I Heart Productivity

Tonight Bryce was actually home for a bit - HOORAY! With trips to Georgia, Arkansas, Minnesota, and possibly Florida, bishopric meetings, a case competition team, heading up a student organization club, etc. added on top of the usual schoolwork load... it feels rare that he's around much. He amazes me with his ability to keep it all straight and do it all so well! Just thinking about all that makes me tired. Somehow he keeps going.... mmmmwah, Bryce! umm, that was the sound a smooch makes, fyi. Anyway, I digress. So my Sweets was home tonight and I took advantage of it to run a bunch of errands while he was putting Sophie down for bed. The errands have been piling up on my dining room table for the last week or so. It just takes sooooooo much longer to run in and return something with two kids in tow than it takes me by myself that I just couldn't bring myself to do it during the day. BUT HOW GREAT IS THIS?!?!? In less than an hour and a half I went to Kohls, Target, Babies-R-Us, Walgreens and the Post Office!!! And now I have zero errands to run and a much clearer table and... I feel SO productive! Love it.

And you know how I hate to do posts without pics, so here are two pics that Marci took the other week (Marci rocks, too!!). Wow. Do I have cute kids or what?!?Also want to send a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my sweet mother-in-law! Sending lots of birthday hugs and wishes your way!! Here's a pic of the lovely lady with her first four kiddies -- two sets of twins! I'm telling you, people, she is a super-star! :)

And now... off to do dishes.... good night!
