Day 247

It's been a busy last few days, the first of the month always is and then adding in working and still getting the school routine thing down my brain is struggling to catch up! Went to a swap Saturday night and found some stuff for the kids and a nice pair of gray sweatpants for me. Freyjas favorite find was the Ponyo doll, Jax got a puppy phone that can record a message and play it back for him. Took mom grocery shopping on Sunday without the kids, we enjoyed breakfast at Waffle House and managed to get ol all of our shopping done with out either of us whining or getting time outs! Monday Nicole and I took the kids to the zoo in Gulf Shores. It was Jaxs first real time going to a zoo, he got to pet a kangaroo and feed some animals. Both of the girls LOVED the zoo as well. It was well worth the extra traveling distance to go! Today Jax and I went to Old Navy to return Freyjas peacock dress because the sequins started falling off after one wash. I had called home office about it and they sent me a $15 gc for calling it in. THey were out of the dress at my store because it was clearanced but surprisingly a Mobile store had it and is sending me a new dress!! I received my full refund for the dress and was able to purchase the new one at the discounted price ($5 vs $20). While there, I found Freyja two much needed little camisoles (one black, one white) to wear under some of her looser necked items and bought Jax his Halloween costume, a gorgeous green dragon costume with green iridescent wings. After work I went up to the hospital and saw my friend Lisa, she had baby boy #2 last night. Hes soooooo much smaller than either of mine were!! But I've had my baby fix now until the next friend has one! No more for me but I'm not above visiting and stealing someone else's for a few minutes!! Only a few more days of work and I am done for rush!! Yay!!!
