Hope you all had a blessed weekend! We stayed pretty busy while Daddy worked. Friday I worked from 7:30-5:30 and then had errands to run afterwards. I did take Trinity to meet her teacher on my lunch break. Here she is at her desk in her new class:
Her teacher greeted us at the door and she said, "This must be Trinity." (me thinking:I hope her knowing who my child is before introducing her is a good thing) She went on to say that she was told to expect a pretty little red head with blue eyes and is about the same size as her 3 year old. LOL She seemed to warm up to her teacher pretty well and also got to see who was siting in the center with her. She knows one other little boy. On our way out, we stopped to see her teachers from last year and she was so excited! She gave them big hugs and they said that they told her new teacher that all she had to do was give Trinity a journal and she would write away. :)
We got home in time to eat a quick supper around 8 and then when Daddy got home, we enjoyed the rest of the evening playing outside snacking on boiled peanuts before crashing in bed.

The next morning the kids and I had plans to meet up with some daycare friends to enjoy the new splash pad they built downtown. The kids really enjoyed it and I think I have found a great new spot for the kids to play on Saturday mornings when Daddy has to work. Entertained them all!
After lunch at home, the kiddos took a quick nap and then we were off running errands the rest of the evening. It baffles me how much people are amazed by me being out with 3 kids or that I even have 3 kids. I had some people ask, "Are they all yours?" or "You sure do have your hands full!" I usually laugh it off and say yeah because while I do have my hands full, I wouldn't want it any other way. My children fill my heart with so much joy and even if some days are hectic, I know that these days will be over in the blink of an eye and I will wish them back. :)
While out, I did get some fabric to make curtains for Trinity's loft bed. I still have to cut, sew and would like to add some ribbon to the edges but here is a sneak peek:
She wanted something with sparkle and I wanted something white so we compromised on 2 separate fabrics, her's being tulle and mine being white sheer fabric. I may actually use the white sheer fabric and make them into some sort of curtain for her window and get a white fabric that is a little more heavy for her bed. Have to make another trip to the store I guess. LOL The fabric came from Wal-Mart and wasn't bad on price at all and all together it cost me about $10 for 2 yards of each.

Sunday at church they had prayer for the students beginning the new school year. Ofcourse my bashful little shortcake hid her face and did not like having to get up in front of the congregation. LOL Atleast she didn't cry. :)
Afterwards, Trinity and Gabriel went home to play with Nana for a bit and Asher and I went shopping at Kohls and then went to Bruster's for some ice-cream. I got some pretty good deals, at both places might I add.
I got all of this at Kohls for $51!
At Bruster's I ended up getting my ice-cream for free with a coupon and Asher got his baby one for free also. Can't beat that and especially went it is as yummy as their ice-cream! Well, hope everyone has a HAPPY Monday and doesn't work too hard. :) I have another long day...7:30-5:30 again. :'(
