Since Lydia was on "bed-rest" for two days after her heart procedure on Friday, we stayed home from church on Sunday. The kids were going to attend services, but the roads were too slick for our comfort, so they stayed home as well. The day was filled with action and activities, and we even took naps in the afternoon. Lydia was able to get rest, which was the plan of course.
Monday was no different than any other. Lydia went into work, but she can't lift anything over 10 pounds. Lydia attended a make-up test around 3pm. I took Mysia to piano lessons afterwards, and then we picked up Lydia before coming home for the evening. After supper, we watched some tv and the kids had showers before bed. Lydia worked on homework and rested.
After work on Tuesday, the kids and I came home and had supper before picking Lydia up from her classes. She was tired, so she went to bed once home. Malachi had some homework to finish before he could go to bed.
Wednesday was "fun night" for the kids at church. I enjoyed the evening services. After picking Lydia up from class, she worked on homework while the kids went to bed.
Thursday evening was a bit hectic. The kids and I ate supper and worked on homework before picking Lydia up from classes. Once home, we tackled getting Valentine cards signed and ready for Friday. I had to run to the store to grab a few things we were running low on, and construction paper. We stayed up late assisting Mysia with her box. It turned out fantastic... a girl Minion! :)
Of course, Friday was Valentines Day. Lydia and the kids got their gifts when they woke up. It's a tradition of mine that they each get a Mylar balloon. Of course, Lydia gets extra gifts. I was able to get flowers sent to her workplace as well. That evening, we watched some tv shows during supper. After the kids went to bed, Lydia and I watched a romantic comedy.
Pancakes were for breakfast on Saturday, then the kids and I dropped Lydia off at work before attending Taekwondo class. That afternoon, we ate chicken nuggets for lunch while Mysia and Malachi educated me on popular, trending songs on YouTube. We picked up Lydia from work and went to a park to let the kids ride their bikes since the weather was so nice. After packing up the bikes, it was clothes shopping! Yes, we visited many stores and got much needed clothes for everybody. We shopped the mall until it closed!!! What an exhausting evening, but something that need to be done. Now we look good!
