So...I am not going to lie....I was looking forward to Restore the Core not only for it's fab workout which I need desperately since the c-section 11 wks ago but bc it meant I would go and come back to a quiet house, kids washed and in bed without me doing it!
Ok so today I just didn't have "time" to give Eliza a bath. Truth: I had the time but daddy hasn't given her one since birth so guess what....I didn't have time today....could you do me a big favor?
Don't get me wrong...daddy is a good one, gave baths to Ava since day one and does everything under the sun (maybe a little more slowly or backwards but hey...beggars can't be choosers plus the kids like the attention too)
Sooo...great class tonight, sold some restore the core dvd's, moms are into the workout.... Coming home to the quiet house.....walk in....seems quiet....go to the bathroom, hear the footsteps of Steve. Everyone asleep? I ask. No was the reply. What do you mean no? (it's 8:30p, usually asleep by 7:30) What do you mean, what do you mean? he replies. (Seriously, this is how the convo went). I come out of the bathroom....Eliza is washed! Task accomplished. Except she is in her onesie wrapped in a blanket. Oh...Eliza is awake...well, no big deal. Then I hear footsteps...it's Ava still dressed and covered head to toe in stamps. So...now we have two kids neither in their pj's, one washed, and one who needs to be scrubbed with a Brillo pad and paint thinner. So much for peace and quiet!
The funny thing is that it was all really funny.....me, Steve and Ava all had a good laugh together as we were all piled in the bathroom trying to scrub the stamps off Ava and get her dressed while trying to use this as a teaching moment for Eliza (A for effort?). Everyone took it in stride and actually had a good time. So even though I was looking for some peace and quiet....I really enjoyed the craziness that ensued much better. That's what memories are made of.....
I have restore the core tomorrow night...wonder what I will find when I come home? Stay tuned.
