What a day!

I missed going to the gym again! I totally slept through Emily's phone call. I have not been sleeping good lately! UGH! Paige came and picked me up and we went to Nordstrom Rack for some shopping. Paige & I were so excited to only have 3 kiddos with us and that we could drive together again. They did pretty good for most of the time then we were looking at pj's and so we thought we could let them out to play right by us. All three of them were racing back & forth from where Paige and I were standing. All of a sudden they were gone! They were running through out the store and thought it was sooooo funny! After that we still went to the mall brave I know-HA!

We were going to let them go play but they were being so good sitting in their strollers we thought we could stop by one store first. Carter started whining as soon as we walked in. I found some really cute tops at Guess I had credit there from Christmas! Paige & I gave them lip gloss and chap stick to play with to keep them occupied. The kids did great until we went to check out and Kennedi started crying then Landon chimed in. By the time we were out the door all 3 were crying!-Fun times!! We stopped for snacks that's when I realized why Carter was so sad he had rubbed his chap stick in his eyes. Poor guy he was so sad! We were almost out the door to our car when Kennedi has a MAJOR & Embarrassing melt down! I wish I had my camera we were a mess!

We headed to go pick up Sydney & Carys from pre-school then we went to MacDonald's to get some lunch and let the kiddos RUN! And, something happened for the first time for me I got to climb up the play set to rescue Kennedi. Ah fun! I was happy to see it was pretty clean up there. We had a fun and tiring day! It was great and even with the stressful times I would do it again! It's always fun to do fun stuff with sisters!
Hope everyone is having a fun Thursday!

That is quite the day! Good for you guys! And I am impressed that you climbed up there. I always make my bigger kids go to save the little ones!

Oh yes, nothing like climbing up the tube slide the wrong way to pull a kid out by the ankles - can't say how many times I had to do that when I was teaching sp.ed. (Not pretty, especially since I'm not Young and Not thin.)

What a day! Aren't the meltdowns in public sooo fun?! Brave girls to try and do some shopping. Hey, I saw your parents tonight! I didn't think they would remember me so I didn't say hi, but I saw them at the game.
