Update Day 21: Sunday 7.10.11

Another day in paradise! Woke up this morning to find a 2 year old sitting next to the bed coloring on herself with a black Sharpie. Arms, legs, hands, face, diaper, night gown, everything was covered in black ink. Awesome. Still nursing a sick kiddo so we played hooky from church and hung at home this morning. I took advantage of the time and hit the treadmill early. Felt good. Then took two giant steps backwards by having a bacon cheese burger, tots and a large Diet Coke from Sonic for lunch. Think they will cancel each other out??

Ugggggg, weekends are hard. Started the day at 6am on a Saturday waking up to a crying 6 year old with a tummy ache. Spent the day playing nurse to one child while simultaneously being a jungle gym for the other.
