Yesterday the kids and I had no plans and nowhere we needed to be all day. It was an awesome feeling! I think it is the first day all summer that we didn't have anything planned. We started off by sleeping in, which is always nice! Grady has been in a routine of sleeping until 8:00 or 8:30ish and Brynlee pretty much just hangs out in her crib until we come get her. She loves her morning alone time! I'm not sure what time she actually wakes up, she is always awake and laying in her crib just looking around and talking to herself. Sometimes she starts to call for me before I go in there, but not typically.
Anyway, yesterday started off with sleeping in! After breakfast we left with intentions of running to Target and then to the Y so I could workout while they went to child watch. (Brynlee has been one other time before and did well! I'm pretty sure she just followed Grady around the whole time!)
Of course, our Target trip took much longer than expected. So instead of the Y we found a new park to play at for a bit and then went to see my Aunt Shari's house improvements. (she just put it on the market...)
After that we went home for lunch and naps. They both took long naps! Even Brynlee, who is typically a short napper. The heat from our pool time on Sunday must have worn them out! And, the best part is that I got a lot done during nap time! Everything on my list got done, including making a list of everything I want to get done the rest of the week during nap time! I know. I'm a nerd.
As soon as the kids got up (actually we woke Grady up so we could get going, which actually happens often....I have too many fun things I want to do to be held up by his nap! Haha) we headed downtown for frozen yogurt at Red Mango and then the Children's Museum!
After that we headed home for dinner and then went on a long walk with Paul! Ended the night with my fave, The Bachelorette!!!!
I love those days of no plans and we can just make our own day of fun.
And then today (Tuesday) I took the kids to Kellan's all day to play! I got the day off! It was awesome to be at home by myself and get a lot done, do some shopping, work out, make dinner, etc! And it was great going to pick the kids up again and hear about how much fun they had! Grady hasn't been to Kellan's this summer so he was really missing his friends!
