Errands And Chores

Dearest Blessings~

Whoa little lady!  You slept in this morning!  You didn't get hungry until 5:30am!  Daddy changed your diaper since I was in some pain from not nursing you earlier.  Then, I nursed you.

Grace, you stayed awake after our 5:30am nursing, so I took you downstairs for a pop tart (for me, not you) and then we went upstairs in the playroom as the boys slept.  I did some reading and you did some tummy time.  

Once people were up for the day, we ran some errands.  We all went to Lowes, Shane's Rib Shack for lunch, and then Target.  We got some groceries, door stoppers for the house, weather stripping for the attic door in the bonus room (we're slowly trying to improve the house), and a new litter box for the cat.  We've only been living in this house for a year and we've already made a lot of nice changes.  We've painted two bedrooms, placed new floors in the upstairs (3 bedrooms and a hallway), changed different door handles and door stoppers .... we have several house projects that we want to get done which will take time.  Daddy and I like projects though, and they can be fun too.  :-)

Joshua, you tried some chicken, BBQ, mac and cheese, and fries at lunch!  You also had a boost drink.  Yummm!

After our errands, I changed both your diapers and outfits.  You two were really sweaty when I took you out of the car and I had the air on the third setting and the backseat fan running.  It's just so hot out!

We all did some afternoon chores around the house:

-set up the new litter box

-changed 11 door stoppers (we had to change them because Joshua likes to break the 'springy' ones and take the white end caps off of them)

-vacuumed bonus room

-swept bathroom floors and vacuumed

-organized and cleaned kitchen and downstairs

We had music going while we were working and you two played.  :-)  Grace, you had a HUGE soupy poop right before dinner!  It was all over your outfit, you, and the blanket.  I changed you and then you had a bath.  Joshua ended up with a bath today too.  Grace, your hair was so fluffy afterward!  It was adorable! 

We had a great dinner this evening!  We made some turkey filets, potatoes, and veggies .... Joshua ate some turkey, hotdog, and potatoes!  :-)  Woo hoo!

Relaxed upstairs this evening and did some things on the computer.  Looked at some ceiling fans to put up in the bonus room.  The one that's up is too small.  We can easily put a 70 inch one up .... right now it's only 52 or 54 inches.  :-P  I bet that would really cool the room off!  :-)

Daddy changed all the air filters.  We've been changing them every 3 months, but we may try changing them every 2 months.  They get dirty fast and if we change them more often then cleaner air will flow.  Also, daddy added some extra weather stripping around the attic door in bonus room.  Hopefully this will help prevent warm air from coming in and cold air from going out.

It thundered with some lightening this evening.  Daddy read us some Bible stories again before bedtime and then he cut Joshua's nails once he fell asleep.  I was nursing Grace.

Sleep tight you two!

I love you both!
