7/29/12

Today was a pretty good day. Christian partied it up a little too much last night, and was definitely feeling it today. I can’t fathom the desire to feel like that, ever, especially when you have two toddlers running around the house. I just don’t get it.

So, the girls and I spent the morning together. We played with Amelia’s new toys, did a little picking up around the house and got ready for the day. Today, we were all off to Olivia’s BBF Bella’s birthday party. Bella turned 4 on Friday, and Olivia was SO excited to celebrate with her today and give her a present. They ran around all day, played in the pool and had so much fun together. Bella is a little more aggressive than I like, and I can see Olivia is pretty reserved around her, but she seems to love her to death so it must not be that bad. I’m guessing she was a little more aggressive than usual since it was her party, at her house, with her family and friends around, but I was a little put off by it. It was nice getting to know her parents though. Her mom is really nice, super friendly and welcoming. Really laid back. Her dad is actually from Mexico City too, so he and Christian hit it off really well. Hopefully we can spend more time with them. They live so close, the girls love each other, and we have a lot in common with them - as long as they can play a little nicer, I think it's a great match all around.

After the party, we made our way home for a relaxing evening. No cleaning, no people, limited noise. Just what we needed after the chaos of the last week or so. Tomorrow, we start getting ready for our houseguests, and I couldn’t be more excited!!!

Here are a couple pictures of Olivia and Bella, so happy to be playing together...
