Good morning! Our weekend was full, fun, and relaxing. I didn't get everything done that I had planned, but, it was still a good weekend.
We woke up Friday and it was Xander's special day. It started much like I predicted, just like Sterling's day. The sun was hot and the water felt so nice.
Luckily, he did all of his chores after we were back home and changed the day. He had a plan to beat me in a game of WWE. His favorite! We played three rounds. He won twice and I took him down once.
After our WWE match, I registered our home school. It's official, we're homeschooling!
Sterling and I took down her bed she was borrowing from Xander so I could put together her new bed. She was so cute and appreciative. Just so giddy and kept hugging me saying "thank you". The sweetest!
After dinner, we headed out for our nightly walk now that we can do them again.
Then, we headed to the pet store to see if there were any dogs. There wasn't, but there were some playful kitties. I'm not interested in getting a cat, so I'll just take them to the store when they need their cat fix.
On Saturday, we ran errands and had lunch at Chili's. Later that night I worked in the school room. I'm not done. It's taking longer than I thought, but I just need to dedicate a day to it. Maybe this week?
I made the kids a list of things they need to do daily in order to have screen time. Xander has been really good at doing his, but, Sterling has not. So, I decided to ask them what chores they think they could do everyday.
Here's what they came up with
The kids and I were busy getting the bedrooms in order. They are done (well, except for my closet).
The played all day until 3 and then we got to work on their rooms. The bins are sorted, the shelves are up and stocked, and their rooms are cozy again. I did end up taking out 5 totes of toys. Toys that I don't want to get rid of, but stuff that doesn't need to be in their rooms either. I also threw out a 2 bags of broken and missing toys and tons of scrap paper tossed in their toy bins. I'm glad this is behind me. Now, how long will they keep it right?!
Sterling loves putting her toys in setups
After I took this picture, I put all the dolls that were on top of the shelf in the empty cubby.
Xander loves setups too. He's usually really good at putting his toys in the correct bins, but, he does not like putting the toys away.
Hoping this week will be happy and as productive as the weekend!
Have a great day!
