This morning Avery took a big swig of her orange juice and yelled, "NUMMYYYYY"!! I had to take a photo of this face! Priceless! right?!
Like most of you mama's out there, I need routine! Even if I end up staying in my pi's all day, I need structure to my day. It just makes for a happier mama, and a happy mama means happy babies! We as mommies live minute to minute serving our children and squeezing in just a few minutes of our own to take a bite of frozen pizza or a sip of cold coffee, or God forbid we have to use the bathroom!!?
Routine is what I need and what I crave, but a lot of the time routine is mundane and boring! am I right?
Monday's are different. On Monday's we pick Mimi up and head to our library! Almost every monday we come to the library to buy 10 cent books and 50 cent movies from the Friend's store. Little Ms. Marillyn works on Monday's and she has become a part of our library adventure. She loves the girls and always has them sit on her lap while she reads them a book or talks with them about their day! The other day as we were leaving, Ms. Marilynn says, "I always enjoy monday's when I get to see you and the kids!"
It's been about 2 years now (since Avery was born) that we have made the local library our monday hot spot...and I'll tell you what, sometimes I loathe routine and wish for an adventure but it's on Monday's that I find a blessing in the routine! Here's a challenge for you all: Be a regular somewhere! You'll be surprised how exciting it can be to have a routine!
