On Tuesday we had a day off from school. Connor "helped" me put away clean clothes by fork lifting my folded piles into the laundry basket thus unfolding them and creating more work for me.
All Connor wanted to do today was wait for the garbage trucks. Everything else could wait, the garbage trucks were way more important than an outing to the park, running errands or going for a walk. The first truck came around 10:30 or so, while waiting for it to turn around on the next street and come back up our street the second trash truck arrived and flipped around and so we saw it twice. We kept waiting and waiting for the first truck to come back up our street and so yes all errands were put on hold. Finally the truck came back up our street around 1:15, and then Connor fell asleep on two chairs at 1:30. It's exhausting waiting for the garbage truck to arrive.
Chloe napped from 1-4, Connor napped from 1:30-2:30. While waiting we played with playdoh, cleaned, made messes, organized the cupboards out of Chloe's reach and broke a few items while we cleaned. Connor managed to break the dustpan, which has since made cleaning the floor a bit interesting. And Chloe broke a corningware dish. Chloe also rearranged the DVDs at least twice...which is a regular occurrence. Chloe has also rearranged all of our plastic tupperware stuff, she found where I kept the muffin cup liners and played with just about all of them, she decorated the kitchen floor with bibs and then mommy finally put her in her highchair for snacks while she cleaned up each mess. I fell asleep around 7pm exhausted on the couch, got up to go to bed and then slept soundly until my alarm went off at 6:30am. Having the day off of work is so exhausting!
