Productive.

It's 9:06 AM as I start this post. My day started at 6:40. This is what I've done so far:
Fed 2 kids homemade pancakes.
Threw in a load of laundry.
Ate said pancakes.
Dressed 2 kids.
Washed the floor freaky-fast while Olivia watched a 20 min. signing video and tried to prevent Aidan from slipping on the floor. (He ended up in the high chair)
Got the kids set up playing downstairs.
Washed all the windows on the first floor of the house...inside and out. (only to find out that we are having our lawn mowed and leaves blown today....sigh...Jill, make sure your hubby keeps my windows clean!) Made faces and sang songs to Aidan through the open windows as I cleaned the outside.
Vaccummed the living room carpet.
Threw in another load of laundry.
Removed the spots from my living room carpet. (Oxyclean really is amazing.)
Put Aidan up in crib for a little quiet time.
Dusted with the help of Olivia.
12 min. of Clifford as a reward.
Facebook. Blog. Need to rescue Aidan.

What's next? Fold lots of laundry, vaccum the rest of the house, pick up the basement, get guest bedroom ready for company. Lunch, naps, doctor appt. for A, grocery shop, and the Twins game tonight!

Maybe at some point I'll get dressed.

It's now 9:12. Happy Friday!

WOW - you amaze me. I should have you come and help with my windows - or just give me some of your energy!

That is pretty impressive, I couldn't get that much done without kids! : )

You make me sick! Only in the way that I am so impressed by all you accomplished that I got tired just reading it and imagining the accelerated heart rate that you sustained during all of it. Why join the gym when this is the first few hours of your day?! :)

(I'm reading this on Monday after our fun Twins game)

Holy Smokes... I had no idea what kind of productive day you had before our fun event! :)

Ummm, speechless.
I hope that "naps" included you, although I'm quite confidant it didn't! Woah, girl, good work!

Amazing Mothers...nothing new!! We are good at multi tasking and organizing our time. Keeping the homefront ready... Go Ehlan (and have a pedicure!!) :)
