365:Day 9 ~ Beep, Beep, BEEEEEP!!!

So, unfortunately….

I turned the alarm off this morning. In 4 years of Macy going to school, we have never overslept! Normally, I get up at 6:15am and wake Macy at 6:20. We have to leave between 7:25-7:30, so that gives us a little over an hour. For those of you who know her well, you are aware that she is so not a morning person! Doesn’t like to get up and get moving…eat breakfast QUICKLY…etc. {she comes by this naturally – Bill and I aren’t morning peeps either – and Carly seems to be following in our footsteps, too!}

Somehow, I woke up and 6:58am, flew into Macy’s room, got her dressed, fed, teeth brushed, face washed, hair done, and dropped off at 7:37am. I don’t know how we managed, but we did! It was a cah-razy 39 minutes and all I can say is PHEW!

Note to self…“off” does NOT equal “snooze”!!! :)

oh god that is the WORST feeling EVER too isn't it?! Ummm I can attest that MG is THE slowest eater on the planet (but she totally solves the world's problems, so it's adorable), so that in itself would normally take the whole 39 minutes... GOOD JOB BUD! You pulled that one off!!

Oh, I feel for you. I'm just waiting on the day we oversleep! I'm with you... its such a rush as it is... Lainey is slow-to-get-going too... I feel like the entire hour I'm saying... "Come on, hurry up, eat! Lets fix your hair! Hurry up!" No matter what time we get up! :)

Do you remember the week during our first year of teaching when I overslept one day and then like 2 days later YOU overslept? We both showed up to work w/ no makeup, totally out of it, shocked w/ ourselves... I hate that feeling! It's nearly the worst--right behind a phone call from the school secretary asking if you're okay and coming to school!!
