Friday, June 25,2010

Already Friday. We haven't really done much this week. We went to the dentist and that is the only time and day we have gotten out of the house. Its horrible. The rain stopped us once. Sara is now running fever so I don't think we will be doing too much. Next week we do have to go to the library to return some books so hopefully there will be one day thats not too hot. Also have a repair guy coming out for the dishwasher for that recalled part and I have a dr's appointment. Katie's birthday is right around the corner and we need to get the ball rolling on that.

Today I had an email from Toddler Toddler and it gave me an idea to use for Katie to see on a detailed map where she lives. I have been trying to get her to remember her address. She has the house number, city and state which is really good but for her to see it would be so much better. Goggle maps are awesome. The satellite image shows the top of our house and she will be able to see how to get to school and relatives that live around us. Also the main road near our house she can walk on it by using the satellite image. Really cool and I do plan to use that today.

I guess its a good thing for some people. Hubby has to work Saturday so thats not that great. Good for the money but bad for the stuff that needs to be done around the house. Girls have gymnastics today. Its nice but sitting around for 2 hours smelling stinky feet isn't that great. Ever notice that the skating rink and gymnastics gym smell that way? The funny part about it is the gymnastics place use to sell candles. One good thing about hubby working Saturday it will give us time to get his shirt done for fathers day. I think we agreed on the shirt that says Daddy of 3 since he will be soon and I'll let the girls do their hands on the back. We will just have to add little ones hands when she comes out. Ok enough about me lets see some good stuff.

Today I am taking the girls to a class offered at the hospital to learn what they can and can not do to help when baby gets here. Sad but I have to save my energy for that or I will be in a lot of pain later. I almost started this off complaining about my husband who would rather wake up an hour earlier to go to the gym instead of sleeping and using his energy to put my house back together. You guys don't want to hear about that. Its eating at me soo bad. Anyway I found a couple of things and would like to share.

Today was a pretty good day. I washed 1 batch of clothes. Yep still have a huge pile to wash but at least I got 1 done. Made pizzas with the girls. We like to buy the pizza crust already made but its fun to put all the toppings on it and we really enjoy that type of pizza more then ordering out. I also did a project with the girls. I traced their feet on a piece of paper and cut out shoes from magazines for them to glue on their feets using a paint brush with some papermache glue made it more fun. Sara put every shoe she could fit on her paper and Katie stood inside the lines with hers.
