AFTER WORK


- Got home about 10 past 5. My mother-in-law hadn't gotten to my house with the boys yet. Got inside and enjoyed a few minutes of quiet before they got home.

- 5:15: The boys came home. Walker has gotten a couple of Halo playsets and Caden got a chomping alligator. They also have Happy Meals. I settle them in the living room with their food and hop on the computer to make a blog posting. Though keep getting interrupted to go and rescue Walker's meal from Caden who always wants what others have.

- Changed into my PJs.

- Worked on blog posting, but had to take a break to open one of the toys that Walker got from his grandmother. Also Caden needed his diaper changed and then I settled him in the kitchen with a bottle of milk.

- 6:00: Posted Friday, October 23 entry.

- Noise from the kitchen, Caden dropped his bottle. He's finished. Release him from the high chair and let him play on the floor. Go back to the computer and then hear another sound. Go back into the kitchen to find that Caden has learned to open the cabinet doors and has started to pull out all the plastic bowls and storage containers. I was wondering when he'd discover those.

- 6:30: Posted Saturday, October 24 entry.

- Had to help Walker find an "alien" he lost...before Caden found it because it's WAY too little to be found by Caden.

- Picked up all the contents of the diaper bag off the living room floor...as Caden decided it would be fun to pull everything out of the bag.

- Put together the Candle Basket for Octoberfest...in between getting Caden out of trouble and doing things for Walker.



- 7:45: Put Caden to bed and going to try and do a quick Blog post before going back to basket making...

- Posted Parade Day.

- Set Walker up on the computer to watch cartoons.

- Back to baskets. Finished up the Candle Basket and started the Wizard's basket.

- 9:30: Scott got home. He put Walker to bed while finished the Wizard basket. He buzzed around the house packing his car with Fest stuff.



- 10:30: hmmmm....dinner? I take a break from the Adventurer's Basket to make dinner. Scott washed dishes.

- 11:15: Went into the living room to eat on the couch and watch the news...I knew I shouldn't leave the kitchen... After the news we put on the new episode of Clone Wars that aired on Wednesday that neither of had seen yet. I'm pretty sure I fell asleep before it was over...sigh.
