Let's call it a day

I am exhausted. This was a fast, tiring weekend. Friday night I escaped to Girls Night Out/Nickel Auction for 4 hours. Spence did great with the kids, except that Maddux wouldn't eat and cried with gas most of the time he was awake.

Saturday we busily ran errands, fed the missionaries and finished Visiting Teaching.

Today was cousin Finn's baby blessing. We had to leave the house by 8 am to make it on time. What a way to start off the day: tired and frantic. The blessing was beautiful, the food after was tasty, and the company was fun. After, we went to celebrate cousin Jake's 6th Birthday. The kids always have a good time at Uncle Ty's home. The main annoyance of the day: we forgot the diaper bag. Normally not a big deal, but 9 hours away from home with no supplies for a 3 month old is unnerving. Thanks cousin Finn for giving us some diapers.


Tonight Spence is at a 3 hour stake choir practice for Stake Conference next week. I am fighting off a cold but feeling like I am loosing the battle. I am tired. I am ready to be done. So I announced it was Movie Night!!! Poor kids, little do they know that snuggling up under the covers for a special movie with Mom is the best way to not be an active parent. But we all win. I get some personal time with my laptop, and the kids get to feel loved snuggling up to Mom.

The Winegar kids at their best.
