Monday

"Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be" - The mamas and the papas

The day started off with getting a call from the school letting me know that Michelle forgot her cookie dough order and needed it by the end of the day. Seeing as how I couldn't drive it there with more kids then seats we made it our walk for the day. After dropping off the order continued back and stopped at the "little park" to play. I got Jordan to pose for pictures for me so I could practice in manual mode. You can see those pics here!

We had a quiet night at home watching football while Michelle went to GEMS with a friend.  I did venture out with Jana and my mom to the 2nd Chance open house!  I ended up buying way to much stuff.  I bought a lot of books (love getting books there) and found a bunch of movies on VHS that we watching when we were much younger.  

Jana and I have plans to watch these soon!

Typical Tuesday

Jordan went to preschool and took Mario for show and tell since they could bring whatever they wanted to this week. Tuesday nights are my night to do whatever with.  I haven't been taking full advantage of them yet because I am always to tired by the time all the day care kids leave.  Tonight I managed to go to the grocery store then I locked myself in my room took a shower and relaxed.  Meanwhile, Josh and the kids cleaned up the downstairs. 

Wednesday

I like Wednesday nights too because both the kids go to church activities which leaves Josh and I a couple hours to ourselves. We usually enjoy some wine and watch shows together. Very relaxing in my book.

Thursday

Today is my me day!  Today Jordan had his harvest party at preschool so he got to dress up.  I did a mini photo shoot with him before we left.

Here is a sample and the rest you can see here!

After I drop Jordan off at preschool I am free til three!  Today Jana and I wanted to actually do something we pinned on pinterest so we decided to make Rolo Brownie Bites.

Mom stopped by with Jordan and she got in a quick Cohen snuggle while Jordan told me about his preschool party.

  He didn't want to sleep at this morning but Jana finally got him to fall asleep and we got some cute pics.

Here is a sample and the rest you can here!

Friday

Who doesn't love Friday.  

I practiced taking some indoor pictures of Jordan which is a lot harder then outdoor. Since indoors tend to have less natural light especially when dark and gloomy so window light doesn't even help. At least I have a few months of dreary, wet, cold weather to keep us indoors so i can practice.  Will have to get a large supply of tootsie rolls to keep Jordan on board!

We also worked on some puzzles and worksheets together which we loved.  I need to print some more to start doing daily.  He goes through them so fast.

TGIF!!!  

Looking forward to two days to sort of sleep in, hang out in sweat pants all day, and relax as a family. 

No big plans for this weekend.  Josh is playing in a softball tournament in Canada which we will probably skip.  I wanted to practice more photo taking with Michelle if the rain decides to go away.
