Wacky Wednesday

This was my Wednesday today:

6:45am:  Awoke to Bri saying, "Mommy, I ready!"  Wow, she actually stayed in her bed all night for the second night in a row.  The "special treat" we told them they'd get if they stayed in their beds all night for 5 nights must be working!

7:15am:  Preheated oven for egg bake, planned to put it in oven at 7:45 in order to be ready in time for MOMS group.  Got in shower, got ready, feeling pretty on-time this morning.

7:59am:  Oh no, I forgot to put the egg bake in.  Oh well, I'm usually a few minutes late to MOMS group anyway, I'll just turn the oven up a few degrees.

8:15am:  Made pancakes for the girls and one for me.  Still feeling pretty on-time today. 

8:50am:  I should be leaving now but I'm running around the house trying to get everything ready.  For some reason I always forget to allow time for those last-minute things like:  do the girls' hair, get their shoes on, pack the diaper bag with sippy cups, make sure they go potty one last time, etc.  I see that there's jelly on Emily's dress and try to do a "spit bath" on it.  Doesn't work, oh well, at least the dress is pink. 

9:01am:  Pull out of driveway.  Supposed to be at MOMS at 9:00;  oh well, at least it's close by.

9:06am:  Arrive at MOMS group.  Tote in 2 girls, diaper bag, purse, roster, egg bake, coffeecake, and banana bread.  Help set up for the morning, sign in the many new ladies we had, eat a hot breakfast, laugh, almost cry, get to know many new moms, laugh some more, chat with old friends, pick up my girls, help clean up, feed the girls coffeecake and fruit for lunch.

12:05pm:  Load the girls into the van, see that their faces are covered in coffeecake crumbs.  Luckily find two wipes in my diaper bag, pass them back to clean their own faces. 

12:10pm:  Arrive at preschool, take Emily to her room, wait a bit and then take Bri to her room.

12:30pm:  Drive across the road to Target to kill time before my haircut at 1:00.  Decide I needed a break more and sat in the van to organize coupons.

1:00pm:  Haircut

1:50pm:  Quick stop at Rainbow for groceries.  Hey, gotta hit double coupon day!

2:30pm:  Picked Bri up at preschool. 

2:45pm:  Picked Emily up at preschool.

3:00pm:  Laid with Bri to get her down for a quick nap before swimming lessons.  Pondered, What if I fall asleep too and we miss lessons?  Better get up before I do. 

3:15pm:  Phone calls, emails, . . .

4:00pm:  Woke up Bri, got the girls into their swim suits.

4:30pm:  Swimming lessons at the Y.

5:30pm:  Breakfast dinner -- french toast, bacon, applesauce.  Wait, that makes 3 breakfast meals for us today.  Anything wrong with that?

Ok, that's enough.  It's 10:00pm and I'm going to bed!
