Ember is 6 weeks old. I feel like I've gotten into a pretty good rhythm with the kids, but I'm still having a hard time with balancing some things. My mornings are spent getting the kids out the door and running them to their various places. After preschool pickup I rush to do lunch and get Dex down for a nap before I have to pick Asher up (although Dexty's nap days are quickly fading). I tutor about four evenings a week. Have you noticed what I am not doing? Cleaning. The few free moments I have I usually spend trying to keep myself awake since little Miss Emmy still isn't sleeping well at night.
When the weekend comes my first inclination is to spend it getting caught up on cleaning and laundry. I have come to realize that this season of life may not be the most organized for me. Going places with the kids and doing fun things with them is probably more important right now.
On Saturday Nate and I decided to ignore all the messes and we went to Virginia for the day. We haven't been to the zoo in a while and the kids had a lot of fun. Dex loves all the animals.
Cute didelyoot. Could conclusion to come to...leaving the mess behind and going on a Saturday outing. When the kids were growing up in ThAiland we had mystery monday S our outing day. Piper looks very much like a fairy on that butterfly...perhaps she could turn into a cleaning fairy like Cinderella before she was transformed. :-)
ReplyDeleteYaaaay for zoos

ReplyDeleteSo glad you got out for the day. If that cleaning fairy ever appears, send her my way when she's done at your house.
