I had quite a day yesterday, I called Lisa to tell her about it yesterday and today mentioned that I still hadn't posted my picture for my awesome 100 days of destruction album on facebook, and she had a great idea, she said i should blog about my day, cause it was a day! so here goes, if anyone wants to trade places with me for a few hours or even a whole day after reading this please let me know!!

**all times are approximate, cause we all know there is no way i would actually remember these times a day later!!
5am - drag my butt out of bed to go do my 1st yoga class
5:15am - it was misty out so the whole way there i kept having to wipe away the mist off the windows but it just kept smearing it, so it was all blurry, which sucked anyway but considering i was hella tired and kept rubbing my eyes, it was not a fun trip
5:30am - yoga class starts
5:50am - i am enjoying yoga but trying to figure out how have my hands stop sweating so they will stop sliding on the yoga mat, making me afraid im gonna fall
6:25am - i thought the yoga class was supposed to end, but i was wrong, it had 10 more minutes, but it was a nice peaceful ending of laying in the dark stretching your back while listening to peaceful music and no kids asking for anything or screaming, so while i know i need to leave to get home i stayed a bit longer
6:40am - of course there is traffic near brodie lane already, great!
6:50am - get home, find logan still sound asleep, crap!
7:15am - after looking at multiple shirts, shorts, pull-ups and socks logan is dressed but is refusing to put on shoes and we need to leave like NOW to get to school on time
7:40am - finally drop him off at school, 5 minutes to spare, yay!!
8am - get home, give amelia a sausage and fruit bar to snack on as i make a batch of belgian waffles (always make extra to freeze).
8:10am - lisa texts me asking whats up for the day, i of course return the text with a call cause its just easier to call in the morning. while chatting i mention im making waffles, then nora says she wants some waffles and to see amelia (which is amazing by the way, i thought nora could pretty much only say the word up). i tell lisa to let me finish the batch and we will come over and bring her some of my delicious waffles and play
10am - the girls are playing with nora's play kitchen and it falls on top of nora, and near amelia, which makes amelia scream bloody murder for no reason (nora had a reason for crying)
10:20am - it seems both girls are scarred for life about the kitchen falling and they just wont stop crying or just being whiny, we decide its nap time already
10:25am - i load amelia in the car to go pickup logan from school
10:45am - logan gets in the car very happy, i make the mistake of asking him if he played on the slide with one of his classmates, he thinks this means he gets to go to therapy and "play the slide, the swing", so when we turn towards the house and not the clinic he starts screaming.
10:50am - we get home, logan has managed to take his shoes and socks off in that very short trip
10:55am - as i am trying to get amelia into the house (still asleep) logan decides to grab an empty glass baby food jar that was in the bag of stuff from lisa's house and drop it as soon as we get inside the house, onto ceramic tile, where it shatters with him standing there barefoot, and it wakes up amelia, and i tell logan not to move so he of course moves, so i pick him up (still trying to get amelia back to sleep) and take him to safety, run amelia upstairs (hoping he does not go back to the pieces of broken glass by the door)
11am - logan removes the band aid that was on his infected toe (that i had discovered the day before) and comes to me asking for new medicine and band aid. so i do what he says, cause its a good request after all. i also finally get to shower without amelia emptying all the cabinets (since she was asleep), it was nice.
11:15am - logan once again removes the band aid and wants a new one, i tell him no
11:20am - logan comes to me with the medicine and a giant band aid (cause i was stupid and left them on the bathroom counter). i give in and get a normal sized band aid and replace it, but tell him no more until bedtime. i wait till he can no longer see me and put the medicine and band aids up high in a cabinet.
12:30pm - hear logan playing in the water dispenser of the fridge, find a few small cups full of water, a small spill on the table, some water on the floor and in the fridge. really wish he didnt know how to use that thing. then realize i had left the oven on at 425 for the past hour i eat the rest of logan's cold french fries, cause evidently yoga makes me hungry and my sandwich was not enough for my lunch (oh, and i turn off the oven)
1pm - logan wants to play outside, so i let him, i take pictures of him through the glass back door of him sitting and climbing on the deck railing eating out of the costco size container of peanuts. he smiles, it was a nice moment.
1:30pm - amelia and i play in the living room when logan opens the back door and comes inside, leaving it open of course, so amelia tries to walk outside. as i follow her i notice that he had taken the entire jug of peanuts and dropped them on the table and deck. jaska also notices and runs outside to try and eat them all, logan starts yelling at jaska (he really yells at her, its loud). i try to get jaska away so i can pick up the peanuts (trying to save them, we just got the container on sunday). as i keep asking logan to help me (and he ignores me with every fiber of his being) amelia starts trying to eat the peanuts off the deck. i cant have that so i run inside and grab the bag of goldfish for her. she eats a few and then starts throwing them on the deck, jaska really wants the goldfish, logan starts yelling even louder. then amelia tries to walk off the deck, logan is still ignoring me. i put amelia inside (screaming), get logan inside, attempt for about 3 minutes to get jaska inside, finally do it. i close the door and sit outside watching a rain cloud hover and try to save as many peanuts as possible and then clean up the ones i cant.
1:50pm - i go inside and find the baby gate at the bottom of the stairs open and no children on the lower floor of the house, crap! i run as fast as possible the 12 feet to the stairs and find amelia on the 2nd to the top stair. i run up those stairs faster than i ever have. i get her to safety and close the top of the stairs baby gate and go looking for logan.
2pm - i walk into my bedroom to discover that logan had found the hidden medicine and band aids. he took my entire medicine basket that is in the cabinet above the sink and emptied it on the bed, found the triple antibiotic ointment and removed the cap and squeezed about half the bottle on the basket and the carpeted floor under the bed. he did manage to once again find a huge band aid but not the entire container cause those were just a little bit too high for him to reach.
2:05pm - i gather up all the medicine and use about 10 baby wipes to clean up all the medicine that he squeezed out, i spend a bit looking for the cap, no luck, i give up (still havent found it btw)
2:20pm - i tell logan that he needs to be good or we arent going to tumbling later and that he also needs to eat a bit, both messages go unheard. also discover he had pooped and it got on his shorts, well we needed to change for tumbling anyway.
3:10pm - we have 20 minutes to be in the car for tumbling, the process of leaving is always so hard. also i am feeling the yoga i did this morning, i used some new to me muscles this morning.
3:30pm - still trying to get logan's shoes on, come on!!!
4pm - we get to tumbling, logan is happy but isnt really participating, when everyone is warming up he is just sitting there staring off in space either picking his nose or biting his nails.
4:05pm - amelia is already tired of sitting still already, its gonna be a long 35 minutes
4:40pm - we finish, logan is happy with his sticker, we head home (btw, this is trip #2 to the YMCA for me today)
5:10pm - we get home, amelia is super tired but i dont really want her to take a nap right now, but she wont stop screaming every time i put her down, so in her crib she goes. logan is asleep, i really didnt want him asleep but it would give me time to make dinner and get ready for tonight, so i once again let something slide.
5:15pm - logan pops up behind me talking about curious george wide awake, guess he wasnt tired after all
5:30pm - amelia is just sitting in her crib laughing and babbling and playing with her glo-worm, so we take her out to eat dinner
6pm - we eat dinner. or we try to eat dinner, amelia spends the majority of it screaming. so i quickly eat and then hold her to try and get her to calm down and eat a bit. she gets mad and gets food on my shirt that i was gonna wear to cardio funk later, but i dont have another clean one, so guess ill have some food on my shirt for trip #3 to the Y. thats right, 3 trips to the Y for me today, fun huh.
6:20pm - get amelia in her pjs and put her in bed, yes, this early, she was tired
6:30pm - leave for cardio funk, logan wants to come with me, he cant, makes me a bit sad
7pm - get to cardio funk, its a small crowd (yay), but its in the always hot room, its was so hot, i was like as red as a really red tomato, plus feeling even more of my yoga pain. had to walk out for a bit to splash some cold water on my face, it was bad.
8:20pm - get home, get logan in pjs, offer to read some curious george with him but he just wants to watch it instead, thats fine, im tired. go into the bathroom to put on my pjs and find that he was playing with water in the bathroom sink and the mat under the sink was just saturated with water. nice buddy, nice.
8:30pm - throw away any food thats still sitting out on the table, counter or high chair. otherwise i leave the kitchen and house a mess. dishes everywhere, toys everywhere, clothes everywhere, basically anywhere you step you will step on something. im learning to let it go.
8:45pm - watch some "breaking amish" with ian, its full of drama, good for a laugh, it was a nice way to end the evening
10pm - cant keep my eyes open, head to bed and hope i dont feel so much of this yoga pain tomorrow!!!
holy crap, this is long!!! yay for you if you hung in there with me :)
