Busy Week (aka Gosh I'm Tired)

It's been a busy week. I am hosting a Halloween potluck for the local area adopters on Saturday night and I have spent this week buying things for the party, straightening up the house, putting out Halloween decorations, etc. While doing that, I am taking care of my sweet, crazy Briana. The little 150 mile an hour whirlwind that is the center of my life.

Tuesday morning, we headed over to story time and met up with Angela and Laney and Amy and Mary. We all grabbed our usual lunch afterward. Amy had to leave to pick up her son from school, so Angela and I took the girls to the playground in Angela's neighborhood. Briana was crazy about the swing, so I pushed her for a good thirty minutes or more. Before Amy left to pick up her son, she told me that she, Mary and Garrett were meeting a friend at the playground in our neighborhood around 4 and that I should come by. That was perfect because Briana would be up from her nap. So, we did that too. Of course Briana was swing crazy again, so another 20 to 25 minutes of mama pushing a swing. Two playgrounds in one day. Now remember, Briana is my daughter. She is fearless and reckless when at play. I must watch her like a hawk the whole entire time. The day was very enjoyable, but not relaxing...

Of course, we went to gymnastics class today, where I chased Briana all around the gymnasium for close to an hour. I try to make sure that she doesn't hurt herself. Well, that doesn't always work if you remember the throwing up incident from two weeks ago.

And this rainy and cold day isn't helping any. I just want to curl up on my couch and take a nap. I should have napped while Briana did, but I didn't. Bad me.

I am looking so forward to tomorrow night. I hope everyone has a really good time. Of course I will have pics up early next week. Have a great weekend!

First off - love the sensory ball!!! And you know why, too. Second, Briana has the cutest little Halloween outfits. I'm a bad momma - I buy holiday clothes about as often as I purchase headbands.

Can't wait for tomorrow night, it should be a good grin! I feel your tiredness and I too should be smart enough to nap during Maisie's nap but it never seems to happen.

Sounds like you have been busy. Looking forward to tomorrow night and seeing all the little ones dressed up! I felt the same way taking Chani to her class today in the rain. Yucky, yucky and more yucky.
