Good day!

Today was a great day. I was the kind of mom I wish I was every day. I mulit-tasked and got lots of stuff done and even was a fun and semi-patient mom.

This morning, Kannon was kinda fussy so I held him and watched some HGTV. Then when I got up to do my work I just put him in the Snuggli. He took a little snooze and I got my stuff done. I was able to tackle a few organizing projects that I have been wanting to do.

Mason and Addi got out of school early. (Tennessee is so weird. They start school in the middle of August but then give the kids a bunch of 1/2 days of school. Whatever!) And we went to Chuck E Cheese. I need the mom of the year award for that. :) Actually it was really nice. We have a good system down-I only give each of them 1 token at a time so then they have to keep coming back to me. That way I know where they are. I just sat at our table, ate my lunch and even looked at a magazine while I held Kannon. Mason and Addi had a blast, Kannon was happily held and I had a pretty mello few hours. We ran to Target afterwards for a few last minute Halloween items-flashlights, spiderwebs, etc. I did lose my patience a little bit in there, but there were no tears-from me or the kids-so I count that as a win!

When we got home, I washed the car while Addi and Kannon napped for a bit and Mason went over to our neighbors house to play. When we went in, I made dinner, while playing catch with Mason and helping Addi with an art project. Then Mason did his homework, we ate, took baths and then I read the kids a book. All while being in good spirits and joking around with my kids. I love days like this!

And now because I can't post without pics here is one of Mason tap dancing, which he learned from watching Happy Feet, Addi looking super cute and little Kannon holding up his sweet little head.
