Or not
By Moriah on April 28th, 2009
Madeline got sick a couple of times in the middle of Sunday night so yesterday we pretty much laid low, waiting for the other kids to show signs of it and for her to recover. (And when one is in relaxation mode, one doesn’t do the laundry.)
I’m thinking it was something she ate because today she’s completely back to her normal self. We had met our fellowship group (and two others) for a picnic Sunday afternoon at a park and maybe she ate something that didn’t agree with her there. Or she just ran around too much.
Anyway, I’m just thankful that it appears to be over and no one else was affected. We haven’t been sick in a very long time, either, so there’s that.
Late in the evening yesterday she was feeling fine so we ran over to Wal-Mart to get a few things for Drew’s school lunch and to finally pick up some BUBBLES! The only problem was, I went to pay and realized my wallet was still at home on the counter. Doh.
Two trips later we had everything we needed. Except Madeline left her monkey in the store, so we had to run in a third time. Of course I was still wearing my pajamas and had assumed we’d only be running in quickly ONE TIME. Live and learn. (At least I had some makeup on.)
We did bubbles outside for a few minutes before I started Adelaide’s bath. Then Drew walked in the bathroom with his open bubble bottle and leaned over to blow bubbles into her bath, but unfortunately the bottle leaned with him and half the bottle dumped out onto his feet and all over the floor. Clearly it was past time for everyone to be in bed.
Okay, OKAY. I’m off to fold my five loads of laundry from last week. (I know, I live a glamorous life.)

I’m just glad someone else ends up at Wal-Mart in the pajamas. :)
As I always say, I live in Laundry Land. The actual washing and drying is no prob. Folding and putting away? SUPER challenging.
I forgot my wallet at home a few weeks when I went to Costco. I was muchly sad.
Girl…you need to try my recipe for bubbles. It’s Dawn dish soap, glycerin, and water. SO easy, and I swear you’ll have enough bubbles to last you all summer.
Three trips to Walmart? With kids in tow? Shoot me now.
;)
I know I seem to always comment when your post involves Madeline’s monkey, but I just can’t help it because Julia is attached to her pink bunny just the same. I think we would go to great lengths, just like you, if she left in somewhere. In fact, the other day she almost dropped it out of the car window onto the highway. Would we have turned around to fetch it? But of course!!! haha
