Crabby

I was sooooo crabby this morning for some silly reason. I look back on this morning on such a waste of energy.

Look at this face - what was I thinking being crabby?!?

J had a horrible night. I got up at 4:30 to make Daddy's lunch for the day. Then I was set to hit the hay for another hour or two and S woke up crying. So that set the wheels in motion for L to wake up too. I made them stay in their beds until 7 though. I took advantage of the time awake to practice my decorating skills from last night. So at 6 this morning, I was decorating cupcakes and cakes :- )

We spent some time painting rocks per L's suggestion. This was fun!!After the morning was a wash, we took off to get a couple of things from Target and then visit Chik-Fil-A with a good friend and her 2 boys. This turned into a refreshing time. The kids had fun playing and I had some nice conversation as well!


L was reading J a book before I took off for the cake class last night. She is an amazing big sister to both S and J.
Tonight I had wanted to have a relaxing (read:ALONE) bath time and that was interrupted and I decided to relax and enjoy the time with S while he drove his cars along the bath. He is such a fun, thoughtful little boy. Today he made it through his nap without wearing a pull-up and woke up dry!!!

So the day ended in a much more happier mommy than it started out with : -)

p.s. In the bath tonight, we were talking about Grandma Piper having surgey next week. She is having her kidney removed due to a tumor. Here's the conversation:

Mom: "Grandma Piper is having surgery next week to remove her kidney"
L: "Why?"
M: "Because it doesn't work"
L: "What are they going to with it?"
Mom: "They are going to put it in the trash."
S: "Then the trash truck will take it away?
M: "Yep"
L: "Maybe they could recycle it?
M: "Uh-no, I don't think so!"

Recyling and reusing is a daily lesson around here. Guess it's sinking in!!
