Good morning everyone. I hope your doing well. =) My husband will be working a very late day since he's working an hour and a half away so it will be me and my boys today. The lady cancelled on me this morning for babysitting, which is fine except I wish she told me sooner and I wish I didn't have to ask to get an answer. Oh well. She says she will be bring "Y" tomorrow-we will see. I already got most of the chores done today, have to do dishes still though. Anyone want to come do them for me? I am planning on giving the babies a bath today as well. Julian will be thrilled, Josiah not so much. Lol. My husband and son both have birthdays this month so when we went to the store last night I ran in by myself and got hubby a present! Nothing big, but it's a watch he has had his eye on for some time now. I stuck it in my purse and he has no idea-score! It's hiding in my hall closet that my husband never goes in-only place I could think of. Other than taking care of my boys I will be Mylotting, cleaning here and there as it needs it, making food and trying to relax a bit. What's your plan for the day?

I'm sure your husband will be very surprised with his new watch and hope he doesn't find it before his birthday. When my son was little he didn't like baths either but as you said, once they realize they can play it's becomes fun. Nothing much planned here for today just the usual daily grind

@Marilynda1225 I hope not either! I think it's in a good place. =) Yeah, Josiah will love it when he's stable enough to sit on his own and play in there. I hope you have a good day!

Josiah doesn't like baths? Does he have bath toys to play with? If not maybe that'll make him enjoy them? Glad Julian does though. And hope you have a good day together.

@Courtlynn He can't sit up steadily enough on his own in a bath tub yet so he doesn't like it. Julian loves his baths because he loves playing in the water.

@Courtlynn No, he can sit up on his own but not in the tub with how slippery it is.

My house is busier than usual today. I'm not yet sure what we're doing for dinner, as I've got more people in the house (and picky ones too) than I expected for tonight.

@LovingMyBabies Looking through the freezer, I might have enough ingredients to make a tater tot casserole. It's not the healthiest thing ever, but I don't think anyone will strongly object to it. That will give me a little buffer so I can figure out some groceries for the rest of the week.

I worked. One child has had meltdowns all week. She does not sleep at night and has gotten progressively worse all week. I have dreams about this child. I have some stomach issues which I believe are from anxiety over both work and hubby's medical situation.

I love to get things for people I know they will be excited about. I hate it when I have no idea what to get. Have a good day.

@celticeagle Yeah, my husband is usually hard to shop for but I knew he has been wanting a new watch so that made things easier on me. Lol.

@marlina Thanks, he never goes in there (it's where the broom and dust pan are ) so I figure it should work. =)

I hope Johnny really likes the watch! That will be a nice birthday present! And it's always so much nicer when you can completely catch them by surprise and that they have no idea what they'll be getting. That's especially hard when shopping for men! haha Hope you have a great day!
