s body parts. So thus was our morning…During nap I baked 3 batches of apricot muffins and caught up on Supernanny. I cried my eyes out when I heard the little boy with Autism say his first words….After nap I ran an errand and then took the boys across the street to play with the neighbors. We attempted a walk but the boys decided half way down the street this was not for them and they much rather whine and fight over bikes, so back to home we went. I struggled to make dinner while the boys watched the “donkey moomie” aka Shrek and after dinner had our usual dancing to “b.y.o.b.” to get the extra energy out.

Now that they are in bed, my hubby is playing his lovely computer games and I got in a little online shopping . So, overall, not a terrible day, just nothing too interesting to blog about I say.

Oh, and Spice, I never meant to offend you. I didn’t even think the word catty through thoroughly. You are way cooler than these women are, so in a sense, that word would be entirely wrong. Might I use the word witch? Or are there any witches out there that are offended now? or witch with a b? any dogs offended out there? maybe I should just not say anything…
