• Bentley woke up around 7:30 this morning after sleeping all night long. We were very pleased with that for sure. After sleeping so long though she didn't want to take her early morning nap at all. That was fine though because we were awake-Robby did some work and I was able to start school about 10 minutes earlier than usual (baby steps.)
• We did our school work this morning without too much excitement. Anderson and Keaton both finished one thing today and Whitman will finish something tomorrow. That is sure nice marking things off of the list and making our days lighter.
• Once school was finished, I worked on school for next week plus I ended up sewing some on Reagan's sweatshirts. They will look pretty cute, and hopefully by the time that this is over, we will not have spent 80 dollars like it would have costs to buy 2 of them.
• Bentley didn't do so great today. She has forgotten some of her pottying skills-she is still doing good overall, but good thing I have carpet cleaner. And bless, we left her for an hour today, and well, she just wasn't too happy at all. She has to learn to be alone-probably having 8 people that constantly are taking turns petting, holding, playing with and training her causes her to not have any alone time which causes her to be a bit upset when she is alone.
• I did end up on the treadmill for a little bit. I did everything I could to stall as long as I could-I walked Bentley with Whitman-he explained Deja Vu to me. I had a snack-marshmallows, chocolate chips and peanut butter. I looked at my phone (I reached the end of the internet long, long ago.) 
• As soon as I was finished on the treadmill, I started helping Robby with supper. We made individual pizzas for everyone-those silly things took over an hour to make. We were able to make a few at a time, but it still took forever. By the time that mine and Robby's was made, I just had about 10 minutes to eat before it was time head to church.
• Church was good tonight-I do love that all of my kids enjoy going to church. Afterwards, we headed home for a little bit before going to celebrate Brett's 16th birthday with cookies and ice cream. We haven't had ice cream in a long time so everyone certainly had plenty to make up for it. 
• Back at home, we had a bit of downtime (also known at dog playtime) before it was finally time for bed around here. Tomorrow is a busy day-school, vet and pm church for me.
