<\/p>\nI have a random list of oddities to share. The best word is probably “tidbits,” but as that word has been pretty commonly used this week in title, I thought I’d change things up a bit. Aren’t you glad you have me? <\/p>\n
We actually went to story time at the library yesterday for the first time. I’ll admit, it was sheer cowardice on my part, not taking the twins before now. But I figured we’d better start sometime. And I knew Karen and Jason would be there yesterday, too, so that helped keep me from chickening out.<\/p>\n
They did fine, too. Erin got really clingy and cried a bit when we first walked into the room. I think she doesn’t like big crowds. But she got over it. They mostly just watched the other kids participate. But for a first try, I think I would call it a success!<\/p>\n
We got some groceries on Tuesday. I was super-excited to watch my total drop from over $200 to just over $150 with coupons\/Kroger card applied. Love that!<\/p>\n
I’ve been pretty tired this week. I’m having trouble getting comfortable. Or I wake up and my brain turns on, so I can’t go back to sleep. Last night, that happened, and both of the twins needed me between 11 and midnight. I hope this doesn’t mean our cycle is heading back to nightly wake-up calls…<\/p>\n
I tried a one-nap schedule yesterday (story time is at 10:30). Alex barely made it home without dozing off. And they did take about a 3 hour nap (noon-3). But they were really whiny and needy by evening. So they had an early bedtime. I think we are heading toward the one-nap days, but we aren’t there yet.<\/p>\n
I was going to think of some place to go today, but I’ve decided to stay home and try to get some chores done. We’ll see what I accomplish…<\/p>\n
Tonight, I get to go hang with some ladies from the Twins Club for supper. Eric and the babies will have homemade pizza for dinner. And he’ll handle bedtime. Gotta love that!<\/p>\n
I had to remind the ants again this morning why they should avoid my counters. I hate ants. I hope they give up soon…<\/p>\n
This week started the new seasons of our favorite SyFy shows: Warehouse 13 and Eureka. We watched W13 last night (recorded). Eureka is on Friday nights, so it’s scheduled to record already. Yay for funny\/witty\/well-written shows that I’ve had to wait 9 months to see new episodes of!<\/p>\n
And that, I think, is the last of the factoids I’ve got to share right now. Happy Thursday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
