Today was a hard one to say the least. I don't know if it was the fact that we stayed in (except to drop off food by someone and to drop off library books) all day, or the heat or I dunno. But it was the first HARD day of these 10 days.
I woke up later than usual at around 9. My oldest, thank G-d gives everyone their breakfast and took the baby out of her bed and gave her a bottle and something to eat too.
I get downstairs and start on the food I have to make for two lovely mom's who just had babies. I wanted to get it done and out of the way early, and with the help of the kids I did it. One huge batch of corn salad, a kugel, chicken and chocolate moose.
The kids helped with all the food, but I think somewhere along the line, everyoen got hot, tired, cranky and hungry because at around 12:30 all h*ll came loose.
There were some time outs given, and some crying, yes- and a few time outs for mommy too. hubby walked in late, so it was an extra hour with them today.
We didnt have any structured routine today, but thats ok. We did make it out to the pool and afterwards we all made challah together. we had some reading time on the floor and some hide and seek, but overal was a harder than usual day stuck in the house- way too hot for this early in the summer
Here's to a good week ahead, week #3 of 10!
