So, here's what a stay-at-home mom does. I got up at 5:45am in order to get my kids up, fed, dressed, and on the bus at 6:30. I caught an half-hour of the Today Show and then went to the garage to run on the treadmill for 30 mins. Got Rex dressed and ready for the day, plopped him in front of ETV and took a shower.
Picked the kids up at school at 9:30 for a dentist appointment- Kennedy was at PE and no one in the school office wanted to walk out on the field to get her and I "wasn't allowed" to. We got to the dentist and that went well. My pediatrician recommended a pediatric dentist for the kids and she was wonderful- Dr. Winnie for you here in MB. NO CAVITIES!!! Took the kids to Mc Donald's for lunch since they both missed it at school and then checked them back in at school.
Put Rex down for a nap, did some laundry, and cleaned bathrooms. Met the kids at the bus stop at 3:00pm. Then it was homework and chores. Oh, is Brayden a pain when it comes to chores. No amount of bargaining, threatening, or bribing gets it done any easier for him. Picking up the playroom, a 10 min job, can take days!
Then off to football practice. We brought the dog with us because Kennedy insisted she wanted to play with him at the park. Yeah right! I took Rupert for a swim in the pond (he was one happy doggy) and Kennedy watched Rex during practice.
Then its home by 7:15. Dinner, luckily we had leftover pot pie, baths, and bed by 8:00pm.
At last I could snuggle with Donald on the couch, crochet a little, and enjoy the series premiere of "The Office".
