Monday was not one of my worst days, but it definitely fell on the list of "I'm glad that's over!" I was so tired at work Monday afternoon, and yet I still had to get the girls picked up, feed them dinner, and get them to bed, and I also wanted to work on two applique orders as well.
It wasn't bath night, so I knew I had time to complete at least one of them while the girls were playing and watching t.v. and while Addy was sleeping. For the record, she only took TWO 30 minute naps at daycare all day long! She just does not sleep there! Anywho....
I went upstairs to start my applique projects for a customer that I was meeting on Tuesday morning. I made a trick or treat bag for her, and it did not turn out as I had imagined. I knew it was just okay, and in order to compensate, I was going to bring her a few hair bows. I started to work on her second shirt and it just failed. Flat out failed. Everything that could go wrong did. So, I scrapped that project, sent her an email that we couldn't meet Tuesday because I had to go purchase another shirt since I had messed up . Thankfully, she was so understanding!
Tuesday morning, I got up a little after 7. Thank you, DJ for letting me sleep in and not bugging me about when I was going to get up. I was so tired.
I got the girls dropped off, although we were almost late to school for Gretchen, but pulled in just at the nick of time! And after dropping off Meggie, Addy Pearl and I headed to my Tuesday morning Bible study.
We are studying Beth Moore's "Believing God" and let me tell y'all this one is good!
Three times on Tuesday, I heard the verse Joshua 1:9. I don't believe it was a coincidence. I am fully convicted that God is telling me to be strong and courageous right this very minute because He is here holding my hand and not letting me go. I'm not sure if He wants me to "go" somewhere or stay right where I am, but man God. I heard you loud and clear yesterday. I am clinging to this verse right now.
This is what I wore Tuesday morning to Bible Study. I found a cute look on Pinterest that I wanted to recreate, and then I remembered that Sheaffer totally thinks it's okay to pair black and brown together so I did.
After Bible study, Addy and I ran a few quick errands and then I came home to finish what I had started Monday night.
I'm so much happier with how this trick or treat bag turned out!
And I finished this snowman tie. I love him.
I also did another shirt and started on a few hair bows, but then it was time to make my rounds of picking the girls up from school.
Gretchen had book fair, so right after school, we went to the kindergarten night and she purchased three books.
She ended up getting a LaLaLoopsy book, a chapter book that I made her get (ha!), and a Sofia the First book. Because it had an amulet. That is the only reason she got that book y'all! She wanted Sofia's darn necklace and couldn't wait any longer.
She immediately came home, put it on, and started talking to our dog Bailey fully expecting Bailey to talk back to her in a human voice.
Anyway, we picked up Meggie afterwards, and then we went home so I could get Addy settled down and then I decided to make from scratch waffles. Remember y'all, I am NOT super mom.
While I was cooking dinner, Addy was fussing a bit, and I looked over to see that Meggie had pulled over her rocking chair, turned Addy's swing, and she was talking and playing with her.

A few minutes later, Meggie decided that she should play soccer with Addy, and I'm 90% sure that soccer ball hit Addy smack dab in the head.
When I finally sat down at my desk Wednesday morning, I pulled up facebook on my phone. Because Lord knows you do not want to be caught on facebook at work! I immediately saw this picture of a cutie honey pie in her candy corn shirt I made and her October bow of the month club bow!
How precious!!!
