Typical Day

Some of my favorite blog posts I like to look back and read are the ones just documenting a typical day. So here is another one! This is from Wednesday this week.

Everett and I got up early enough to run to Panera Bread and pick up some bagels for breakfast. We could not locate his Crocs so he decided to wear his rain boots. Rain boots and pajamas. He was a sight.
The babies and I then ate warm bagels at the breakfast table and then headed downstairs to get dress and to play.
Around 9 Eleanor went down for her morning nap and the boys watched Max and Ruby while I mopped upstairs and did some laundry.
After that I gave both boys a haircut. Everett loves getting his haircut because he knows he gets a lollipop.

The after shot. 

And Hampton had just a few wisps of hair that I had to cut, but he had to sit in the chair just like Everett.
 

The boys are such active television watchers. Whenever they are allowed to watch a video they usually stand or run about.

After the home haircuts they had a snack of applesauce and home made cheese crackers.

Once Eleanor woke up we went to the library for story time. 

The boys love playing with the scarves.

Hampton kept getting reprimanded by the story time teacher about running around. I tried to keep on top of that but he was all over the place. 

And Eleanor liked crawling around and saying hi to people.

After story time we went outside to the gazebo for some fresh air before we headed home.
 

And I caught the boys splashing in the bird bath. Boys.

When we got home we had lunch- home made sloppy joe sandwiches. Everett and Eleanor gobbled theirs up, but Hampton threw a huge fit over not wanting his. He went down without lunch and as soon as he got up later in the afternoon, the first word he said was "eat!"

Afternoon snack that day was graham crackers with peanut butter and for a special treat a juice box as well. We then played downstairs until Daddy got home. For dinner we had leftover pasta.
The days can be long and I am exhausted usually by 5:00, but they are rich!
