Well I finally just sat down.
I know I said I wasn't going to pack Glen's bag, but I did minus warm clothes. I was putting away the laundry and was running out of room so I packed his shirts, underwear, socks, shorts and swim pants. He can pick out what he wants to wear that is warmer and if he wants pants.
I am pathetic aren't I?
Tomorrow is Christmas In July with the daycare kids so I just finished decorating the living room with tinsel and putting up some Christmas decorations. Waylon and Emma's mom loaned me a little tree so we can put our presents under it. Thanks Tracy. Hopefully they appreciate it. The boys just came downstairs a few minutes ago and Aidan asked if it was Christmas. LOL so cute.
We are doing a present pass around, making christmas cookies, making a Christmas craft and watching a Christmas movie for quiet time. I will probably read a Christmas story too. It will be fun. The kids are psyched!
It will be a crazy last day before vacation.. but at least the kids will have a good day if all goes well.

Oh Man, that sucks.
We got out for a walk this morning, it wasn't raining yet, but I still dressed up the kids in rain coats just in case.
So we get halway around the block and it starts sprinkling. I figure we have about 10 minutes before it pours by looking at the clouds.. I was wrong.
Full on downpour within a minute. Oh we got wet. I don't mind walking in the rain and we were even splashing in puddles and laughing at how wet we were getting. But all of a sudden Helyn wanted to get carried, Emily started whining and the dog was pulling like crazy. Ahhhh. They took my happy moment and made it anxiety ridden. Oh well.. I figured they were hungry so we are having an early lunch before a craft project and then its quiet time.
Oh how I love quiet time. Jorian and Emily are the only 2 who usually nap, but I have a feeling Helyn will fall asleep today. Waylon and Emma can watch a movie or play on the computer for a bit and I don't think the boys are coming home any time soon. So please pray its quiet for a bit so i can regroup.

Thursday T - 2 days
2 more days.
2 more days?!
OMG 2 more days until we leave.
AHHHHHHHHHHH
I am trying my hardest not to freak out but yea.. its hard. There is just so much to do. I am not sure what needs to be done, what if we forget something and etc..
On the bright side, I am down 5 pounds from last week. I started really eating better 2 Sundays ago and walking almost every day and some areobics in there as well and I am down 5 pounds. I am 3 pounds from the top of my bmi now and I have another 10 pounds I want to lose on top of that too. I am hoping that we can get in some exercise on the beach as well. I don't see why we wouldn't be able to as we don't have the kids with us.
It will be nice to take a jog along the beach.
Anyways.
Last night was a horrible sleep night. Helyn fell asleep at 6 pm watching TV in our room. She has done this a few times before and slept through the night no problem.
Last night was a different night.
She woke up as I was going to bed at 1030 and she played in my bed until 4ish. 4 O clock in the morning!!!! And somewhere in between there, the cat got on the bed and started playing too.
So here I am this morning on, if I am lucky 3 hours sleep. I had to get up for Emily and Jorian being delivered at 6 am... oh dear God... please make this day go fast.

Starting to rain now.
I got out for an hour long walk this evening.
I really needed it.
I felt like I was going to crawl out of my skin with everything that has to be done in 2 days time.
I got the boy's bags packed today so that is one less thing, but the cleaning.. oh the cleaning.
Helyn passed out at 6 so after I finish this, I am going to go and get my stuff done so maybe I can go to bed early or spend a few moments with Glen after he gets back from the gym.
Sigh.. i don't wanna clean.
Someone come do it for me?

Steve the Cat.
Our cat does the most cutest/disturbing thing.
He has a thing for fleece.
Usually its a fleece blanket but right now its my sweater.
He likes to suckle at it, he kneeds with his paws and sucks at it until he falls asleep.. just like a baby nurses.

I feel like I am getting sick
Please don't let me be sick.
I don't need to be sick while on vacation.
I feel really run down, having troubles sleeping and I am a little stuffy today.
Let it be allergies or dust!
I am still on top of the laundry!! I am really proud of myself. I find it really easy to fall behind with it and so far I am ahead at folding and putting most of it away. The boys have to put their own away today. I have been reminding them all this week about it, but its still sitting there on the top bunk.( they have been sleeping on the floor again... silly boys) So I have to get their butts in gear today before they get to play video games or visit friends, they will have to put their clothes away.
Its bike day today with the day care kids. Please hope and pray it doesn't rain. They really enjoyed taking their bikes out last week so I decieded to do it again this week. We won't be decorating them, but we will go for a couple nice long bike rides.
3 more days people. 3 more days and we will be on the road on our way to our campsite for a little R & R. Its so needed right now.
