Rollin'

My MIL had the best suggestion. She says I should get a motor home to drive around so that the babies can have naps/snacks as needed while I do the daily drop off/pick up from schools. I've seriously put some thought...well, daydream anyway...into this idea. I could have a Mobile-Mom Unit! It would be the coolest...and I could retreat to it in the driveway when things get all crazy...you know that time of day...for some R&R time;) I'd fill it with magazines, my favorite candy, ipod dock, warm socks, snugly blankets....wine bar...Okay, I know I've gotten off track with my daydreaming...again.

Anyway, this is what our schedule looks like this year.

6:30 Tuba up, breakfast, dressed, brushed.

7:00 Tuba on bus, and onto breakfast for other kids

All in all it's going really well! I like the flow...it's a lot to remember. I'm thinking I might need an alarm...or multiple alarms to remember all the times but I am enjoying the school year so far...so good!
