Monday

Today is the beginning of our "This Week" journaling project. I am also putting together different video clips and hopefully by weeks end I will have a summary of our activities to watch.

Mondays: In general Mondays start out hard for the three of us as Daddy has to go back to work after 2 full family days. We live for the weekends around here! Daddy is more of the "fun" parent.

Our schedule:

5:00-5:20 - John wakes up and wants to eat, but quickly goes back to sleep and so do I.
6:30 - Dad wakes up to start his day
8:30 - John finally decides to wake up; eats; say hello to the dogs
