Rainy day Tuesday

I love rainy days.. but with two little kids, rainy days are no fun.  After I dropped off my daughter at school today I had to make a pit stop to Target.  I would much rather go to Target, or any other store for that matter, with just my son.  No offense to her but it is just so much easier going to a store with one kid versus two kids.  Sometimes I feel guilty going to the store with both kids and my husband because my husband has to make sure our daughter doesn't cause a ruckus.  So, today I went to Target and got some stuff that we needed.  Before I left the store I looked outside and it looked very dark and cloudy, like it was going to rain.  So I quickly exited the store and got my son in the car.  Just as I closed the car door, it started to pour.  What perfect timing!

I don't know what is going on but for the past week and a half, my daughter hasn't been as excited going to school as she usually is.  I always ask her in the morning she has school, "are you ready for school?"  And her response lately has been no.  When I take her to school and we walk up to the school, she looks very sad.  She's been pouting and weepy looking when we get to school.  It literally breaks my heart to see her so sad.

Tonight for dinner we are going to have Creamy Italian Chicken over Rice.  I think.  I'm not sure if I want to cook rice or pasta.  But we are finally all done with the Chicken Stroganoff.  I love how that recipe lasted us four nights of a meal and I only used two chicken breasts with it, too!  I love when a meal is very cost efficient.
