Lorenz's On The Move: Just Another Week

Well, as I look back on this past week, nothing unusual happened. It was a short week because of Memorial Day. There was lots of thunderstorms and rain during the first part of the week. However, leave it to the girls to make the normal anything but normal.

Tuesday will be remembered as a day of infamy. Emma and Sofi broke down and had major meltdowns. None of which we had ever seen before. It was so bad that Jaynee canceled Emma's therapy appointment for the day.

Wednesday began looking like it was going to be a repeat. Emma woke up really early in the morning and did not go to sleep until I left for work. (Thanks for allowing me to take a short nap during the night.) Jaynee then took the girls to the kickoff party for the summer reading program. What was truly amazing was that in less than 35 minutes, the girls got up, dressed, hair done, had breakfast, and traveled on post to the library. Jaynee no longer has an excuse for being late. After that I took the girls out to lunch to celebrate them having a better day than Tuesday.

Thursday, the girls had a play date with some friends. From what I hear they were good little girls. Friday, nothing much happened. Mom went out and had fun with some girl friends of hers and the girls went to bed while daddy worked on homework.

Saturday's plans were to get 1000 things down in a time span that normally 15-20 items should have been completed. Wake up, tear down the back fence, paint it, put it back together, get the girls ready for the day, go shopping on post, drive them to "Parents Day Out", go to Wal-mart, come home, clean out pantry, remove pantry shelves, install newer larger bigger better pantry shelves, clean up mess, take Jaynee out to lunch, go shopping for mechanic gloves, go back to Wal-mart and buy backpacks for the girls, pick girls up, play with girls, clean the house, get ready to drive to Atlanta, drive to Atlanta, pick up Jaynee's parent, drive to Apple store, drive home but stop at another Wal-mart (3 times in 1 day is enough to last an eternity), put Emma down, clean up, try to figure out how to get Sofi to go to bed, get her to bed, get ready for bed, stay up even longer to ensure Sofi is asleep before opening the girls door, and then finally go to bed.

Hope you like some of the pictures. I am still working on getting some videos ready to post, but in the priority of things I need to get done, it is very low at this time.

Mommy, can we go to school check out our new backpacks?
