Missing my hubbie

Today I am really missing my husband. I think it is knowing that he will not be returning till Sunday. Jeff is at the Great Banquet till Sunday evening. I think if he was just at work and working late I would not be missing him so much. I am really happy and proud of him for attending the Great Banquet, but I am very much wishing he was here right now. Last night I was trying to have fun with the kids. After dinner we played. Then I rented the sequel Chipmunk movie for the kids. They really seemed to enjoy it. I let the boys stay up late and pass out on the living room floor. I even let them eat their popcorn in the living room. Crazy, right? It is for us. We NEVER let the kids eat anywhere but the kitchen for obvious reasons. So, the boys were up well past 11pm and all them were up by 8a. Geez, why don't they want to sleep more? This morning was slow going. Then I met April, Savanah, Braxton and Mom at the park on Fry Rd. Amy P surprised us by stopping by. It was so nice to see her. That was really enjoyable. I really did not want to come home. But Savanah and Braxton needed naps and we didn't have anywhere to go. We came home and I let the boys paint, then make cookies, and play with the race cars with tiny parts. Now they are having quiet time. Well, I am having quiet time in my office. They are downstairs jumping off the couches and yelling at each other. I keep hearing all the home cordless phones beeping and the answering machine keeps going on and off. So, someone is playing with the 'locate' button. I just really hope that Juliet sleeps for awhile. It is so silly. I still have three children to watch. But just being short one kid makes things so much easier. You wouldn't think it makes a difference but it really does. Okay, so plans for this weekend...not much of any. I generally love not having plans. However, this weekend I wish we had a lot going on to pass the time. Alright, I can hear someone screaming downstairs in victory and another child screaming in pain. My time must be up!
