This post officially marks 4 years of doing 12 X 12's! I started WAY BACK in February of 2009, and have not missed a month. To look back at my first post, click here. You may notice that I had 9 comments on that post! I fondly remember the days of 10-20 comments.
Anyway......After breakfast Sadie generally steals my phone and either plays games, take pictures, or makes videos.
Lunch making! This time it was macaroni and cheese for both Megan and Jackson:
I am not pregnant (and there is no chance I am). But when I am pregnant I crave green Tums like crazy! Seriously. Until I deliver they are the only things I want. So imagine my surprise when the craving for them came back 3 months ago. I'm obsessed.
Soon after satisfying my craving, I received a call from Megan that she had left her lunch in the Warner Bus (the nickname for the carpool van). Which meant a trip to the van and then to the school for me and Sade.
Then it was off to the gym! It is wonderful that they offer childcare, and wonderful that Sadie likes it. I have been going to the gym FAIRLY consistently, but tend to lose motivation if I do not have a friend work-out partner.
After the gym Sade and I did a little grocery shopping at Smith's. I am a Smith's fan, but it physically pains me to pay dollars more for items (i.e. cereal, bread, nuts, produce) that I know I can get cheaper. However, strangely, their orange juice is always a great buy! At $2.68 a gallon it was crazy cheap yesterday.
Upon arriving home we discovered Tucker was out of water. We promptly refilled it and then watched him drink for at least a solid minute.
Sade convinced me to buy her this large donut from Smith's for lunch yesterday.
Although it isn't my week to drive carpool I did have to pick Megan and her friend up from play practice around 4:15. In this picture she is telling her friend to "Just act normal and ignore me." She is not overly fond of me taking pictures on the 12th.
For dinner I made the Balsamic Roast (found on Pinterest) and Sadie and I also made some bread:
After dinner, Sade made some more videos on my phone, and then sat on the couch and belly laughed hysterically each time she watched them.
Eric was working late, so the kids and I spent the night doing homework, getting ready for the next day, watching T.V., playing games, and working on the Candy Grams they intended to buy for their friends:
Viva 12 X 12's!
