7:30 So last night, Jeremy lookd at the calendar and said, "Did you know Alex is supposed to bring snack to school tomorrow?" Well I knew. I was the one who wrote it on the calendar. I think I even looked at it last Friday. But at 8:30pm last night, I was completely unprepared to feed 12 four year olds. So Adam (stroller), Ariel (bjorn) and I walked to Safeway (Alex stayed home with Daddy) to get a snack.
8:05 Arrive at Safeway. And while we were there, I might as well grab a Starbucks. Today I tried a tall java chip frappachino with 3/4 skinny base and 1/4 regular base and no whipped cream. I'm trying to come up with a drink that tastes good that doesn't completely negate the 4 miles I walk to get it. And apparently Laura went through my blog yesterday to calculate how many Starbucks I've had. So how many is it Laura (and for the record, I'm at 6 of 7 for my 9th free one)? And better yet Laura, how many have you had?
We also picked up some go-gurts and teddy grahams for snack today. No homemade Bree Van Decamp treats today.
8:50 Get home. Jeremy took Alex to school so I could finish up a few things before taking Adam to baby preschool.
9:15 Go to baby preschool.
9:30 Get to Baby preschool. Ariel needed a poopy changed before her bottle. Ariel did not like baby preschool. I think it was too noisy and shrill for her. There were 5 two year olds today, plus their mothers trying to talk over the chaos. I had to keep going in the hall when I was feeding Ariel. After she was done, I had to get her asleep in the bjorn.
Here's a few quick pictures before she completely lost it. Do I recognize this shirt from Laura's 4 month old baby picture??? (Laura has now been mentioned twice, she MUST comment):
And here's Adam, still in his jammies. I didn't have the fight in me today to try and separate him from his beloved Bob shirt.
11:15 After school, we went to the park to meet with the club formally known as MOMS Club. Practically the whole group was there, it was good to see everyone. Ariel slept a bit more in the bjorn. Adam was cold, it's a bit chilly for summer jammie wear today.
12:30 We got back to the preschool, Ariel had another bottle before we had to pick Alex up.
1:20 Get home from preschool, Ariel fell asleep in the car.
1:50 Ariel woke up, hung out in the swing for a bit. The kids and I had a very crafty afternoon. All I can reveal is that 1. my kids were using permanent markers 2. it's for mother's day. (and the only thing that got very marked up was Adam, and I'm sure that will come clean over time).
3:00 Ariel had a bottle. She almost fell asleep while drinking it, but as soon as I put her down in her swing she woke up.
3:30 I put Ariel down in bed since the swing wasn't doing anything. Crissy, I didn't walk her or anything, I just swaddled her, put her down, and put my hand and her and she was asleep in about 2 minutes. I think she just hates your bed!
4:00 Pick up. Becky had to wake her up, after all that trouble I went to get her asleep.

nak - i got a recipt from albertson's the other days that said something about 4 of 9 for a free starbucks drink. does that mean i buy five more starbuckses? or five more what? somebody help this lady get her free starbucks!!!
Hmmm, sounds like you buy 9 starbucks, get the 10th free. So yeah, you only have to buy 5 more drinks until you get a free one. Yay!!!!
I didn't know Albertson's had Starbucks.
Yes, that shirt was Laura's.
Ariel slept the whole way home. Not distraught whatsoever.
Bonnie's, uh, not from around here. Apparently her Albertsons are more exciting :)
Laura Laura Looo, where oh where oh where are you???????
Laura's here!
Of course can you can customise your Starbucks. If you were crazy, you could say something like half vanilla, half mocha or something. It only doesn't work when you get down to the base ingredients - you can't have a soy frap because the base is milk.
Um. I know a lot about Starbucks.
