Day 1 of 30 part 2

Okay so here is a pic of me today. And here is my description of what I did today.
Lets start with getting up around 7:30. Charlotte and I shared some banana bread for breakfast while a sing along played.... as it does every morning. I started some laundry today. After vacations there is always a ton of laundry. This time I had to wash blankets and comforters since we always take our own bedding and towels to the cabin. I still have more to do tomorrow but here's one basket of what I had to fold today.
Once Charlotte went down for her nap that time consisted of me seeing what else I missed in the blogging world while we were away and also on facebook. I entered a couple giveaways and blogged with my most recent pics. All while season 11 of Law and Order: SVU played on the xbox thanks to our new super sweet set up since we are officially connected to the internet. So handy. Love netflix.
Then, once Charlotte got up I decided... hey... I should really get dressed. I feel like a bum today. So I did and put a little makeup on to make myself feel a little prettier in just a tshirt, jeans and messy bun. Then I showed Charlotte how I can put chapstick and lipgloss on her lips. She looked so cute. We played around a bit, cleaned up some toys, watched more sing alongs. Went out to the mailbox to find only one lousy piece of mail in there and it was junk. I hate those days. I always get excited for the mail so when its a day like that its so sad. At least I know ads come tomorrow so there should be quite a bit of stuff and coupons... maybe something good in there!
So eventually Charlotte seemed to be acting tired... not too long after taking this pic and folding up all those sheets and towels. So I layed her down again. Scott came home within about 45 min of that where we went and set up his xbox live stuff. I had fun creating his avatar.
Then I realized it was 5 and thought it would be a really good idea to make dinner. Which I did and we ate. Then immediately got Charlotte into the bath because she was covered in stuff. I made this Texas chili stew stuff and she was a mess. So she bathed and since its Monday, Scott and I either read the upcoming Gospel Principles lesson that will be taught or we read from the Ensign. Tonight was an Ensign night from the new Oct. Ensign and so far it is AMAZING! I absolutely love the temple and this is the new updated temple information booklet the church will be giving out. Its really good and I can't wait to read the rest. This is great for members, nonmembers, youth, kids and adults! Just truly inspired! So I'm so glad we got to read Pres. Monson's message tonight. Good boost for the next day.
After that I took my 20 min walk and did my stretches then ran to Macey's for vanilla ice cream. When I say ran I mean drove... just cuz I walked doesn't mean I would run somewhere :) But that's besides the point....We're trying to use up stuff we have and we had some homemade hot fudge and caramel and also jumbo cookies I made for the cabin. So we heated up the cookies and put a scoop of ice cream on it with hot fudge and caramel and had yummy sundaes.... good thing I walked a mile right?
Then after Charlotte was down for the night I put some dishes away (saving the dishes I need to wash for tomorrow... such a procrastinator....plus I had already washed some and its a pain washing them all by hand.) then messed around on the computer while Scott played his NBA game. Then I showered and here I am... typing about my lovely day, laying next to my hot husband and ready to go to bed. Can't wait to continue on this lovely double challenge... bring it on!
