I rarely do Facebook updates so here's a glimpse of how today would be if I did them all the time.
7:11am – Jason is awake before everyone else to attempt to catch up on his usual e-mail backlog. Getting from 130 down to 50 feels like success.
8:27am – some people say leftover pizza is disgusting. I say it's the best breakfast food ever invented.
9:29am – Having moved all the furniture from the living room to the dining room last night, Jason is a steam cleaning machine
11:00am – Jason, Shea and Pace are having lunch on the patio while the carpet dries.
1:30pm – Jason is trying to convince Pace to have a nap. It's not going so well.
1:32pm – Knees to the face on the day we have family pictures scheduled = no good.
1:34pm – Ouch. And now he's standing and taking running leaps at my head.
1:45pm – Shea's here. Thank god – she'll convince him to sleep.
2:02pm – Okay, well, at least she took him away so I could have a quick nap.
3:00pm – Jason is awake and man, naps are one of the greatest things on earth.
4:38pm – Jason is sitting in the van in the driveway after having taken Pace for a drive – the only way he was going to nap today. So I'm playing crib on my iPhone and he's zonked out…finally.
5:45pm – Jason is off to have family pictures done by one of Shea's colleagues who moonlights as a photographer on weekends.
6:35pm – Jason is pretending to be a model for family pictures at Luther College. Someone tell the photographer that the human body doesn't bend that way!
8:30pm – Jason and Shea are at the Barley Mill to meet one of Shea's old friends and her new boyfriend for a late supper and a drink.
11:02pm – Jason is driving the babysitter home and having a “when did I become an adult?” moment (similar to when he stopped to pick up Pace at daycare on Thursday and one of the kids yelled “Pace's dad is here!” and I was like, “Pace has a dad? Really?” before realising, “Oh yeah, that's me. I'm a dad!”)
11:52pm – Jason is going to bed just as soon as he comes up with some stupid idea to fill up his blog post for the day.
11:53pm – Oh, I think I've got one that I could even re-use anytime I'm hard up for material…
