Trip to the Mall

Hey readers.  It may seem like I am writing about nothing some days but I'm really going to try to post at least something every day.  I usually only get on my blog in the afternoon when the kids are napping, or at night after they go to bed and before I go to bed.  So needless to say there isn't a lot of time.  But today I want to tell you what we did this morning.

It was really a typical morning in our house.  We get up with the sun (around 8am), we eat breakfast, watch a few morning cartoons, go wild and crazy in the house, and then mommy decides that she HAS to get the kids OUT before they drive her CRAZY.  LOL so today's place of choice was the mall.  I know what you're thinking...the kids were crazy at home so you take them out to the mall and you think that is going to help?  Well you're right...they were just as crazy there.  First thing we did was eat lunch at Chick Fila (the only fast food chain that will forever have my loyalty).  There is a play area next to the food court (score), a Starbucks close by for mommy (double score), and a train that runs the entire length of the first floor that I can send my 3 year old running after.  The 16 month old would walk after it too, but she gets distracted too easily, so I usually just ride her in the stroller.  After chasing the train, we go in the puppy store and torment the puppies through the window (have you ever seen a small child play with a puppy?  Heart.  Melt.)  By that time it's just about naptime, so we load 'em up in the car, come home, and now the kids are sleeping.  Like angels.

That's life in the fast lane.  Not too terribly exciting...though I'm feeling a bit wound at the moment.  Must be that Pumpkin Spice Latte I had at Starbucks (YUM).  Time to go do something...laundry perhaps?  Hmm looks like I need to bring it in off the line before the post-hurricane-Isaac winds hit us here in SW Ohio.  Until next time, friends.
