10 events of my day

1.Woke up 6:00 to go running.  I am loving the fall weather.

2. Went shopping with some ladies to "Painters Street" A cool street where you can get things framed, or painted for a decent price.

3.Left R babe with my friends Ayi (Nanny).  She watched him for 6 hours.  A little longer than anticipated, but a fun afternoon of exploring.  I loved the conversation R babe and I had about the things they did at  his friends house while I was gone.  Apparently they have a blue bike that is hard to ride, but the pink one was fun. He said he had a hard time getting his friend to share it with him.  Then they played with toys, and went to the park.  His friend fell  and cried but he didn't cry.  What a little cutie, and then he told me he loved me...What a sweet little man.  As we walked in the door I knew he was tired and needed a nap, but we didn't have much time until we had to pick up the kids.

4.Went and picked up some lunch after painters street and then taxied home because both our drivers, because of lack of good communication, where not around to pick is up. 

5. Went and picked up the kids from school today, on the way R babe fell asleep so I carried him in and out of 2 school.   He is getting SO heavy.

6.As we left school today there was a lady selling roasted chestnuts.  We have been wanting to try them for some time and finally did it.  They were interesting.

7. I Had J watch the kids while I ran to the store.  Really I have no car after 4:30 so I had to run, although I really just walked (fast), to the store.  I dragged home $75 dollars worth of groceries.  including 3 liters size bottles of pop, and 4 liters of milk, and 1 gallon of water.  I don't know why I do that to myself.  It was So heavy.  Apparently I was getting in all the heavy lifting today.

8. Came home to the rush and craziness of making dinner and trying to help the kids with homework.  I tried a new recipe, eggplant parmesan, but added some pasta to it.  It was a hit.  Which I was thrilled about because the last few meals I tried didn't turn out so good.  That is what you get when you experiment with new ingredients.

9. Got the kids into the bath, and cleaned up dinner.

10. Was happy to have R home around 7:30. When we read scriptures and put the kids to bed.

What a day!
