Jon had to go out today to get a new hose for the back of the dryer. It had popped of while we were on vacation, and it looked like a wolverine had chewed on it. It wasn't snowing when he left, but it was "squalling" (insert eye roll here) when he got home. He's an awesome husband though, he brought us home coffee from Duncan Donuts. I'm almost sad he's fixing the dryer. I had a legitimate reason I couldn't do laundry. I don't think that's ever happened. *sigh* All good things, must come to an end.
The older kids went back to school today. Of course there had to be drama with Julie about what she wanted to wear. Let me give you a little background information here, so this "drama" makes sense. The bear she has had since she was almost two, got left in the hotel room. So, she's been a bit emotional since then. I ordered a new one, similar off Amazon on the way home and it got here yesterday. She said he would do perfectly, but yet there is still underlying drama. I also ordered her an American Girl doll before we left on vacation. She has a Doll and Me tea party to support her ballet school this coming Saturday. All she had were baby dolls. When I ordered this doll I ordered the doll and her matching dresses to wear to this tea party. That's where the drama came from this morning. She wanted to wear a dress to school. I'm pretty sure she wanted to wear the dress that was bought for Saturday. After Saturday I don't care if she wears it to school, but I don't want to try and get ketchup and marker out of it, so she can look decent for Saturday. So I helped her pick out a skirt, matching shirt, and tights. It took about 15 minutes for her to stop pouting and be okay with it. Gah, girls!!! I love my girls, but the emotional drama that goes along with a developing 8 year old I could totally do without.
Tyler went and did the treadmill at Grammies for 40 minutes yesterday. He acted tired. I would not be surprised if he was considering on Sunday they spent from 10am-5pm in the water park there. He's sticking with eating healthy and is staying consistent with exercise. He starts soccer this Sunday. I bet by summer he'll be where he wants to be with his weight with little effort.
I'm hoping to be where I want to be too, by bathing suit season. Considering to this water park I had to wear my maternity swim suit. I do NOT, want to talk about it. It was mostly because I'm still nursing and my other bathing suit tops made me look like a stripper.
So I put off food shopping for another day for the snow "squalls". Stay in where it's warm and enjoy the peace and quiet while Kaylee naps. Pick up, clean up, do laundry and try and make it look like we live here again. Bust out some school so this weekend when I have other things to do, I won't be all stressed out with school hanging over my head. Yet another busy day in the life of the Moses Family.
