Mommy JJ date night

JJ and I had a date night on Friday as Eric and Ruby went to the children's theatre. The night was filled with out favorite things: slides, digging in the dirt, rolling down hills and lastly, PIE! JJ had these mini pies... I had a large pie of sour cherry pie... I meant to not eat all of it... But somehow...
;)

I just turned my back for a moment... I swear! He told me he's getting ready for a party. Come on over! :)

a slice of the day...

This is me today...

I hate driving RJ to school, its too close to not walk.

Its not raining that hard, really just a sprinkle...

Its a 10 minute walk, if I'm pushing a stroller.

Me, always running late.

Oh mannnn! We gotta GO, GO, GO! 

Pushing kids out the door...

RUN to school, down hill we make it in 5 minutes... 30 seconds to spare  before the bell.

Good, made it just in time!

Kids signing/shouting the whole way - roller coaster style - AAAAAAaaaaaaaaH!

Head home, back up the hill...

Stop to watch an excavator at work.

   Jeremy: What are they doing with that excavator?

   Me: Digging a hole.

   JJ: Why are they digging that hole Mama?

   Me: I don't know Bear.

   Jeremy: What are they doing with that excavator?

   Me: Digging a hole.

   JJ: Why are they digging that hole Mama?

   Me: I (still) don't know Bear.

   JJ:  Mama, I need to poo!

Oh no! Jeremy didn't poop yesterday...

5 blocks from home,

We gotta GO, GO, GO!

RUN home, up hill!!!

That morning, me, trying to look cute at 36 (or am I 37?) and worn braids on each side.

Braids take turns jumping in my mouth with each stride...

make it home, just in time!

   Me: Good job Bear!

   JJ: Good job Mama! 

   Me: Thanks Bear, thanks.  Sigghhhhh!
