Saturday February 4

Madi went babysitting this morning for our new neighbors and she had such a fun time.

They are some sweet little girls :)

The rest of us here at home got to work on Saturday morning chores.

Easily becoming a favorite day for me.

I just love when every room in the house is actually clean!!!!!

(Not counting the basement, yet!)

After lunch, the girls and I went over to the Young's house to make a Valentines craft.

Some way cute LOVE blocks.....

I meant to get an 'after' picture.

Elsie loved painting her own blocks.

She did a great job!

Dad and Port played some Nintendo together and also built circuits together with one of Port's kits.

I got all the laundry done.

I have come up with a system, and I think it will work.

On Saturdays, the kids bring their laundry downstairs, sort them into the right baskets (I help the little kids).

Then they take their clean stuff (from last Saturday) back up with them and put it away.

Then through the day, I get the laundry done and sorted and in baskets, waiting to be put away next Saturday.

Not a perfect method, but I have found that it is just the method we needed for our family to actually get the laundry done and not in mounds and piles on the floors!

Cassi needed to get some running shoes, and Port was desperate to get himself a Falcons t shirt for tomorrows big game.

So we decided to all go out as a family.

We ate dinner at Chick-Fil-A.

Then dad dropped Madi, Elsie and I at Plato's closet while Port and Cassi went with Dad to Big 5.

They found some shoes.....Cassi AND Port :)

But no Falcons t-shirt.

We got some fun finds at Plato's, so that was great.

Then we went to Walmart, thinking maybe they had some super bowl stuff.

Instead we got a black t-shirt and some iron on paper.

Port found the pictures and he wanted the number of Matt Ryan, and he told me what he wanted and where to put it.

He did a pretty good job :)

Little Elsie bug crashed hard tonight.

She was up at 3 a.m. this morning.

It was pretty ridiculous!

There was no way I was going to stay up, so I put 'Finding Dory' on for her and went back to bed.

At about 5 I woke back up to check on her and put on an American Girl movie for her.

Then i was back to bed.

I got up at 7 to wake Madi up to babysit and to workout.

She came with me to workout and watched 'Zootopia'.

I have no idea how she survived the day.

And she wasn't overly emotional or anything.

CRAZY!!!!

I told her she needs to NOT do that again!!!!!
