babysitting, books, & a very busy week

first off, i can't believe it's wednesday. this week has been CRAZY busy, but at least the work week is flying by. monday i babysat some angel babies all night which was fun. the kids rode bikes forever and then i got to do the nightly mom routine of dinner, cleaning the kitchen, baths, reading books, reading some more books, and bedtime. it was a workout but so sweet and precious. here is a picture of the little pumpkin on her big girl bike with juan, the smallest dog ever. i know, adorable.

tyler and i have both been super busy with our respective schools. the end of the 9 weeks is upon me, which means tests are happening, lots of grading, grades are due, etc. despite the week being stressful, it has been a good one. three sweet mommas gave us gift certificates to the book fair that is currently going on at school. i was thrilled to see these two on the shelf, and i quickly made them mine.

we are flying to texas friday for a friend's wedding, and you better believe i am packing these two! i am so tempted to read them now, but i have so much work to do before we can leave town. oh, like packing. woops. you know how much i love packing. especially for this kind of weather. don't get me wrong, i love sweater weather, but we are in such a transitional time. it's like i need to pack a little bit of everything in order to be prepared.

tyler and i met up for some chill yogurt for a little date {since i have seen him for about 3 hours since sunday evening...that kind of week} tonight, so i am currently wired on sugar. now, to channel that into energy into packing...
