Actually, I have only left my home 2 times briefly until this morning when I left for church. After we went to the doc on Thursday with L, we locked down into full rest and recover mode. L has a respiratory infection with ears that didn't look good (not a full-blown infection, but headed that way). So after leaving the doctor's office, we picked up C from the sitter (she wasn't really sick enough to warrant a copay and didn't need to expose her to lurking viruses), we battoned down the hatches around here. It's been wet and COLD, so we've stayed in. I actually enjoyed being here all day. I've really been working with C on the potty training. We one day with several accidents, but since then, all is doing well...except that one "shoo-ee." I had a date with my hubby thanks to my in-laws who called and ASKED to keep our children at our house. Dinner and a movie....nice! Home to kids bathed and having fun with Nana and GrandTam, wonderful. Both kiddos begged them to spend the night, and we were happy they did. It made for a lovely Saturday morning visiting and eating breakfast here together.
Saturday was spent directing C to the potty...successful for the most part...no tee-tee accidents at all! Then, dinner at Truett's Grill to celebrate L's sign-up for Pre-T-Ball. I don't know who's more excited, Daddy, GrandTam or L! So, both kiddos loved Truett's b/c of the cool train that runs along the ceiling. It's great for us, too, b/c it's Chick-fil-A food stepped up a notch! YUM! Then, we tag-teamed shopping to pick up some Crocs for GrandTam's belated b-day present. Home for baths and bed. Did I mention how many trips we made to the potty??????
Up early for nursery duty at church...by myself. Kept both kids at home with Daddy. We traded off, and he came to second service. Both kiddos ended up in our bed last night. Coughing, sniffiling, restless. No church nursery, just in case. C now has a full blown runny nose, but no cough yet. After debating on whether we should just drop off our home-group's meal (I made BBQ-the main dish) or stay, we decided to stay. Glad we did, several of the kids' noses looked just like C's. Tis the season for winter noses!
After lunch and Bible study, home for naps! Ahhh, still so thrilled I got my AWESOME nap courtesy of my AWESOME husband (who also cleaned the kitchen and straightened the house while we slept). Hubby's brother and family along with his dad and sister and our friends Thomas and Heather and their boys came for the super bowl. Low maintenance for me, Josh and Renata brought the meals (hot dogs and brats on the grill for the guys and kiddies, left over steak for steak salads for the gals, ice cream for dessert...yum!) The kids played well together, so it was nice for us to visit. Off to another fun week tomorrow! I do love Sundays, such a fresh start!
- C will cheer for anyone when they go to the potty, with genuine excitement! She's hillarious!
- L is signed up for T-Ball, how exciting.
- L is starting to recognize letter sounds along with letter names. Makes his former teacher mom proud!
- C sings the Little Einsteins song over and over!
