Orland Square Mall

Frankie and I are so grateful that Ryan didn't have any commitment yesterday. They slept in until 10:00 a.m. Ryan got up and took Frankie out and cooked breakfast while I slept in until noon. When breakfast was ready Ryan woke me up to eat. My sleeping schedule has been really screwed up with working but I am not complaining. I am just glad that Ryan takes charge with Frankie when he is home. After lunch we head to our bedroom to clean up and get rid of the clothes that we want to send to the Philippines and put everything together in the box. Unfortunately, it seems like we may have to get another small one because the backpacks that I bought will not fit in there. Ryan decided to also send the complete bedding set for the queen size bed we have to the Philippines. We don't need it anymore and he said it is better that they can make use of it than throwing it out. That took so much space that the other set of pencil case and backpacks were still in the plastic bag. Good thing I remember that I still need to name the backpacks to where they should go. I may have to take some of them off because I don't think I will be able to close it. I don't like sending it like it is about to burst.

Frankie's old diaper bag for my sister in law and some ribbons for exchanging gifts.

After putting the stuff together, Ryan wanted to take us to the mall. So we went and had Frankie play in the play area. We got some yummy pretzels on our way out from the mall and stopped to get some Browns Chicken for dinner. Enjoyed a classic Filipino movie and sent my boys to sleep and I talked with my family back home. It was simple yet I had a wonderful time.
