Knee Holders

Today when I was dropping Cameron off for school, I asked him if he wanted me to sign him up for soccer.  He said, "Yes.  Don't forget to get me knee holders.  I need four pairs.  2 for my knees and 2 for my arms.  They will make me run faster and I won't get hurt when I fall down."

Wow!  I like that "knee holders."  I couldn't tell him that they are called shin guards.  And, I'm not sure what the arm holders actually do.  Maybe he means elbow pads.  He is going to look pretty funny out on the soccer field!

Last night, we had an awful night of sleep.  I should have known early that it was going to be a rough night.  Cameron was exhausted and fell asleep on the floor.

I managed to get him changed and into bed.  

Shortly after that, Emmersyn had fallen asleep drinking her bottle next to Cameron.  She fell asleep for approximately 20 minutes, and was up the rest of the night!  So exhausting.  She wanted a diaper change, wanted another bottle, needed a different pacy....you name it, she needed it.  She finally fell back asleep around 6:15 this morning when I went down for my run!  Needless to say, I was exhausted, and after I dropped the kids off to school, I took a nap before it was off to work!

Then the treadmill was delivered into the garage.  It was huge!  How was this 400 pound beast going to get downstairs????

Then we picked up Emmersyn from school.  She was a bit disturbed when Mohamed picked her up because Ms. Alessa tried to put her initials on her pacy and she evidently freaked out.  Ms. Alessa then decided to put a sticker over Emmersyn's initials to stop the freak out.  When she got home she showed me the pacy with the sticker, took off the sticker, and made me wash off the initials.  She no longer will use this pacy....Maybe we should initial all of her pacys....that will be an easy way to wean her from these crazy soothers!

She was sooooo tired after school.  I'm trying to get a picture of all of us in the blog every day.  So, here I wanted a picture with Emmersyn.  Doesn't she resemble me?????

My treadmill waiting to be put together.....

Rather than cooking tonight, we decided to head out to dinner.

I needed to get Mohamed into the blog.  So, here he is hanging out with Emmersyn over dinner.

I made it into another picture with Cameron.

And, I was shocked to see my treadmill put together when I returned home from work.  I was sooooo excited.  The treadmill is so cool.  Mohamed had one of his friends come by to help him bring it downstairs.

I can't wait to try it out tomorrow!

I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow.

I'm tired.  Hopefully we'll get some better sleep tonight!  Until tomorrow!
