Our typical day...

Here is a look at our typical day (give or take some as there is rarely a typical day:)

  • 6 am wake up
  • 6:30 am Micah wake up
  • 7 am Adelyn wake up
  • 8 am breakfast (we've started doing devotions and singing to Jesus with the kids at breakfast which has been really great)
  • 9 am Adelyn nap (I will usually let Micah watch a short movie or movie clip after he finishes his chores (which right now is only to make his bed and brush his teeth) so I can finish getting ready or do something like start dinner or unload dishes, etc)
  • 10 am -12 pm depends on the day either play with friends, have play group, bible study, get groceries, or on a day when we don't have anything planned we will (well atleast during the winter if it were summer we'd play outside at beach/park) go to story hour or the kids museum or when we are desperate we go to dairy queen or mcdonalds playland
  • 12 pm Corey home for lunch
  • 1 pm nap (yeah!) (I usually use this time to get stuff done--finish dinner, clean, etc, also work on my bible study, and if i'm really tired nap)
  •  3 pm wake up-5 pm play
  • 5 pm Corey home and dinner (sometimes we will also go to the carousel or to DQ or do something together in the evening and during the summer we do lots of walks and go downtown)
  •  7 pm Adelyn nap
  • 8:30 pm (ish depeding on nap or if no nap the he is in bed with A at 7) Micah bed
  • 10 pm Corey and I crash (if we aren't already asleep on the couch)
Just when you get a good schedule down something changes--Micah will drop his nap or Adelyn will drop her am nap or whatever.  I would love to be able to stick to a schedule to the T but that can't always happen (I mean I'm not going to stay home from Bible study b/c its Adelyns nap time though granted sometimes we will go late so she can sleep for a few) and that is ok.

So not that anyone besides me cares about our daily schedule...but here are some pics to show you what our days look like!


Our neighbors have a huge pumpkin farm.  Micah loves Farmer Bob and loves his tractors. He is so great and loves having Micah come visit him (which we do a lot during the fall)


The kids favorite fruit--blueberries.  Too bad we have already eaten the 30 lbs we got this summer.  Next summer we will be doing a lot of picking!
Congrats to my sister, Shelby and her hubby, Ty on the birth of their sweet little girl, Anistyn Grace.  Isn't she precious?  I've been able to see her twice and look forward to seeing her again over Christmas.

While Shelby was in the hospital I had Lincoln for a day (he was supposed to stay longer but got sick).  He and Micah love playing together.  I forget though (or maybe just am not used to it) how boys play--they are so rough and were pretty much constantly wrestling!  They sure are cute together though!



Notice Micah eating breakfast and reading his "Go State" Magazine.

Micah loves to play football (the drum on his head is a helmet....I've told you he has a great imagination) and he doesn't just play football but reenacts the entire game (complete with the half-time show and the concession stand with hot dogs and popcorn to name a few)

He also likes to play doctor.  Notice all his patients lined to to get their shots!
