A Day in the Life

...of a stay-at-home-mom.

6:15 am - Wake up, move the baby supplies (boppy, bibs, eye drops, etc) downstairs for the day, shower, eat breakfast

8 am - Carina eats breakfast

9 am - Laundry, paint my toenails

10 am - Strap Carina into the baby wrap and wear her while I blog

10:30 am - Carina eats her 2nd breakfast

11 am - Check mail, put in "Sex and the City" movie

12 pm - Make lunch, cuddle Carina while she is fussy, protect my sandwich from Kenny

12:30 pm - Enjoy Carina sleeping on my chest

1:30 pm - Carina eats lunch, I get sucked into Days of Our Lives (who watches soap operas?!)

2 pm - rest a little

I expect an early dinner for Carina before Peter gets home. Someone from church is delivering dinner for us. Hopefully tonight at least one of us (if not all three) will get out to the grocery store.

So excited for the weekend!

We miss you...

It has been nearly 2 weeks since our last post. We do apologize. It was our intention to write at least a couple times per week when we started this thing. Somehow it just didn't happen last week. We can't even really say that we've been all that busy. Here's a quick recap:

7/5 - Saw "Wall*E" and "Prince Caspian" at the Drive-In (Amy slept through "Prince Caspian")

7/9 - Amy had lunch with a friend at Messiah

7/10 - Had friends (and their puppy) over for a nice dinner

7/11 - Pizza and game night at same friend's house

7/12 - Amy went baby shower shopping with a friend

7/13 - Baby shower at church

7/15 - Our 2nd couples counseling session (don't worry - we're ok!)

7/16 - Amy went to a Mary Kay pedicure party

7/17 - Saw "Get Smart"

And tonight we had dinner and Amy made chocolate drop cookies - yum! We also finally hung some things on the wall in the living room. A friend of ours (see "Ben" blog to your right) takes sensational pictures so we bought two of them to frame. They really make the house feel like home. One picture is a sunset over Messiah College and the other is Peter's former band Pagoda. Good times.

Not much else going on. We're counting the days till our OBX vacation (3 weeks tomorrow!). The kids are doing well. They are interacting more and that usually translates to Kenny chasing Nutmeg all over the house and eventually cornering her under something and staring her down. So far - no blood. All is well.

We'll do our best to keep up with the blogging but we can't promise it will get more exciting. At least you'll get vacation pics next month...
