Week Rundown! (08/10/14 - 08/16/14)


Lydia got up early Sunday morning and walked the dog, now part of her daily schedule. We all got ready for church and attended morning services. We watched a movie during lunch and then attended a retirement party for one of Lydia's coworkers. And now part of my daily schedule, I took Buttercup for a walk that evening before bed. Yes... more exercise!

Monday was the last day of summer vacation for the kids. Lydia went into work while I stayed home with both Mysia and Malachi. We spent the day playing Legos, watching TV, and playing with Buttercup outside. Once piano lessons were over, we met Lydia at home and headed to the school. The kids brought their school supplies, found their classrooms, and met their teachers! It's gonna be a great school year. We then went to Rib Crib for MeMaw's birthday, and visited with aunt Adria, aunt Lycia, and uncle Jordan as well. Buttercup was excited to see us when we got home that evening, and I took her for her walk before bed.

Tuesday was the first day of school, both kids were super excited! They were ready to head out the door before time to leave... Making wonder how long that would last. After picking them up from school, I dropped them off at Granny's while I finished work. The kids got to play with their cousins! I met Lydia at home for for supper and then we went over to visit Ana and cousins for the evening, then it was back home and get ready for bed.

Besides the new school schedule for the week, Wednesday was pretty normal. The kids got to spend the later afternoon with Granny and the big event for the evening was putting together Buttercup's doghouse.

On Thursday, the kids got to hang out with the cousins one last time after school. That evening Mysia worked on her homework while Malachi played. After supper, we watched some TV and played with the dog.

Friday was fast paced. I picked up the kids from school in the afternoon and brought them back to the office with me for a bit before we headed home. The kids played outside with Buttercup until it was time to eat supper. That evening we watched Star Wars 6... Malachi was excited.

We woke up Saturday morning at a decent time. Of course, Buttercup prevents Lydia and me from sleeping in too long. We had a list of things to accomplish around the house before lunch. Lydia and Mysia attended a Mom & Daughter Bible study while Malachi and I stayed home. He played and cleaned up his room. I worked on a few projects. Later on we all visited Lydia's extended family for a gathering of two baby showers in one. We got to visit with aunts, uncles, and cousins. Lydia and the kids spent the evening at home with showers and watching some TV. I was able to attend a Southern Gospel Concert with friends. It was a busy, but fun, day!
