A Day With the Wilsons: Back to the Real World

Well, life as a stay-at-home mom came to a SCREECHING halt on the early morning of January 4, 2010. WOW, it was rough to get up and get going. The kids actually did great, although they probably had no clue where they were til lunch time. Surprisingly they really do a great job of getting up and going in the mornings and I am so very thankful. We spent most of our break having fun. We did Christmas with all of our family and it was a long, but fun day. The kids had a blast and got lots of cool stuff that has kept them entertained. Over the break we saw 2 movies, played at Plaza Fiesta with friends, had birthday parties with Gram and their cousin, took naps, and played, played, played! Everyone stayed healthy and it was so nice to not have to rush around for a change. But the real world soon came back to get us and so now we are back to school, homework, packing lunches, running to gymnastics, basketball practices, etc. The last big event before our return to school was Jules' 7th birthday (their cousin) 'tea' party. The boys did get to go and dressed up in 'boy' clothes. Cade showed his true boy behavior that morning when he realized he would miss the Carolina Bowl Game. Of course we all know he didn't miss much! But, I managed to DVR it and he was satisfied with that. He LOVES football and it is so fun to watch him. He will ask a million questions and it does get tiresome, but he cannot get enough of it. Basketball games start this Saturday so stay tuned for pictures.
