Attention Please!

I just want to call your attention to the side bar. I finally got around to taking new pictures of the kids to update their blurbs. It's a sad fact that Gideon's picture was almost two years old.


Yes. Seriously.


But it was just so darn cute.

We had a great day today. There was so much potential for a not so great day. Mostly because Rob returned to work today. That means nobody to make breakfast for the kids while I nurse the baby. Nobody to get the kids dressed while I nurse the baby. Nobody to bring me a snack while I nurse the baby. Nobody to address sibling rivalry while I nurse the baby.

You get the picture.

But we received a miracle today. Elias actually slept while I made breakfast. We watched Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs and then I took them to the library! And I left home with four kids and I came home with four kids and they were even the same kids. Woohoo! Most importantly everything was calm and fun. The kids were super thrilled to get to pick out a video and Gabe discovered there is such a thing as Nintendo Power magazine and all it talks about is video games (shocker!) and Zion found Disney Princess magazine.

Then we grabbed lunch at Wendy's, that was the funnest part of the day for Gideon I think. Came home and it was naptime for Gideon and he was really excited about that. I love it when he looks forward to his naps. I guess I kind of am living vicariously through him when it comes to naps. I'd love one. Or five.

The whole day just went really smoothly and I got to go to a women's Bible study tonight and the study is The Power Of A Positive Mom. I'm loving it!

Hoping that tomorrow is just as wonderful.
