A day in the life: Sunday-Day 1
Warning: Long post with no pictures! A glimpse into our fun life.
Sunday mornings are great! We get to sleep in until at least 8. Haly got up at 7:30, however and was content to watch cartoons with a cup and cereal while I took a shower. She had a mysterious red patchy rash on her face-she usually gets this when she has ketchup, mustard, ranch, bbq sauce or condiments. So I gave her a little benedryl and Tylenol.
Malachi snoozed until 9 and woke up just in time to get dressed for church. I had laid out his outfit on his bed for him, but he is in a stage where he just likes to pick out his own clothes. He's pretty good about matching, although sometimes I cringe and just let him wear what he wants :) He's obsessed with a certain pair of Spider man water shoes, so that is the only pair he is wearing right now.
I saved Halynd to get dressed for last. She has a way of getting messing even when there really isn't anything to get dirty with. She wore her ladybug top with a pair of jean capris and a pair of cute jelly sandals. I'm growing out her bangs, so her hair was sticking up!
We left early, 9:10, so we could get gas and make it to McDonald's. I've realized lately that I don't really hang out with the kiddos with just me and them to go do fun, memorable things. We went inside to eat after I debated whether to eat in the car or inside the entire drive there. They both wanted parfaits with milk and I grabbed a sausage biscuit with some water. Parfait with Halynd=fail! By the time we left she had managed to get yogurt in her hair, on her dress and all over her hands. We cleaned up and washed our hands and were off to church by 9:40.
Upon arriving to church, I called Donovan so he could help me with the kiddos, and good thing I did because I realized our jeep was smoking under the hood and there was brown foam coming from the bottom~He looked at it briefly and helped me inside with the kids.
After dropping them off in Children's Church....with a little reluctance from Halynd, I sat in on the service. Donovan preached on a new perspective with the Prodigal son. He did a really great job and God really spoke through him. After church was over, we loaded up and headed to the car store-Auto Zone. Donovan went inside with Chi and bought Antifreeze Coolant and a new cap for the radiator resivour while Halynd snoozed in her carseat and I listened to some Owl City.
After making it home, we changed and went over to Donovan's parents house for some lunch. We could definitely get used to having meals made for us :) We had a full belly and came home to crash for a little bit. Malachi wanted to stay with Donovan's parents, so he helped wash the dog and just hung out there while we took a little (2hour) nap.
After said nap, we dropped Halynd off at Donovan's parents house to head to a BBQ at some good friends' house, the Rodriguez's. We had a great time just hanging out and eating burgers-delicious milky way cake-and virgin margaritas :) They had some fireworks and were like middle school boys all giddy while they were shooting them off. We headed home around 10, but didn't get very far. We managed to get about 5 miles away from their house when our check engine light was flashing and there was smoke coming out from the hood again. We pulled into a Walmart and Donovan grabbed some more supplies in hopes of just getting our Liberty home :( No such luck. At 10:40, we called for Donovan's parents and they came to get us. We left the Jeep in a restaurant parking lot. We went by Donovan's parents house and grabbed the kiddos. It was 11:40 by the time we got home and were exhausted. We laid the kids down and just sat up talking until almost 1.
That wraps up our hectic Sunday! I will be taking pictures from now on :)
I'm 19 weeks today :)
