A Day in the Life...

So my friend Katie had the awesome idea of doing a week of "day in the life" posts. I thought this was a great idea... however, it's also a ton of work, and so today will be the first AND last of the series!

Here it goes...

7:00AM - Wake up to Cate eating cheerios in bed while hubby gets ready for work.

7:30AM - Wrangle Cate to get dressed and bring her and Maddie downstairs to get ready for preschool.

She decided that she needed to be in EVERY photo...

7:45AM - Deal with tantrum #4 so far, I think this one had to do with wanting to eat her preschool snack now, rather than keep it for preschool...

8:00 AM - Attempt to make a plan to clean the house... See, my house gets messy just like the rest of you!

8:25AM - Oh yeah, it's Cleanse Day... Mmmm... Sad there will be no Timmy's on the drive in today. Also sad that hubby took the last travel mug...

8:30AM - Off we go! Atleast someone is happy this morning...

It got kinda crazy between dropping Cate off at Preschool at 9AM and coming back home at 1:30PM. Somewhere in between there was a battle with the printer, a trip to Micheal's to find more tent cards, another trip across the city to actually buy the tent cards, and finally arrived home. Cate fell asleep 5 minutes before we pulled into the driveway.

When one is sleeping, the other one is...

Apparantly the nap didn't last the couch transfer. 10 minute nap it is...

Multi-tasking...

Oh yeah, we have a dog too... Poor Panda is last on the list these days.
