Our busy couple weeks has arrived. Gracie and Madi are at the table eating breakfast, Brody is still in his room, I'm typing a quick update before we have to get ready and leave, and Ricky is sleeping.
Yesterday was glorious because I slept most of the day and when I was awake we were lounging. Ricky got the paper from the driveway that morning and the kids always go through it as well. This time Madi was hung up on a Minnie Mouse scooter. She has been wanting one for several weeks now but this Minnie one was on her mind for hours. She was telling Ricky, "scooter daddy" and when she'd get tried of saying that she'd say, "scooter Ricky Ann". It's hilarious because now she call Gracie by her first and middle name which is Gracie Ann. I can only imagine what she thinks she is saying. Anyway, the two of them loaded up and headed to Toys R Us to get the scooter. Of course Ricky going shopping anywhere is an event that takes forever (worse than a woman any day) so when they finally arrived back Gracie and Brody were napping. I thought we'd made a mistake by getting it because she fell a couple of times before she got the hang of it but now she is pretty much a scooter girl. We mainly got it because it will help with her balance which is a main reason she is in physical therapy. Anyway, I think the kids and I were asleep for the night by 5:30- 6:00 last night. Glorious I tell you!
Gracie and I are headed off to the Orthopedic in Sugarland. It's a drive let me tell you but I hope it's the last visit over her leg. We shall see!
It's spring break this week and if I've never mentioned how much I dislike spring break... I hate spring break. We won't be doing anything that involves crowds of people with children that are not being watch by their parents. Too many bad weekend experiences at places like the Children's Museum with kids not being watched at all and running down my kids. I don't do well in those situations. Plus we are so busy this week that any free days would be great at home playing outside on the swing or maybe the park.
Update soon.
