8/29/10 - Busy Family Day

Today was a busy day. The morning was off to a rocky start with two crabby, refusing to nap children. NOT FUN. We finally had to "force" Olivia to nap (which did not last long), and had to just take turns holding Amelia so the other could get ready for the day.

Finally, we were all ready and on our way. Our first stop was over to my dad's house. My step-mom's sister from Utah was in town, so they decided it was a good chance to get the family together. The main reason for the get-together was so they could do a 5-generation photo. My niece, Rachel, had a baby, Allyse, a few days after Amelia was born. With Allyse, there is currently 5-generation of women in their family (Allyse, Rachel, my sister Chris, my step-mom, and my Grandma Berg). Crazy! It was fun to see my sisters and all of the crazy kids...let me tell you, it's a mad house there when all of the kids are together! Whoa. Olivia had a blast playing with all of them though.

Everyone started to leave, so we were on our way as well. We stopped over to Christian's parents' house for a little bit. He wanted to catch up with them for a little while...I just sat inside, feeding Amelia, and watching Big Brother (I'm a horrible guest....).

Finally, we were on our way home. Both girls were exhausted and went to bed...as will we! Weekend over, and it was a crazy one!
