I must be getting Old

We have been so busy today. Its mid week and I am exhausted. Our routine has been the same and I dont know what the deal is. I need a long Nap. With Daddy on the staff duty rotation its taking a toll on me.
I was excited to spend some girl time with Abby today so I made sure we got a good nights sleep. I wanted to take her shopping and to help me find birthday presents for her sister. I feel really bad that Abby can not be here for her birthday. In order to get Abby for her birthday we would have to go get her on Halloween night. I told Abby I wish we could be we will not interfear with Trick or Treating. She is so sweet she said " its ok jenn i want to be here for my sister's birthday I dont have to trick o treat" . She is alway so sweet. I told her I know she does and I wish we could. I have thought of Many possibilities even getting her friday night , having the kids dressed and ready and stop somewhere on the way and let them trick o treat. I know it would be ok with us but we cant ruin her other baby sisters halloween.
I took Abby to Toys R Us today. Boy was that fun. At one point I didn't know who i was shopping for :) By the time we left Abby made sure we had something for everyone . shes so sweet. Then I took her over to Ross's. She has been begging for her own PJ's for our house and A robe for Some time now so I wanted to hook her up. She was excited. I failed though I forgot the slippers. :( Daddy will have to do that tomorrow. He was on staff duty today so she'll have him all to herself tomorrow. He snuck home for dinner tonight so he could spend sometime with her. She needed to get her new Hanna Montana closet thing set up and her bratz dolls opened and ready to go, ect ect. She had a long list for him today:)
Hopefully he can get some shut eye tonight at work as he has a fun filled day planned for the two tomorrow.
We had such a long day with the babies, and shopping, and putting everything away it was darn near 730 when we ate dinner. I am exhausted. I was just now able to sit still. I must be getting older. I don't think i can keep going. Tomorrows another day right? I think I have had so many ideas in my head on what I want to do with Abby when shes here Its all catching up with me and stressing me out. Trying to cram so much in into a limited time slot.

What a nice drive

We took a drive last night to go get Abby. It was not a bad drive up. One straight way. I think i can even do it without using the GPS system. I know I will have to anyways as the GPS takes us completely the other way.
The kids were so happy to see Abby. Diana did not stop staring and Smiling at Abby for a long time. She got out of the car before we took off and walked around with her big sissy holding her hand. It was good for both Abby and Diana. We never know how the drive will be with The kids. Either they bicker a little or sleep. Last night they surprised us. All the way home the radio was off. Abby and Dean talked the whole 2 1/2 hours home. They talked about everything, Abby's new school, her friends, deans school, his friends, the birthday party, pictures Abby had seen of the kids, ect ect. They talked about just everything. It was so cute. They were so good together.
Dean started to tell the stories of all our fire ants here. He tells Abby how Diana got bit 22 times a few weeks ago " She didn't even cry Abby" he says. Abby says shes tough just like Daddy. Dean says Not me.... We must have laughed and laughed.
It was such a nice drive home . The kids kept us laughing all night long.
