Olivia woke up last night complaining that her ear hurts...again. I brought her in bed with me, and she seemed to sleep better. We actually slept in a little later, which was nice. Amelia ended up sleeping until 10:30AM today! WHAT?!? I was sure it was a sign of something horrible, but she seemed perfectly fine when she woke up. Just tired I guess. I ended up e-mailing Olivia's doctor to see if we could get her antibiotic refilled without bringing her in since she just had an ear infection a couple weeks ago. Of course, everything is closed today....but Olivia actually seemed OK most of the day, so we decided to just wait it out.
Once Amelia finally woke up, we had some breakfast, and Christian took to the yard to mow the grass. Since Amelia slept so late, there was no way she was going to take a nap, but with a little bit of fighting, we did get Olivia down (and, she took a REALLY long nap, so she was definitely exhausted). Christian took a shower and got ready to head to his parents with Amelia, while I started on our next basement project. Amelia played so nice and contently with the princess castle while I got the "Kids Wall of Photos" hung up...lots of pictures and a new vinyl phrase. I also moved the candle sconces next to the TV, and cleaned up the living room. I also got the princess stickers and little posters hung up in the girls' princess area of the basement. It's all finally starting to come together. Just need to finish the princess area, and get the "Family and Friends Wall" up, and do a little bit of decorating, and the basement living room/hallway will be done.
Once Olivia was up from her nap, we met the rest of the family over at my in-laws for a little BBQ. My mother in-law broke her ankle yesterday, so she was just taking it easy. The girls were having a blast running around, and they were actually eating well and getting along...surprisingly.
Finally, it was time to head home and get ready for bed. The girls were dirty and gross, but poor Amelia passed out on the short ride home, and just wanted to go to bed. So I just wiped her down and put her to bed. Olivia helped me water the plants and I put her to bed too. Back to reality tomorrow!
Today's Photo a Day in May is Weather. Today was perfect! A little sun, a few clouds and a light wind. After a cold, rainy Saturday, and a hot, humid Sunday - this was the perfect way to end the long weekend.
I got a couple cute pictures of Amelia playing in the yard this morning I had to share too. Love her...
