Whirlwind Day

Things are hopping these days! Many goings on scheduled here and there, half of which I forget and end up apologizing to people for doing so.  It's busy, but a good busy. Plus, buying our second car has proven to take longer than (it should or) we planned. We sold our old car thinking the purchase would be quick, this has left us with one car, which has added to the craziness of our current days and today was no exception. Here is a timeline of one day just for the heck of it. 

6:45// Ollie wakes up and goes downstairs to draw and read. 

7:00// Ansel wakes up and proceeds to come into our room to deliver the line, "Mom, wake up and come downstairs."

7:30// Breakfast is served. I make Ollie lunch and sign agenda. 

7:45// The boys take a rare morning bath because we've had two tub-less late nights in a row (due to previous busy/fun days).

8:47// We leave to pick up carpool and drop off at school. 

9:30// Leave to take Jess to work. 

10:00// Receive text asking, "is Ansel coming to preschool co-op today? 

10:07// Drop Jess off. 

10:05// Receive text asking if we'd like to meet at the library today with a friend.
