Today so far

Okay, so let's start from last evening.
1) While I was out of the room for a moment, Clay turned my 32 oz cup (almost full of strawberry flavored water) onto its side on the leather recliner. That took a little to clean up. Now we have a couple of clean places on the floor.
2) Last evening, Clay used the bath toys to dip into the toilet and fill up the bottles and soak the bathroom floor and rug.
3) This morning, Jenelle was bouncing the big ball that finally came out of 2 days' worth of time out and knocked the sconce and candle off the wall, knocked down a glass picture frame, the phone and broke the head off one of my Precious Moments figurines. (Amazingly enough, God kept me calm. Thank You, God.)
4) While I was putting clean sheets back on my bed, Clayton had found the salt shaker and emptied most of it on the table, the floor and the chairs.
It's only 9:35 this morning, but it's going to be a good day. Hopefully nothing else will stand out.:)





The rest of the day--
We went to pick up some scrip and while we were out, I thought the kids would enjoy going to the park. They did and even got a little sun. A surprise to me was that some of my mom friends were at the park with their kids, too. Then I took the kids to Baskin Robbins since we had some gift certificates AND I had a two for 1 coupon. It was fun. We parked a ways off and walked there. The kids ate their cones, but most of their ice cream is in the freezer for another time. Jenelle even took a nap today--which I don't take for granted anymore. She has taken naps 3 out of 6 days this week. The nap phase is ending. So sad, but room time will still happen. Now they're playing outside on this beautiful day. Thank You, God, for making this day much better than the starting of it seemed like it would be. 5:37PM
