3/6/11 – A Sunday With Nothing To Do…

Sunday, Sunday. Sunday is pretty boring for us when it’s not football season. We’re always kind of lost, like, what do we do when there isn’t any football to watch? Of course, we decided to be kind of lazy today. I should have gone to do my weekly Target shopping, but I was just too tired. We managed to get the girls down for their naps at the same time today, so we were able to sit down and rest ourselves for a while. Other than that, we just spent the day with the girls. Olivia is really into her baby dolls again, she likes to put them to sleep and feed them and all that. It’s cute. She’s been doing SOOOO well with Amelia lately, and I’m so happy about that. She actually gives her toys, she lets her play with things, she actually gives her some space. I’m hoping that she’ll leave her alone this week since she’ll have her cousins to play with now! Amelia was working hard on her motor skills today…crawling better than ever (still pretty inch-worm like though), trying with all of her might to pull herself up. She can sit up from laying down no problem now, which is pretty cool to see. We tried out the mesh feeder, with some apples, today for the first time. She seemed pretty into it at first, but it didn’t keep her excited for too long.

Rico has been pretty interesting lately. Ever since Frank passed away, he’s been coming around more and more. He seems oddly attached to Amelia actually. He likes to lay by her, he’ll let her pet him and roughhouse with him, everything. It’s strange…he didn’t really want anything to do with Olivia, and didn’t come around much, but he’s like a whole new cat now.

We did a little cleaning around the house throughout the day, but pretty much just hung out and took it easy. Even though it doesn’t seem like it, Spring and Summer really are right around the corner, which means busy weekends and lots to do, and with two kids this year, it’s going to be even more crazy. I think we’re just taking in as many low key weekends as we can right now!

Today Amelia noticed that the “other baby” in the house had a bottle, she promptly crawled over to her and bathed her for said bottle…she was not happy to find out that there wasn’t actually anything in it though.
