I THINK..i think...
I think...I have a few moments to myself. As a matter of fact, Ailea is in the same room with me however she is sitting in her swing babbling!! It's been a CRAZY DAY!
This week, I welcomed a school-ager, 7yr old girl, into my daycare home! Wow, that makes #4. Obviosuly Leanna and Ailea are #1 & #2. The lil dude, Jack-2yrs old, started Aug 26 (Leanna's birthday). So, at least I've had an oppurtunity to gradually accept my new role as an in home daycare provider. Trying to manage my Lil Lovebug's needs along with Jack's & Leanna's. Fortunately, Leanna has been in preschool and she's been learning LOTS!! I am sooo PROUD of her!! She comes home singing songs I had forgotten about, copying her name, her vocabulary is expanding with words like; well, probably, actually....it's INCREDIBLE!! Some days after getting her dressed and ready, I would rather just keep her home because I honestly miss her!! I miss her like crazy!! I never did get a chance to just fully enjoy Leanna & Ailea, just us together lounging around. I think I spent almost 3wks getting used to having both of them & managing a newborn, then Leanna started school. So, whenever Jack leaves before daddy gets home, I try to soak up every second of just us girls!!
So, the 7yr old started, she arrives about 6:30am..Meaning I'm up by at least 5:15, WAKING up, getting ready, nursing Ailea if she's up which is typical around this time, tidying up any loose ends. Emily arrives, she entertains herself, I attend to Ailea if she's still up, Wake up Leanna (which is NOT the easiest, she's a MAJOR GROUCH!)--sometimes daddy helps, get Leanna dressed, hair made and off to school she goes. Daddy has been taking her to school & picking her up on his way home for lunch. I picked her up twice and it was craziness since Jack refused to Leanna becuase there were WAY TOO many toys for him to play with.... Breakfast is started for Emily and then we wait for Jack's 8am arrival. He grabs a bite to eat or I pack it for the stroll to drop Emily off at school. Overall, it's like a 20minute walk to and from! ......to be continued!
