Woke up this morning hoping to sleep in, come on it's Saturday! Unfortunately I hear water running and squint to see who's up. Oh, it's Daddy...wait!! what?!?! Why is he up at 6:00 in the morning? I lay back down but now I can't really fall back to sleep I look up one more time and he's about to go downstairs he says "I'm going to start working in the backyard". Crazy, is all I think. So I try to go back to sleep but it's a no go. I'm waiting to hear the house alarm say "back door", it never does so I figure he changed his mind. Well, great now I'm awake, I grab my book and start reading. J is sound asleep so I move very slowly and carefully so to not wake him up. J eventually wakes up all yucky from this cold he caught. He goes downstairs and I continue to read knowing very well that now all the boys are downstairs and are quiet which can only mean one thing.....Daddy is playing his video game! By the time I decide to put my book down I already have my mind set on what I'm going to do. I get ready and come downstairs ready to go making sure they know I have a plan. As Daddy is playing his game I give him the lowdown on my plans, Mom Jr. gets ready and we're outta here!
Saturday mornings, I for one look forward to them because it's my time to get out even if it means I'm running errands. Mom Jr. and I still manage to have girl time just by ourselves. We complete our shopping and make it home just as the boys are having lunch (yahoo!! I didn't have to get lunch ready!)
J is all too excited to see us home. "Mama bring me treat, I know!" Daddy says "he cleaned up all his toys because he said he knew you were bringing him a treat". Well, lucky I had saved those mini m&m's in the fridge for him. Our day has been quite uneventful since then. I don't know if it's because we are having the weirdest weather, it was suppose to be hot, we had planned on swimming but with the cloudy weather everyone seemed to just want to stay in. Mom Jr. has movies set up to watch, the boys and Daddy got a new game not to mention his Nascar race is on this evening, and J is watching his own movie.....ooohhh, gotta love these out of the ordinary summer Saturdays!!
Here's to hoping everyone else is enjoying a peaceful, relaxing Saturday and for those of you who plan on going out tonight, party on!!
Just a Mom enjoying an unbelievably quiet evening at home!!!
