The Sun Came Up and ...

OMG! My children both woke up early. First Sarina got up about 6am. She likes to do this thing where she lays on me and presses her face onto mine. It is very uncomfortable and leaves me thinking "I"m going to get such bad acne from this." I try to sleep anyway despite the full facial hug. Then long about 6:30 I hear "The sun came up and smiled at me." Oh goody, Ben was awake. What is up with that. All week when he had to go to school neither of them woke before 8am but now that we have a free day and I was looking forward to sleeping in they're both up. Plus it is my work night so I"ll be up late. How do they know? I used to work Wednesday and so he was up early on that morning. I change my schedule and so he does. Coincidence?! I think not.

They were both so full of energy this morning and I was just dragging. I'm not sure who whined more, me or Sarina. At that point I was ready for someone to just kill me. Slow and painful would have been just fine by me as long as I knew it would end because there was no end in sight to their mania. And the lovely thing was that it was pouring rain thus ruining my plans to walk to the park and then to the grocery store before lunch. I suggested Gymfinity but Ben wants to go to Mad Town Twisters. Gymfinity is $7 for two and Mad town is $16 for two. Ummmmm..no way we are going to Mad Town anytime soon. We spent much time discussing the difference in price. His suggestion was that they combine their prices and gyms. A nice idea but not likely to happen soon and I'd still end up paying more. He did not get that. So off to Gymfinity for them to get their energy out.

Sarina was very cute at the gym. They had a very low bar for kids to play on and she liked to flip over it onto her head (gently). She wants to do somersaults already. She cannot however climb a ladder no matter how much I help her. Trying to help her I almost did a somersault myself. Very embarrassing.

I did have one great moment today. I actually packed myself a snack in my new igloo lunch bag. hurrah for me. This is a first. I thought ahead!

And the other great thing about today is that it is nap time. Yeah! And the sun came out.
