Mondays!!!

Mondays are insane for us. I don't know why but they are always crazy. Maybe the fact that Daddy is back at work, both kids have school, and Adalyn has ballet at one. That doesn't seem like much but with all the rushing and driving and trying to get places on time, it just always turns out to be crazy.
So yesterday a little after one we pull up to ballet on two wheels. Adalyn jumps in the back to put on her ballet clothes. Of course we can't find the shoes. I am yelling and tossing who knows what all around my car. Finally I spot the shoes. Yea! I throw them on her feet. She starts whining that there is something in her shoe. I respond with get your bottom in class and stop whining. There is no way there is something in your shoe. We'll look when get inside. She limps inside. Well lucky us today the moms get to sit and watch class. This would be great except Burke is exhausted and the last thing he wants to do is sit and observe Adalyn dance for an hour. And of course I have no toys to entertain him. So anyways Adalyn starts dancing with a limp. After a little number they sit down. She proceeds to take off her shoe and tell Miss Laurie there is something in her shoe. Well I hate to admit there is something. No not a piece of dirt. A lid to a water bottle. Yeah who knew a water bottle lid would fit in a tiny ballet shoe. Sorry kid. Next time I will try to listen when you say there is something in your shoe.
But on another note to make myself feel a little better one of the dancers little sisters got her head stuck behind the bars. We had to act fast and squeeze her head out. Fun times at our ballet class. I am sure it will be Burke next year with his head stuck. Anyways who wants to just sit there calmly and enjoy your child dance like a ballerina. What kind of fun would that be?
