Over

similar for us... she's 7, we're pretty set on bedtime... she gets her night time/winddown show at 7:30 (lately it's been Mr.Maker) then brush teeth and into bed for 8pm, she gets 10-15 min in bed with a book then the light goes off (she does have a flashlight in her bed if she wants to read a bit more but that's rarely the case) i'll usually hear her talking to teddy or some of her other bed buddies then all quiet... this is only the second time we've done an evening swim.. and i'd ONLY do it on a weekend other then that i can count on my fingers the amount of times she's stayed up past 8:30 (in the last year i think it was once for a evening outdoor screening of frozen last summer, 1 swimming adventure a about two months ago, when the fair was here last spring...and maybe one or two other times in the summer when family stuff was going on)

I should check Target for more chalk! Stock is getting low.

Our store hasn't had many Summer deals. I'm hoping they got some Summer stock in (or out on the floor).

Someone posted a finding nemo pool that I'd love to get.

my stores didn't get in much of the summer stock either.. we got in generic summery toys (water guns and bubbles) but no pools, no bubble machines, no summer sport stuff (inflatables, grass games-badminton, bouncy castles, bocce...)

i'm no longer hopeful for more new product coming in.. i haven't seen them unloading boxes in awhile.. and i've noticed the amount of staff on the floor has diminished significantly

Yeah I haven't found much yet. Really hoping I do! I did find some of the big sand toy sets (bucket with shovels & toys) for cheap but that's been it.

No bubbles, chalk, guns, inflatables, etc.

I'd love to stock up on chalk and do an end of year chalk gift for DD's class. Last year we did Kool-Aid packets.

i did manage bubbles..but i don't think i've seen any chalk this year, i don't even think i've seen any plastic buckets and shovels this year! which is a tad surprising..

i haven't even thought about a end of year thing.. i'd be surprised if anything special happens for the end the year... it will be another chaotic end of the year as they pack up the school for bringing it back over to the original building

This year will be busy so I'm trying to think ahead.

DD has her senior kindergarten graduation. I'm the class parent so I'll be helping with that.

DS has his preschool graduation. They are so stinkin' cute all dressed up at 3 & 4, walking the stage and getting a little diploma.

Alright I better head off. Kids are changing so it'll be story time soon.

morning.. i went to bed insanely early (for me) last night and slept for like 10 hours...

Happy Spring Ahead (time change). :)

Got our taxes done, then a big grocery shop and then went out for lunch.

DH chose Taco Bell. I picked up a taco and got it halfway to my mouth before I realized I can't eat it. I gave up red meat for lent. So I just had fries. Blah.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday!

DH let me sleep in. He took the kids to Church and I got a couple hours of quiet. Bliss! lol
