Mommy’s Home!

Day Six of the Daddy Chronicles:

Day 6 started at 7:22 – I know amazing isn’t it.  Jillian stayed up late last night so she let us all sleep in a bit.  Everyone took their time getting dressed and eating breakfast.  We had a laid back morning with no need to rush off to anywhere.

Meredith was home around 4:30 when I got back from picking up the kids.  Everyone was excited to see Mom again.

We made it through 6 whole days without getting terribly injured, without starving, without going insane, and without Mom!  How did we do it?  With the closing of our adventure, I thought I would leave you with the top 10 things that got me through the week.

10.  Blogging – writing in my blog and reading your responses has been therapeutic
9.  Laughter – having a sense of humour helps to put it all in perspective
8.  Vacation – having a few days off really helped me keep my sanity
7.  Netflix – the boys watched Scooby Doo and Thomas the Train online
6.  Lunchables – much more efficient than making lunch
5.  Evil Dad – I only used it once, but it was enough
4.  Sleep – Jillian slept through the night every night, that really made a difference
3.  Formula – a bottle right before bed helped Jillian sleep through the night
2.  Beer – a bottle right before bed helped Dad sleep through the night

And the number one thing that got me through the weekend…
1.  The Kids – they were great all week!
