Finally a chance to sit down today, and catch up on all of my fave blogs and catch up on my own blog.

Our day started early. We had all 5 kids out the door by 8:30 am. We headed to the local party store to collect our rentals for the baptism. I am happy with what we have so far. Then, I got my hair done with a new hair stylist. I am not so sure I am absolutely happy with the colour or the cut. It was styled in a rather dated style. I will straighten it out tomorrow and see how it looks. It better look good, as tomorrow is the baptism of our youngest, and last child. A very important day for Caroline. So, my hair took a couple of hours if you can believe that. I got home, fed Caroline. Went back to the salon to get a pedicure and she used "Cathy Pink" aka OPI Dancing in the Aisles. I love that pink, so she named it after me. That was a nice treat for my legs and toes. I have nice looking feet once again. After I did that, I headed to the mall. I haven't been to the mall in months. I don't even like going there. But, I had to find an outfit that would fit, and be suitable for tomorrow. I found a nice pair of brown dress pants, brown v neck sweater and cute shoes.

The nicest part of the mall was meeting up with my Mom. We actually tried on clothing together in the same fitting room. We both tried on these ruffled blouses in white. And you know what, we both looked like pirates lol. So, off went the blouses lol. I wished I had my camera. It would have made a fun photo. So, after using a gift card...and a great sale my 2 pieces AND shoes came to $69.00. That was OK. Not bad. After we shopped, we made our way to the food court and I had veggie sandwich and a decaf coffee with my Mom. We got to chat and laugh which was the highlight of my day. Then, I headed back home.

Dinner was on the table for the kids, and most of the clean up was done by dear hubby Cliff. That was nice. So, then kids went to bed. We left Caroline with my in-laws. She gave them the BIGGEST smile I have ever seen. We headed off to Wal*Mart to get a new mop (Vileda Twist Mop) as ours broke today. (GGGGRRRHHH just what we needed lol) got some flowers for tomorrow and filled up on gas. (90 cents per litre!) Good deal. Then, I was feeling very hungry. So, we drove through the local Timmies and had a small ice cap made with milk and a 12 grain bagel with light cream cheese. That was nice to have. Then home again.

When we got it. I cleaned the bathrooms, Cliff hung a picture from Cynthia in the bathroom. The new shower curtain is up. Ummm. What else. Cliff mopped. I got clothing etc, ready in the diaper bag for tomorrow. Made my list, and checked it twice to be sure we do not forget our cameras etc. Done. Then, Started the set up of the table for tomorrow. It is going to be really nice. The last thing I am doing is bleaching out the sink, and then I wiped down the hood fan, and some dirty cupboard doors too. Then I checked my email. Yipee. We are almost ready.

I think the weather is going to beautiful too. Well, gotta get some beauty sleep. I am going to try to go for a run early tomorrow!
