We had out usual 7:30 wake up call this morning, and soon after ate some breakfast. Then, Christian right away got dressed and ready to go. His tooth was still bothering him today, but he said not as bad, so hopefully he can make it through the week. He was off to the auto parts store bright and early this morning to pick up the parts he needed to replace my brakes. Yup, you heard it, MORE car repairs. What's new?! His dad came over around 11:00 to help him out, and while they did that, the girls and I played, watched some movies, and got ourselves ready for the day.
He finally finished around noon, showered, got ready, and we were off! Today was Grand Old Day in St. Paul, and I really wanted to take the girls. And, it was so fun. We again spent the majority of our trip down in the kid zone, checking out the animals, eating some food and hanging out. We then made out way a short distance down Grand, eating some more food, people watching and doing LOTS and LOTS of walking. We ended up running into my mom, and the girls were pretty excited about that! Then, we started our long trek back to the car, and headed home. The girls passed out immediately as we started driving, and ended up sleeping until 7:15! Oops!
On our way home, we noticed the car was making a funny noise...it kind of sounded like a flat tire. So, while the girls "napped", Christian ran over to his parents house so his dad could check it out. He didn't see anything wrong with it, so is thinking that the noise will go away as all of the parts get used to the new brakes. Fingers crossed!
Luckily, the girls didn't end up staying up too late after their super late nap. They were both passed out by 10:00, so not bad. Now, I have to gear up for my week as a single parent. This should be interesting folks, that's for sure!
Here are some pictures from Grand Old Day!
