A growing trend within the blogosphere is posting twelve pictures of your day on the twelfth of the month. I had a camera-phone for the first part of the day, so the pictures aren't quite as good quality, but it should be fun. Let's go
This is obviously my alarm clock. I actually woke up at about 6:14 this morning, after a few smacks on the snooze bar, but it was at 6:30 that I remembered I wanted to do 12 on 12 this month. This is actually a little earlier than I normally get up, but I was in bed earlier last night so I felt ready to get going.
First thing I did, and usually do, is go to the computer in the office/nursery. I check my Bloglines software for updates to the dozens of blogs I follow and dump all the new episodes of my subscribed podcasts that have come in over the night into my iPod.
All the clicking and typing caused Andrew to start stirring. I went over to his crib and changed him and just dwelt in his happiness, glee, and joy for a few minutes. He read a few of the blogs with me but when he started drooling on my hand and tried to eat the mouse, I took him in for his Breakfast in Bed.
I then went and did the dishes from last night and made myself some breakfast. Instant oatmeal, a leftover doughgod, and milk.
Daniel is always the next one up. He usually gets up around 7:00am when I am about ready to head out for work. If I leave early enough, I can get in a bit of a workout in the weight room, but more often than not, I end up hanging out with the boys for an extra half an hour and then just heading straight to work.
Josh usually gets up either just before or just after I leave. This morning I got to cuddle with him for a bit in his bed before he went and watched cartoons with Daniel.
These two are of my drive in to work. There was a semi that flipped over on Deerfoot this morning and blocked up traffic in both directions for miles. Good thing I got going a little early today because I just made it on time.
Tonight Amber had a Tupperware party and the older boys went over to Grandpa Bill's for the night, so I took it upon myself to listen to a few podcasts I had been meaning to get to and clean the cyclonic mess of puzzles, toys, and crayons in the basement.
Before
This was Amber's gift for hosting the Tupperware party. The world's smallest magnetic measuring cups and a salt/pepper shaker that holds more than 8 grains of each.
I know this is only 11 pictures. I was hoping to post one more by the end of the night, but I crashed on the couch watching poker. 11 will have to do. :)
