Mother's Day 2012

So... Today was interesting...  I guess the kids missed the memo to not explode on mom, and let her sleep in.  We were woken up at 4am, and then again at 7 by screaming T-man.  Iz woke up around 7:30 demanding to be up and out of her crib.  Then, they BOTH insisted on being fed at the same time, in the same high chair.  Finally when they went down for a nap after about 4 diaper changes for each of them, I got in an hour nap before T was screaming again.  So the hubby made me get up, we got out of p.j.s and into real clothes (yes, it was about 3 pm before anyone in this house got dressed.  It's sunday, mothers day, and the fewer wardrobe changes the less laundry I have to get behind on), and left to go to our moms' houses and give them their gifts.
Cut to 7:30ish and dinner at a family friendly nice pizza joint.  I'm carrying T on my hip, go to put him in the high chair and pow! My arm is COVERED in poo!  The AMAZING SERVER doesn't hesitate but grabs some paper towels and scoops most of the yuck off my arm.  I got to the bathroom to strip the poo covered little man, and she goes to get me a rag to clean him up.  She ROCKS! She got me a rag, finished cleaning off my arm, and then got me a towel to lay him on because they didn't have changing tables.  She was so great!  She didn't have to do that at all, the other dinner choice we had, the servers would have turned their nose up and given me a dirty look because my son had a dirty diaper that decided to go up his back.  So much for the cute rocker outfit I had him in, he got the rock the "truck outfit" which was a size too small onesie, so it wasn't snapped.  Iz was super cute, and T looked a hot mess but still flirted with the servers.  I just told them he's a lot cuter when he's not covered in poo.
Now they're passed out, and I'm working on laundry and planning how to raise money for the Great Strides walk in 12 days.  I set my goal low, $150, and so far haven't raised a dime. =-(  But I plan to actually make an effort this week.  I've given a little bit of info out, but haven't really tried too hard but that's about to change.
After the walk, I'm hardcore diving into planning our "Ride to Breathe" charity event.  But so far, I have half a logo, a decent name and a starting point along with a general date.  So... Any graphic designers that are willing to work with me and my OCD about the vision I have for this logo please hit me up!  Plus, if you're in the area and know a place we could end the ride, all suggestions are welcome!
Well that's all for now, I've gotta make sure I have something to wear to work tomorrow, ugh.
