4/25/11 – Monday, It’s Back Again

Well, it’s another typical Monday for us. I spent the day trying to play catch up at work. I ended up taking a little time off at the end of the day so I could stop at Target on my way home to do our weekly shopping. After overflowing the cart, I was on my way home to unload everything and put it away. Amelia took a late nap today, and was still sleeping when Christian arrived to pick her up, so I got the house to myself for a while. I put away all of the groceries, and just did some light cleaning around the house. There was so much to do, but I just wasn’t in the mood for any of it.

We decided to have some mini-cheeseburgers for dinner tonight, so Christian fired up the grill when he finally arrived home, and I did the hard part, threw some fries in the oven. Ha. Olivia hung out outside with him, which gave me some time to hang out with Amelia. Just as a little proof of why I don’t understand how she’s not growing…just in the time she was home, from about 6:15 to bedtime around 8:30, she had a few cucumber slices, three Gerber apple wheels, a “jar” of carrots with some rice mixed into it, half a banana sliced up, 7 or 8 fries (of course), and milk before bed. She’s hungry, nonstop, and she eats, nonstop. I don’t get it.

Finally, it was time for baths and bed. The girls slept all night last night, and it was wonderful. We’ll see what happens tonight! We pulled out the jump-o-lene over the weekend to distract Olivia, and she decided to just hang out in it for a while tonight. Also, we no longer use the baby bath tub, so the girls get to bathe together like big girls now!
