Some days I just have good days. I can't explain it (trust me, if I could, I'd replicate it every day!) but some days everything just falls into place for me. Today is such a day. Greg helped me give the kids a bath before he left for work (we were out late the past two nights, and we have our church group tonight, so they really needed baths), I got them both dressed and they both ate good breakfasts. I vacuumed the whole house, took a shower, stripped and remade all the beds, started washing sheets, ran the dishwasher and did a quick food shopping trip. Back home, played for a bit, both kids ate good lunches, then Mariana went down for a nap. Owen helped me straighten up the living room and we played CandyLand. I lost, but barely. I was *this* close to end, but drew the gumdrop card and had to go all the way back. He checked toys he wanted from Santa Claus out of the Toys R Us catalog while I cleaned the kitchen. Now Mariana is awake, my house is clean and picked up, laundry is going, kids are happy and well fed, and we even got some playing time in. I think we'll take a walk soon :)
Ok, ok, so I didn't get to the gym. I never claimed to be perfect!!
On a totally unrelated topic, I felt this was important enough to share. This is actually one of my biggest pet peeves - I am so picky about what Mariana wears, and I'm sure its only going to get worse as she gets older.
