Woke up
Visited the ladies room (for the third time since I went to bed last night. What can I say, I'm pregnant.)
Changed a diaper
Stole some of Jim's cereal for breakfast (he hates that since, "Jim doesn't share food!" Just like Joey from Friends. It makes it that much more fun to steal things off his plate!)
Laughed with Jim as Tralee did her "new" animal sound -- elephant!
Said family prayers and kissed Jim goodbye
Fed Tralee and myself
Went to bathroom
Bathed Tralee and self
Checked blogs and e-mails
Counted things with Tralee
Colored with Tralee
Played with blocks, I'm sure you know who with
Played Starfall, yup with my daughter
Watched "Elmo" a.k.a. Sesame Street in between bathroom breaks
Checked facebook, blogs, and e-mails again
Changed another diaper
Took dog and Tralee for walk
Fed Tralee and self lunch
Had to pee again
Called Jim
Picked up almost all of pantry Tralee tore down, except for three cans of pumpkin puree Tralee likes to stack, and a few starbursts I didn't even know were in there.
Forced self to do dishes (my LEAST favorite chore. . . EVER)
Opened up a starburst for Tralee to eat (she ate a good lunch, she was entitled)
Picked up toys all over floor
Watched as toys instantaneously spread across floor AGAIN
Read books to Tralee
Took one can of pumpkin puree away from Tralee to bake pumpkin chocolate chip cookies -- SO GOOD!
Ate too many pumpkin chocolate chip cookies
Watched Tralee pull the bowl of Halloween candy down from shelf and spread it out all over floor.
Counted candy on kitchen floor with Tralee for a good half hour. The girl loves to count!
Talked to Jim
Had to go to bathroom. . . again
Checked blog and e-mails. . . again
Mapquested where to vote
Changed another diaper
Voted with Tralee in tow -- HOORAY!
Was sad I didn't get an "I Voted" sticker. . . seriously, did they run out? I was really excited about the sticker.
Talked to Jim again
Peed again
Called and talked to Mom about voting and other things
Yelled at dog for stealing a starburst from Tralee and eating it
Wondered what to make for dinner
Wondered some more
Decided to stop wondering and blog about day while eating another pumpkin cookie and sipping on a glass of 1% milk.
It was a pretty good day so far. . . now, off to the ladies room!
If I was there I would've ate ALL your cookies. I am the "cookie monster" after all. I miss you terribly.
ReplyDeleteYou're funny. Love the cookies....oh, yummo!
ReplyDeleteDoes Tralee nap anymore? My day sounds like your except calling husband less often, playing w/kids less often and checking emails/blogs more often. I'm a bad mom.
Thanks for sharing. It's fun to know how other mothers really play out their days.
seriously, leslie, we have to meet! i just need to take your blog and paste it into mine because you say exactly the same things that are going through my head...okay, wait..i just read hannah's comment. i think i'm more like her - more blogs and email, less kid time...i have a lot to learn from you, mrs. jacobs! and, by the way, i don't share food either.
ReplyDeleteI wish I would have played more with you when you guys were little. How come I was such a clean freak! And nutrition freak! Interesting! I think you are wonderful! We did read together, didn't we? You loved to read.
