Dearest Blessings~
Hello little precious children! We all got up a little earlier today than the past weekends. Which, gave me some time to prepare the crock pot. I cooked some ground beef and then put it all together with spices to simmer. We were making meat for sloppy joes. :-) Yummy! We made a lot though for lunches this week, or to put in some pasta sauce for a dinner.
We also did a lot of chores around the house. I took apart Joshua's play area and vacuumed the bonus room. I found 12 cheerios on the floor. :-P Little man, cheerios are for eating .... not for throwing. ;-)
But, here's the most exciting news of the day .... Joshua is officially walking! He walks all around the downstairs and upstairs with no help! I took some videos of him walking. Eliza is going to be so proud of him at his next appointment! It's so cute when he walks too, with his hands in the air!
Guess who came over for lunch .... our friend Allison! Joshua, you've met her before but Grace never has. Allison went to school with daddy and me .... we've all known each other for years and years! She's the one who sent Grace that cute onesie that says 'Peanut' on it! She was in town this week and wanted to meet Grace and see Joshua again. Right now, she's living in West Virginia for school, but she'll be moving back here once she finishes. :-)
Anyway, she brought over some chicken, rice, beans, plantains, and mac and cheese for Joshua. He ate a little, but not a ton. :-P Once daddy picked him up from the high chair, he fell right to sleep on daddy's shoulder! Daddy put Joshua in the crib and he slept for about an hour. The rest of us visited in the bonus room.
Afterward, Grace, you and I headed over to (Great) Uncle Laurence's house. Your Great-Grandfather from Tennessee was in town and wanted to meet you. Joshua, you stayed at the house with daddy since Mimi and Grandpa Mike called and were coming over.
Grace, everyone loved how I had spiked up your hair. ;-) You got to meet a lot of people too. Gigi, Uncle James, (Great) Uncle Laurence and Aunt Marti, (Great) Uncle David and Kevin, cousins Erik and Mia, and your Great-Grandfather and Rosemary were all there. You got hungry while there (which I was expecting), so I nursed you and then Gigi burped you and held you.
We left right before halftime of the UNC game. We played Kentucky today .... unfortunately, we lost .... so the season's over. :-( But, we did pretty well to make it to the Elite Eight with such a young team! We start two freshman, two sophomores, and one junior .... I hope they all stay and don't go professional so young .... then, we'll have a really good team next year!
The rest of the day we played in the bonus room together. This week is the first week in a while where we don't have any appointments! Woo hoo! We can relax and play all week without having to worry about getting to a doctor's office! :-)
Oh, I don't remember if I told you or not, we finished our book 'The Time Machine' and have now started '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea' .... this book is a lot longer, so I'm sure it'll take us quite some time to finish. Especially since I don't get to read everyday! ;-)
Sleep tight little precious angels!
I love you both!
