I started today feeling a little overwhelmed and a little daunted by the day ahead. I love hanging out with the boys and there has been so much goodness in all of our time together. But also, I really miss our regular life. I miss my office and normal work. I miss daycare and the boys having their own lives outside of our house. I am sick of the nonstop dishes from 3 meals a day, and also cooking 3 meals a day (plus snacks), laundry that is never done, and that all of their toys have 100 pieces and no matter how much we clean, they are always all over the floor.
Thankfully Nate did the teeth brushing and getting dressed battle this morning before he left. I was really grateful to avoid that for a morning and just jump right into the day.
It was SO humid this morning and the boys (and me) were not interested in going outside right away. We eventually went out for short periods of time, but even then, they weren’t really into it.
But the day turned out to be nice, despite my crabbiness of the morning. The boys played very well and I got a lot done.
We played with playdough and then we made banana bread.
Nate got home and we all played outside for a while.
This week we’re going to do a water theme. It’s already Tuesday and tomorrow they are at Grandma’s but I have some fun things for Thursday and Friday.
