Snow Day / Sick Day Shenanigans

Tonight's Gonna Be a Good Night

Jax says Juju

A little dark but you get the idea.

The Board

Loved seeing my little ray of sunshine on the board at the Dr.'s office and being reminded of the moment she came into my life.

Just For Fun

New haircut!

A Day in the Life

Good Morning!

• Wake up immediately going over the day ahead in my mind - are there any changes to the normal schedule? i.e Dr.'s appointments, story time, business dinners, etc..
• If monsters are still asleep, go in and make sure they're breathing because Why are they still asleep?!
  *Note: This only happens on weekdays.
• Get in the shower - Complete darkness is preferred... due to Jax's new light switch habit I've become an addict.
• Out of the shower - brush teeth - make up - underwear.
• If monsters still sleeping - check again to make sure they're breathing because Why are they still asleep?! *Note: This only happens on weekdays. 
• Dry Hair (sure to wake them up).
• If only Jackson is up - go in. Hug, kiss, hold, rock ... rinse and repeat.
• If both are up, I take Juju and Joe dresses Jax. Get as much mushy snuggling in as possible.
• Dry diap for Jax? Offer up the potty (and new truck, candy, and other assorted bribes).
• Potty yes? Take Jax, clothes, etc. to downstairs bathroom and sit him on the potty. *Resign to fact I will have to pick out the first thing that's clean to wear because 1). I am STILL in my underwear and 2) Due to potty, there will be no time for appearance consideration, ironing, or choice.
• Potty no? Get Jax dressed, bring downstairs, put in highchair - hand him milk.
• Go upstairs and say good morning to the happiest little girl on the planet (in the morning) - Miss Juliet. 
• Hug, kiss, hold, rock ...  repeat.
• Dress Juliet. Bring her downstairs and be sure to grab blankies, pacis and whatever else is needed for the day ahead.
• Feed Jackson (yogurt and toast or yogurt and a cereal bar). Feed Juliet (cereal and fruiting). *Sometimes this occurs simultaneously.
• Slug coffee.
• Pour more.
• Slug more.
• Bottles (prepared the night before) in fridge bag. Wipe the kids. More kisses, small talk and hugging. and off we go.
• Jacket, "bu hat", and "cah" sneakers for Jackson while Joe packs up the car.
• Realize Jax has a poop. Everything off, change diap, everything back on again. "Why didn't you put those in a potty? Did you know if you put those in the potty you will get a new truck?"
• Run back into the kitch to take something out of the freezer to eat for dinner. 
• Run out the door hoping to beat the buses up the street.
• Stop at neighbors before putting Jax in car seat so he can say Bye "(Bah!)" to each and every one of their lawn ornaments.
• Put Jax in the car first - Car entry order is crucial as we don't want to leave Jax alone in the house for fear of being locked out.
• Car, Drop off, Go to work.
