My daughters and I kicked off the week by sleeping in today. After my wife left for work, we all got up around 6:50am...it was nice to catch a little bit of extra shut-eye! However, once up, I immediately jumped into the Daddy morning routing:
--Pulling out school dresses for the girls to wear on this warm, humid fall day here in Pennsylvania
--Pouring bowls of cereal (Crunchy Nut and Apple Jacks)
--Combing hair
--Cleaning up the kitchen
--Packing lunches...
- P&J&N (Creamy Jif, Grape Smuckers, AND Nutella!)
- Mott's Applesauce
- Jello Chocolate Pudding
- Rold's Gold Pretzels
- Water
- And of course, my daily, hand-drawn note for my first grader (see attached).
This particular photo is in homage to our cat, Hamlet, who has been catching black crickets from our basement and bringing them upstairs to honor us (minor a leg or two).
It's gross.
Overall, the girls had a wonderful morning. Raina practiced piano and read her chapter book while Story, my two-year-old, watched "Elmo's Potty Time." I'm highly encouraging the watching of this DVD in our household right now as I can't WAIT for potty training to be over (we have a line item in our family budget for "diapers").
If Elmo can help her go on the potty ALL the time, I'll be a happy Daddy.
As for Stage of Life LLC, it was a busy day talking with merchant partners for the various loyalty, reward and member benefit programs we're working on, not to mention the normal activity occurring on StageofLife.com. It was a little quiet in the office itself as Megan, our Marketing Coordinator, was out sick today.
Till tomorrow...
