Day 58

Happy Thursday!

Friday is almost here.  This week has just zoomed on by.  We started out taking Joel to camp today.  I am sad that tomorrow is his last day, but he has enjoyed it SO much and I am so thankful for the 9-4 break I have had.  I love my kiddos, but sometimes when they get a break from me, I am a better mommy for it.  Connor has had some much needed one on one time and I have been able to play with him, go shopping, and snuggle with him in a fight-free environment....happy moments!

So Connor and I headed upstairs to play this afternoon and he had me looking for some of his pirate toys in my room.  Well, I moved a laundry basket and the tiniest lizard ran out from under it and under my bed!  NOT a happy moment, but Connor and I did have a fun adventure with flashlights trying to find the darn thing.  We did find it at one point, but it was so quick we couldn't find it again!  So help me, if there is a lizard crawling on my at night, I am going to LOSE it!  So happy moment for all of you out there thinking of me screaming my head off at one in the morning because a lizard found a warm spot to hide...my mouth (just picturing that makes me want to scream lol).

Connor and I tried a new grocery store today and we LOVED it!  This place has it all!  They have a salad bar, sandwiches, pizza, coffee store, and bakery all in one area.  The rest of the store is really nice with lots of organic foods!  They also WALKED me out of the store and unloaded the groceries into my car!  By the time I got Connor in the car and buckled, the girl was done loading and off she went with my cart....they do it every time!  How I wish I would have had that service when I had my broken arm!  I used to ask for help on my bad days, but I always felt bad putting someone out by asking for help...this is just part of the job so it isn't anything extra!

So I was SO beat from the day of unpacking more and putting away, we went out to eat tonight.  It was a nice Mexican restaurant on the other side of town and we all enjoyed trying the new place.  The neat thing was the dessert that was a sizzling hot brownie with some vanilla icing/glaze poured over that boiled and bubbled on the hot plate and then vanilla ice cream on top!  The boys loved digging in and trying it.

Well, sleepy time is here so I had better head upstairs and get ready for bed.  I hope everyone has a great Friday and a fun weekend!  We found a babysitter and are going OUT for the night on Saturday night!  We are so excited!  Take care all and have a wonderful evening!
