A Quiet(er) Evening

This afternoon the twins only had quiet time in their bedroom and did not fall asleep so by the time Ken got home there were a couple meltdowns ending with the two of them in a screaming time out in their bedroom at 6. It got really quiet so I went to look in on them – two little boys passed out behind the door – I could not even get in! That lasted about 30 min where they got up in a VERY bad mood that did not improve with baths or play or quiet cuddles so bedtime routine and off to bed early today!
We are still being tough on the bedtime – no talking just laying back down and they HATE it!!! Thank goodness Emanuel is still rather easy going.
Ken and I had a together evening… Wii, chatting and Veggie Tales… all in all a wonderful evening even with the tempermental kids. Gotta love parenthood!
Tomorrow is our weekly shopping, not too long of a list. I do need to go to Walmart though… I have to remember to pick up my dad’s present. That is going to make it to him late – no big surprise there! I still need to figure out what to get James… men are so hard to buy for!!!
Hmmm so much to do cleaning wise and absolutely no interest in doing it right now. The place DOES have to be clean for Thursday morning and our book lady… I think we only have 3 sessions left, but at least when SHE is done we will definately have nicer weather so I can work on taking the kids out. I would like to get them at least out on the lawn out front every morning it is nice out. We’ll see how that goes. If the weather is nice on Thursday my mom is coming over to walk with us after work. Ken is raiding… as usual! It is supposed to be +2 which is not overly warm so we shall see how it goes.
Saturday is Emanuel and my date with Karyn which I am really looking forward to. I still have to go through my scrapbook stuff and get organized, hopefully I will have time for that tomorrow night. Still no luck catching Christine on her cell though – I wish I could find her home number. So not too busy of a week but still stuff to look forward to. I need to cut out more shapes for the boys to glue too though they used up all the ones I did last night when they did their cutting and pasting today. So cute… Gavin uses his LEFT hand for scissors! I am surprised since they do everything else right handed! hehe well I am left handed so we shall see…
