a day in the life of...

So today was a pretty normal day for us, so i thought i would take some pictures and tell you how it went. The boys all woke up at about 7am, Gavin and Colin decided they would play in their room for a little while before coming down for breakfast. Nolan and i went downstairs and for some rolling around time on the floor. The boys finally came down and we all had breakfast. I worked out for a little while, while the boys ran around and played and entertained Nolan. By that time it was time for Nolans first nap, and the boys decided they wanted to watch Monsters Inc. So we all sat down and watched a movie and read books. Nolan woke up and i took a shower, got all 3 of the boys dressed to go out. I forgot i ran the dishwasher so had to empty that real quick. Then it was off to Home Depot to get some Caulking to redo in the Shower in our room, another check of the list to getting our house ready! On our way home i was talking to the boys asking them what they wanted for lunch and Gavin asked for Chips and Cheese. Now this is one of my fondest memories of growing up. I usually got it when i was home sick from school, my mom would heat up Cheese whiz put i layer or Ruffles on a plate then put some melted chz of them and then a layer of fritos and some more melted chz on top. I loved it!! And since we hadnt done it for lunch in quite some time i thought oh heck why not, we dont aways have to follow the rules.



After lunch it is time for naps for Colin and Nolan and quiet time for Gavin while i try and catch up on work. To much of my surprise Gavin fell asleep too!! Which he almost never does. Nolan decided to take a short nap so it was me and him after playing for a little while i decided i would help Jason get a head start and i took the old caulking out of the shower. By that time Colin woke up, and crazy enough Gavin was still sleeping, So i read a couple of books to Colin and Nolan. We went downstairs and i got a bowl of Cheerios for Colin and Nolan to share. This is what happened next...


So yes Colin was feeding Nolan Cheerios, isnt that what big brothers are for?!?!? Gavin then woke up and he wanted to some Pretzels, so Colin and him sat at the table for a little snack while i feed Nolan his 2nd baby food for the day. I cleaned up a little ( swept and mopped) while Gavin and Colin played outside and Nolan played in his exersauser. Nolan then went down for his third and final nap. Now i am getting dinner ready, sine Colin has swim class at 5:30 tonight. After Swim class it will be Nolans dinner and bath time and then story and bedtime. Anyways that is just one of the many days in the life of us!
