I made plans yesterday to take the kids out of the house today! I didn't care what we did, but before this next storm hits tonight, I wanted the kids to have an opportunity to see the outside world at least once! We finally decided to go to a TMOM playdate at Whiteside Community Center. Two days a week, they have what they call "Bikes, Balls, and You" for kids up to 5 years old. They have a big gymnasium with lots of balls and ride on toys for the kiddos to play on! After deciding this is what The Bunch would do, a fellow TMOM mentioned that they may be closed since schools were out for a snow day. I spent all day yesterday trying to call them to find out if they would be doing this event, but nobody answered all day. SO... after deciding the mall was out of the question (since most people would probably have the same "get out of the house" idea as me and it would be crazy crowded), I decided to go to my friend Rachel's house!
Rachel has b/g twins who are almost 2 years old, so my munchkins had a blast. Rachel is great...she's on the TMOM Board with me...it's kinda funny because she is Rachel B... and so am I (betcha didn't know that... LOL)! So we always laugh about the Rachel B's ... "The Rachel B's are here..." "The Rachel B's have decided..." "The Rachel B's were talking about...." I know, I am a dork... but it's fun to have a close friend who is another Rachel B!! Okay, okay...enough with the Rachel B's!!
After hanging out at RACHEL B'S house (haha) we came home and my in-laws were here! So, we had a nice visit with them- hadn't seen them in over a week 'cause of all the snow! When they left, it was nap time. I chose NOT to nap with the kids today and instead, I watched Drop Dead Diva. Have you watched this show at all??? IT'S GREAT! It cracks me up, yet it has the right amount of "serious" too! If you haven't seen it, the first season is available on NetFlix... check it out!!
Tim had to work the late shift today (BOO), so he just got home a little bit ago. I hate that schedule...it just throws MY life schedule off! Oh well, it's only for a short time (I hope)!! Gonna go try to sleep now... and when I wake up, I look forward to that 12 inches of snow they're predicting!! NOT!!! I am NOT looking forward to 12 inches of snow.... I am NOT excited to be stuck inside... I AM really hoping the forecast was wrong this time!! I'll let you know tomorrow!

Oh how delightful that I am the subject feature of your blog! Thank you! We must do this again soon because the kids had an absolute ball! Not to mention, I rarely ever get to just sit and talk on a playdate but for some reason we had six magically well behaved kids letting US enjoy ourselves as much as they enjoyed themselves! And they let me nap as well too! Late this afternoon we headed off to target for our final Outting!
