Rundown

I'll I have to say is today started off with a bang! Last night I had gotten out the children's motrin and got lost into doing others things. The bottle was left open on the counter and I went to bed not thinking anything about it since I normally am the one who gets Weston out of his crib in the morning. Long story short, I was making my bed and heard some noise in the kitchen. I went in there to see what was going on and all I heard was a "ahahhh" (much like when you take a good drink from a glass that is refreshing) My first thought was oh, crap he drank the entire (well what was left from the bottle) thing all gone! I immediately called Doug and he gave me the number to poison control. I felt like such a terrible mother. Who leaves a bottle of medicine open on the counter?? Duhh!! I am happy to say that the girl at poison control said, it is pretty safe and he would of had to drink almost the entire thing (about 18tsp.) in order for any harm to be done. She also said that he may just be fussy due to an upset stomach from it. That was a big relief. Well, with that said Weston also got some of his 12-18 month shots today three in the thigh. Poor guy! At least I didn't have to worry about giving him any medication I think he already had enough on board to last him a while.

After our doctor appt. I was on to V.T. Yes, I said visiting teaching. I think that it is a miracle since I haven't been since May! I do have to make sure I visit this one in particular she happens to be our Relief Society President and babysitter Laura's mom. I told her she assigned me to her for that reason. She just said, well I have to have someone fun visit me. Yeah right! Despite my grumbling, I was glad I went in the long run. I had forgotten how nice it is to chit chat with people you really don't see that often. I also went to a R.S. lunch in today at the church and was pretty enjoyable. It reminded me that I really should attend more enrichment activities. I have really taken a hiatus since being released from enrichment leader.

Today flew by and I felt like I didn't have time to really accomplish much. I did however get some case logs done for Doug when the boys were sleeping. I have to say I am exhausted because once the kids got home it was non-stop. Taylor had achievement days and then she started her tumbling class. So I was a taxi today and well, I guess will be from here on out. As long as my kids are having fun doing their extra activities I can't complain.


I had to post this picture which was actually taken yesterday. I tried to get an action photo of them playing, but it didn't quite turn out. It's moments like this that I love being a mom! They were being so cute playing in the laundry basket. Priceless!!
