Today is the first day in a few that I haven't felt like crap and it hasn't been rainy, tornado weather! So we started off the morning with a little coffee/peppermint mocha cream and some Veggie Tales. My first attempt at nap time wasn't so great,
The Bug fell fast asleep but her big brother had other plans
(I guess it was a shot in the dark, seeing as he woke up at 8:30am)
So after I wrapped a few Christmas presents and had some yummy tortilla soup delivered by a lovely friend this morning (along with my laundry, clean and folded might I add!)
SIDE NOTE: my dryer is broken til Saturday, if you were wondering why I have such awesome friends!! and if you weren't wondering, well you still need to know I DO have awesome friends!!
Anywho, I got the well-rested munchkin up after her 1.5
hour nap and we got ready to actually get out of the house!! Who would have guessed?! My husband's jaw probably dropped to the floor when he heard the news! I put both well rested munchkin and the hyper two year old into the car for the first time in two days and we ventured to Babies-R-Us. (crazy, I know!)
The kids were actually really well-behaved and Hudson only asked to open three out of the millions of toys in the store and only managed to put one unwanted item in the cart! I think it was all because we bought "baby Jesus' house."(Fischer Price Nativity Set)
He was going to bring it home and play with baby Jesus ;)
So he knew to be on his best behavior!
To reward myself for such an uneventful, actually pleasant experience at BRUS, what else could I do but pull through McDonalds and order a double cheeseburger meal with a Dr. Pepper (of course!!) .......I can't believe I actually admitted this! I could have typed a salad and bottled water, you would have never known the difference
.......but who craves lettuce, really?!
I pull into the driveway really excited about naptime attempt #2 and the possibility of quiet not once, but twice in my house today! I am doing everything as normal, get Hudson out of the car- first (because he can actually walk) and as he follows me to the other side of the car to get Riley (LIKE WE ALWAYS DO, might I add!!) he sticks his hand inside the exhaust pipe of the car!? I am sorry, WHAT?! what would possess you to do that son?! Its not bright and shiny, it doesn't look like a train, bus, plane, race car, etc?! its not even pretty or eye catching! But my son thought his hand fit right nicely inside the burning hot tailpipe and for a second it actually did! Just long enough to burn his pinky and index finger....poor guy! I don't think I could have stopped this incident if I had tried. It was one of those slow motion moments, I was thinking that what was happening wasn't actually happening and in split second his little hand was burnt ;( Mommy fail!
The burnt hand was doctored and the little guy soon forgot about his injury (for the moment) and got SOOOOOO excited about his
Baby Jesus and Nativity Set that he took it to bed with him! so sweet!
Mommy is now sipping her Dr.P and watching last night's episode of Glee! The kiddies are finally sleeping! Yay for me time!
BTW....I was NOT the only one in line at Mcdonald's at 2:30pm! (and yes I had already eaten lunch, a small one ;)
