Ahhh!

Today was a very productive day... I will sleep well tonight!
.
Aside from the exhausting and on-going processes of
growing a whole new person inside of me
and mothering 3 more-than-averagely-active little boys,
.
I finished 4 loads of Laundry
(...all folded and put away!),
.
deep-cleaned 2 more rooms in my house,

.
(I am in the middle of my bi-annual "hard-core-deep-Spring-cleaning"...
I am sorting through every cabinet, drawer, shelf and/or nook and cranny...
I should finish this week!),
.
dusted and vacuumed the entire upstairs
(the rest of the house I cleaned yesterday),
.
assembled and delivered Daynen's Birthday Party Invitations
(except the handful that need to be mailed...
And, by the way, they turned out SO cute... I'll post pictures tomorrow!),
.
finished and posted 2 sets of online proofs
(well, actually, Alli did that... I just helped! Thanks Al!),
.
gave Daynen an impromptu bath in the kitchen sink
.

.(after discovering that he LOVES spaghettios),
.

did a mini-photo-shoot of my big boys cooking dinner,

.

.

and helping with Kitchen chores

.

.
(which I plan to tweak and then frame for a Counter-top Gallery),

.


.

wired 9 Image Panels for hanging,

.

ran a few random errands,

.
bandaged up Kaden after he got what must have been the worst end of a dirt-clod fight...

(at least I hope it was the worst end! Ouch!),

had Coldstone Ice-Cream with the boys and my parents
.

.

(...who surprised us with a visit while they were in town today!),

.

completed the Design Template for the "Legacy Wall" in my Dining Room
(A project I have been working on forever! YEA! I am sooo excited to hang it tomorrow morning and finish it next week! I'll post photos after it's done, for sure!),

.
played peek-a-boo with my littlest monkey,

.
watched Mr. Magorium's Magic Emporium with my bigger monkeys,

( for about 1/2 an hour) until they fell asleep and I
tucked them all into bed,

.

caught up with my blogging friends,


and am about to take a long, hot bath
.

.

(... which I totally earned!)!
Thanks to Alli for her unceasing 12+ hour "shift" at my house...
couldn't have done it all without you, Girl!

GREAT Pictures - they will be so cute for a counter gallery!

I love days like this, it's so good to feel productive. And, I'm glad to hear the spring cleaning is taking place! I know you've been anxious to organize all those closets! I would like photos of how you did it when you're done so I can improve my organized ones ! hehe

AND, I loved that movie - I thought it was so cute!

AND, we got Daynen's birthday invitation last night, it is the darn cutest thing I've ever seen - I love how creative and talented you are.

I am exhausted after just reading that, and I am NOT pregnant!! I do enjoy days of accomplishment like those though!!

I wish we lived closer so you could take a family picture for us! We haven't had a professional one done since Brayden (4) was 6 months old!!! YIKES and now Ella will be ONE!! Hmmm...we'll be there in June!! We'll talk...

So glad to be able to see inside of your cute life!
