Manic Mondays are when I let you know what plans I have for the week. Some weeks I may be very busy where other weeks there may not be any plans. I have also decided to do a quick recap of what we actually did versus what I thought we were going to do.
This Week
Monday-B has a dentist appointment in the morning. S’s friend is coming over after school. Otherwise we are just hanging out at home.
Tuesday-S has catechism and piano lessons in the evening. I am doing a painting class so B will be doing the run around with S.
Wednesday-P has storytime in the morning. I am hoping that I can get the kids Easter pics after school. It all depends on whether P’s chapped skin around her lips has gone away or not.
Thursday-We are celebrating my niece Little P’s birthday. We are going to eat out and have cake. The kids are excited to go.
Friday-There are no plans right now. We are just going to be hanging out at home. This is the last day of school for S; next week starts his spring break.
Saturday-We are going to try to go to Target and participate in the Hatchanimals Scavenger Egg Hunt. In the afternoon, we are going to Max’s 1st birthday. The kids and I love Baby Max.
Sunday-No plans for today, we are just hanging out at home.
Last Week Recap
Monday we didn’t do anything and just hung out at home.
Tuesday we hung out at home during the day. A and Baby L came over to play after school. The kids painted and were very good at playing together. No one was fighting over anything and they all painted the same picture together. S didn’t have catechism because of the retreat that we did on Saturday.
Wednesday we went to storytime in the morning. P was bugging me nonstop about when we were leaving for storytime. When we got to storytime she asked me the entire time asking me when we could go home. The rest of the day she just wanted to hang out at home.
Thursday we hung out at home. P painted her cupcake bank she got from her aunt. She loved coloring it and she thought it was beautiful.
Friday P got up super early. She ended up running errands with B while I took a “morning nap.” When they got home I drove P with me to the bank and she fell asleep to get a much needed nap. She slept for about an hour in the car. Usually she wakes up happy, but not today. She sat on my lap and whined for a good 45 minutes. I think she could have used a bit more sleep. S brought home his progress binder which is the new “grade card” for the 3rd quarter. He is well above where he should be in the year. The only thing he is struggling with is his spelling. Oh my gosh, he spells all kinds of things phonetically instead of correct. If I don’t know the word he is writing if all I have to do is sound it out. I can figure it out 99% of the time.
Saturday we went to a pancake breakfast first thing in the morning. The kids had fun and were excited to go out to eat pancakes. We ran to Target to get some necessities. I was tired because I went to bed late (really late, like 3ish) so I came home and took a nap. In the afternoon, we went over to see Grandma G and Grandpa Bob. The kids were so excited to see them. P could not help but smile the entire time we walked over there.
Sunday was a nice day so the kids played outside while B was working outside. I was folding laundry watching a new show Tin Star on Amazon Prime. B set up the trampoline and the kids got to spend the rest of the afternoon jumping. While they were jumping I went for a walk with May. S went to his friends to play for a while. P was totally bummed that she couldn’t go so we had to figure out a way to distract her. We ended up taking the gold sand from them breaking gold bars and tried to make new bars. She had fun making a mess.
Last Week
This is only two days late. I wonder if it will back date on the blog to Monday? Guess we will find out.
Monday-I had a doctor’s appointment in the afternoon otherwise we just hung out at home. B got only 2 hours of sleep last night so he came home and passed out at 8pm with the kids. I was asleep by 8:30pm.
Tuesday-S had a night off and there was no catechism because of the retreat we went to on Saturday. I watched A and Baby L after school for a few hours. The kids had fun playing and eating dinner together. S went to his piano lessons while the kids finished their dinner.
Wednesday-Today we had story time in the morning and then just hung out at home.
Thursday-Nothing is planned for today. P and I are hanging out at home. I may try to get the kids Easter pics done in the evening.
Friday-B is off today and we are just hanging out at home.
Saturday-We are going to a pancake breakfast in the morning for the local boy scouts. We have gone in years past and when it falls on St. Patty’s day they make green pancakes. I hope they do it again. The kids will love it. My sisters are doing a paint class in the evening. I haven’t decided if I am going to go or not. I think it is going to be a last minute decision.
Sunday-Not a whole lot going on, just was hanging around the house.
