0630am - Stevie's alarm goes off. She gets up, usually with Nico, and they both get ready for work/school. Stevie's out the door at 0645 to the bus, and Nico leaves shortly after at 0730 for work. If I'm lucky, I get to lay in my bed and slowly wake up til about 0745. Around that time, I hear the tiny knock coming from the back room... It's Victoria. "Mommy, I dooooone!" (she's done sleeping, that is.)
I slowly get out of bed, throw on my housecoat, and let her out of her cage. Ava's still sleeping soundly, with the blankets pulled over her head. Her biggest complaint is that her sister is noisy and wakes her up. Victoria and I proceed to the front of the house where she either requests chocolate milk or apple juice, and vanilla wafers - her breakfast of choice for this phase in her life. She then wants me to put the TV on where she asks for the pig (The Simpson's Movie), the bunny (Hop), Coraline, or Bolt.
Ava eventually wakes up... usually around 0830. Once she's fully awake she'll demand pancakes or waffles and some chocolate milk.
Around 0930, I get all of us dressed and we drive up the road to drop Ava off at "school" (all day daycare, where she's got friends and activities!) Then it's free time to do whatever Victoria and I want to do until lunch. Sometimes we come home and take the dog for a walk... sometimes we go to the park... sometimes we go window shopping or surf the aisles of Wal Mart or Target. Sometimes we have lunch with my mom. Sometimes we snag a burger and stuff our faces at home. I try to get her down for a nap by 130pm at the latest, where she sleeps 1.5-2 hours. Ahh, one of the best parts of my day.
While she's sleeping, I usually go on poop scoop duty in the backyard. I play a little with the puppy... then come in and play facebook games.
315pm is when the schoolbus brings Stevie home. These past 2 weeks, I've had to go to the school to pick her up at 345pm on M, T, and W. (tutoring.) Her teacher told her today, though, that she wouldn't have to continue tutoring anymore... she's finally smart enough :P Stevie comes home, does her chores, then heads out to enjoy the afternoon.
4pm, Victoria and I load up to go pick up Ava. If we need any last minute stuff for dinner, we'll swing by the grocery store on the way home. If it's Tuesday or Thursday, we go straight to T-Ball practice, and we won't get home until 7pm .
Dinner is roughly betwen 6 and 630. (except on Tball nights.) Baths are every other night. Bedtime is promptly at 830pm. Laundry is typically on the weekends. Vacuuming is whenever I feel like it. This blog post is not all inclusive of the many responsibilities throughout the day.
I don't have the will to blog. I don't have the want to take pictures. If I'm not playing my games on facebook, I'm zoning out to 80s movies. (or surfing job sites.)
Anyway... this little goldfish is about to go find a puddle and pass out. Not sure if I'm looking forward to Spring Break next week... who gets the break, anyway? :P
