This was a very busy week for us so I split it into two parts.
Click here for the first part of our week.
Monday (2/6) morning came very early after the late night of football
and a rough night of sleep since Adrian is not feeling well. I managed
to get everyone up and moving and we got to school on time. AJ needed
to do a service project for Cub Scouts so he helped me deliver some
donated food from our church to his school. It was eye opening for him
to hear that there are kids in his school that might not have enough
money to eat.
After I dropped everyone off, I headed to
out to run errands to get ready for the week. I went to Dollar Tree,
Aldi, Target, Meijer and Giant Eagle to finish food shopping, birthday
prep, camping prep and gift shopping. I also gassed up with my fuel
perks to be ready for all of the running around. Then I picked up Zak
and came home to deal with the plumbers working on our pipe out front.
They finally got it replaced after hours of work. The tree in the front
yard really did a number on the pipe!
I picked AJ and
Daniel up from school and got a sub for my Zumba class because I was
still dealing with the plumbers and both Zak and Adrian weren't feeling
100% so I felt it best to stay home. Adrian ended up getting stuck at
work pretty late so it was nice not to have the extra stress of teaching
a class tonight. I took the boys to Menchie's to celebrate National
Frozen Yogurt Day with some buy one, get one free yogurts. They were so
excited since it's their favorite place to go. A very full day and it
felt like I was all over the place. I hope we all sleep well tonight!!
Tuesday
(2/7) sort of felt like the calm between the storms (birthdays).
Although we did wake up with some sickness - both Zak and Adrian weren't
feeling well so they stayed home. I took AJ and Daniel to school and
also dropped off Daniel's birthday treats for his class. Since there
are two other students in his class with the same birthday, we decided
to celebrate his birthday early. He was very excited to celebrate with
his class!
While they were at school I went and taught
my new strength and balance for seniors class. It went really well, I
had more people than last Thursday so that's awesome! Then I came home
and hung out with a bored Zak. We played some Mario on the WiiU,
watched some TV and played with cars. Then we picked up the other boys,
all headed to the chiropractor for adjustments and then I went to teach
my Zumba class. We finished up the night with a Brain Balance
appointment for AJ.
Wednesday (2/8) Happy 5th Birthday
Zak!! We got a late start tonight, no one wanted to get up and
moving. I wish we could have taken a "mental health" day but it wasn't
in the cards this week. So we all got up and out to school. Zak
brought ice cream cups for his class to celebrate his birthday. His
class is also celebrating their 100th day of school this year!! It's a
big party for them today!
We did blow off soccer
tonight so we could celebrate earlier and longer. We had gnocchi for
dinner at Zak's request and then he finally got to open his presents.
He got Yo Kai medals and plush guys like he asked for, some pants, a new
jacket, a new towel and Bunchems alive. Plus Adrian and I bought a
giant set of magnetic blocks for him and Daniel for their birthdays.
They are SO happy to finally have some to play with at home. They are
obsessed with playing with them everywhere we go. We also bought them
bases so they can make cars with the blocks too.
We
finished up the night with Oreo ice cream cake, again at Zak's request.
And then we watched our brand new cable TV. After 18 months of
unplugging from cable, we got frustrated with the other options and also
got a deal from DirectTV that would be the same as we were paying for
internet and PlayStation Vue. So we made the switch again. I hope I
like it better than the last time we were customers!
Thursday
(2/9) we all got up and out the door to school and work and were on the
early side for once. I went and taught my new Silver Sneakers class
and it went really well. I had less people but it was snowing out so
I'm assuming that less people made the trip. After that I picked up Zak
and we went to Target to buy a birthday gift for his friend and spend
some of his birthday money. He bought a new game (Hungry Caterpillar
Silly Slides) and a Minecraft diamond pick axe that turns into a diamond
sword.
After shopping we came home to have lunch and
enjoy watching our new cable TV. It's a novelty to have it now but we
are enjoying it! We picked up the other boys from school and got ready
for our night activities. Adrian headed to basketball practice for AJ's
team, we let AJ take the night off from practice. Then Daniel and
Adrian headed to their basketball practice while I took AJ to Brain
Balance. I dropped him off there and Zak and I went to visit my friend
Joy where I also bought some new LulaRoe. I think I finally figured
them out and bought a cute outfit of leggings and a matching shirt.
