Nothing New

I don't really haven't anything exciting to blog, but I haven't done any for awhile. So I thought I might mention what I do all day. From the looks of my house, cleaning is not the answer. Some days I work at the gym. This is a great job because I get to take my kids with me and I get a free gym membership. The best part is that I'm only on-call, so I don't even work that much. I really need the membership, 5 years of marriage+2 kids = and extra 60 pounds. I have already lost 23 pounds with a lot to go, but at least we are making progress. Some days Kaitlyn has preschool. It takes about 20-30min to walk round trip, and it usually during Carsen's nap time, so he is ready to create messes when we get home. I can usually get the dishes done and the bed made before I have to get Kaitlyn. Oh, yeah, I also make a ton of RS phone calls while she is at preschool. Other days we have story time at the library, or a playgroup or some RS visits to do. Then it is lunch time and nap time. If I'm really lucky both kids nap at the same time. Then I do dishes, sweep, etc. Then kids wake up, dinner has to be started because Rich will be home for about an hour or so before he leaves again. Then its dinner, bath, stories, bed time...man your battle stations, and usually everyone is in bed by 9:30pm. By this time I give up on the dishes...did I mention I do have a dishwasher...her name is Aleisha...check my e-mail make a list of to do things for tomorrow and go to bed until 3-4am when Carsen thinks he needs to sleep with us, so I kick Kailtyn out of our bed, and put Carsen in until Rich gets up at 4:30-5am to head out for another long day. All in all I can't complain. I love it. Kaitlyn, Carsen, and I always have some activity or project going on, and Rich never gets mad when the house is still messy when he gets home. He just asks if we had fun today. (How could you not when you spend half your day pretending to be a horse, or a farmer, or a big sister. :) So that is what I do all day. How about you?
