Today I had to do the following things: (1) Go to a dermatologist appointment to have them look at a funny freckle and possibly cut it out, (2) get Bookie to the dentist, (3) do my ChaLean Extreme workout, (4) contact some journalists, return emails, mostly just work, (5) wrap presents and (6) attend a family birthday party.
So I had over 100 emails when I woke up this morning. (Oh, and a side note...my husband left early this morning because they had a special project going at work. Usually he helps me in the morning getting the kids together and making my coffee, but this morning, no help.) And and one other thing as a side note for those of you who are following the sleep training saga with Mr. Grumpy Pants...my babies were ANGELS! I couldn't believe it! Bookie work up this morning and said, "Mommy, I'm really happy!" Why, I said. "Because I really like it when (Mr. Grumpy Pants) sleeps in my room." Ahhhhhhhh, my heart is beaming.
So back to the 100 emails with my son downstairs with me. He didn't want to watch the "babysitter" for an hour while I drink my coffee...I'm thinking uh oh...he's going to need me to help him with something before I had my coffee. Damm! Well, at least the baby wasn't up yet. "Mommy, I want to go outside!" I'm thinking, oh goodie!....then, the questions..."mommy, can you open the sandbox?"...."mommy, where is Mr. Gumpy Pants?" (he was still sleeping)...."Mommy, when we wake up Mr. Grumpy Pants can I say, 'wake up lazy bones?'" My 100 emails are never going to get looked at. Then Mr. Grumpy Pants wakes up and we ran upstairs to get him...Bookie says, "wake up lazy bones!"...Some how I sent out two majorly important emails.
Flash forward...my mom comes and I run upstairs to get a shower...can you believe it I got to shower!!?? Ran downstairs 10 minutes later...yeah, I'm fast...got the baby ready...packed two diaper bags--one for me and Mr. Grumpy Pants and for my mom and Bookie...inhaled breakfast and made some for Bookie...nursed the baby and then ran out of the house with the baby to go to my Dermatologist appointment. Got there, saw the doctor...had something cut out of my shoulder and sent to the lab. Then I ran out to the parking lot with the baby and drove to the dentist so I could be there for my son to see the dentist. Drove both kids home while my mom went to Sharkey's to pick up lunch. Then ate lunch, cleaned up the house, nursed the baby, forced some food down Bookie's throat, cleaned up another mess, took Bookie upstairs for his nap, then nursed the baby again, put him down for a nap, changed into my workout clothes, and then I listened to him cry for 5 minutes while I started my ChaLean Extreme workout. Now I've finished my workout and am sweating...I'm not planning on taking another shower...but don't tell anyone...I've got to wrap some presents and then get the kids ready to go to their cousin's birthday party at 5pm.
What a day....
Oh, I got there in time to snap this picture of Bookie at the Dentist.
But no, I haven't gotten through all 100 emails yet...

Glad to hear I am not the only one that might skip a shower after a sweaty workout!! :)
OMG you are cracking me up! I have days like that too! wait till the kids start playing sports!
@Matt--most mornings I don't even get a shower...have to wait till after my workout...now what is more disgusting? Going two days without a shower or just not showering after a workout?
@craftymamaof4--I'm sure you understand...you have 4...I only have 2. I see my cousin chauffeuring her 3 kids to activities and my head spins!
Sounds like most typical days that moms go through =).
but it's all worth it right =)!
btw--one thing I have to do is shower. even if it's a few quick minutes. I HAVE to shower.
and good for you for being so committed w/working out! i really admire that!
