A week in the life of the Anderson's

We haven't written in a while so I figured it was time to write about life around the Anderson home lately. We stay primarily busy with the theatre, church callings and Ben's schooling. Between all of these things our lives stay busy. Ben has relinquished his Monday nights at the theatre so we can have a night together during the week. It will be a nice change. I know I am going to love the extra time with him. I still can't get enough of him :) He will be doing a lot more matienence around the theatre which will help because the list at the theatre is never ending, he knows that too. Oh, the joys of having work so close to our home. I still am babysitting Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Tuesdays are our long days. Ben heads to work early in the morning, leaves work and goes straight to class and then to a lab after. He is normally home around 9 pm. I babysit until I have to go to work at the theatre, and stay there til close. I come home and crash and get up about 5 times in the middle of the night to empty my bladder :) Miss Cherokee will start her tuesdays by going to my mom's house for the day because no one is home to take care of her all day, and so my mom is willing to take her until this semester of school is over every Tuesday. It will be good for Cherokee she loves being at my mom's house because she can go outside and play whenever she wants to, and my mom spoils her. Just think she spoils her granddog, our child will be even more spoiled by her. Wednesdays are mutual nights. I normally have church meetings at 6pm, and both Ben and I attend mutual at 7pm. We normally get home around 9 and crash, and I once again empty my bladder at least 5 times a night. Thursdays are normally more relaxing for me, and it always seem that that is the one day I am sick. Thursdays should be my cleaning day, but as of the last few weeks it hasn't been that way at all. Ben has class after work on Thursdays, and gets home around 7:30ish. We eat dinner late Thursday night and head to the Melo's house. I for one spend my time with Bryn on Thursday afternoons because there is only so much cleaning I can do in one day. I get to tired, and find that if I am out doing something I don't get as tired. Fridays Ben heads to work early in the morning, and is off by noon so that he can go to another class until about 4:30 pm. I clean the theatre and wash the theatres down with my sister on Fridays. So most of my fridays are spent at the theatre and occasionally I will watch a little boy from our ward if my schedule allows it. Saturdays are spent either at the theatre, or working in the yard. Hopefully the yard will get finished soon (cross your fingers)!!!! Sundays are the best, of course, when we aren't working :) So there ya go, now you know what our lives consist of. Of course when this new bundle of joy finally arrives life will be crazier and probably busier, but that is ok we will adjust. We'll enjoy our sleep while we can :)
