I had to work with MP all day so you stayed with Daddy.
are we on top of the earth?
ate cheese apples & peanut butter snack while dancing to music
Daddy made pulled pork on the green egg
wanted to take a bike ride so you ran in the house and put on your Steelers jersey for Daddy.
On the way to school you kept telling me “I love you forty one hundred!” Then you asked to hear the Mulan soundtrack. Not my favorite but all of a sudden you love it lol! You insisted on taking pictures at school in your spot and making funny faces. You even made me show you the pictures before going in! Ms. Sandy took you for ice cream after school and you chose to get a strawberry sundae.
When I got home from work you were crazy wired again, just like yesterday. Running around and being crazy. You helped me make pizza and then Chrissy and Olivia came over. You were playing with Olivia and showing her how do things, like pushing the shopping cart. You love interacting with her and teaching her. They left because she needed to go to bed. We were starting to walk Harold and you wanted to run home and change your clothes. You ran back out in just a tshirt & completely naked butt. You got mad when I told you that you had to wear panties and shorts too. You went inside, told me to walk the dog by myself & closed the front door! You went to bed every night this week later than you should have, so I came inside and we went to your room to read & do Lingos. You were squirmy & not listening so that didn’t last long. You were just pressing buttons & playing, not trying to do your kids Lingos seriously, so I turned it off and told you to grab a book. You didn’t want to read & kept getting out of bed. I left and gave you some time alone then you came to get me. Finally, you fell asleep around 10p & I fell asleep with you. I have no idea why you hate sleep so much!!!
I love you so much!
This morning while you were eating breakfast, you were chatting with me and said, “I know what! I love more than you know!” What a way to start the day! Today you chose your Elsa dress with cape to wear to school.
You said “Alexa, show me the Whole Foods list” out of the blue, which made me laugh. It it unbelievable to me how this type of technology is just a regular part of your life and you won’t know life without it. We made our grocery list for today and then left for school. Ms. Amber LOVED your dress and you happily ran into school this morning.
We ate dinner then went to Whole Foods on our way to take Daddy to man night. You were running around the store and being crazy. Daddy was asking me if you are usually like this in the store and I told him you NEVER are! I knew you were tired, so we checked out, dropped Daddy off (you were upset because you wanted to go with him) and then headed home. Before bed you wanted to Facecall Aunt Deb & Fed. We did a few Lingos and you were out like a light!
I love you so much!
You came to our room last night while Daddy & I were sitting in the living room talking. We all went to bed & then you had a hard time falling back to sleep (and so did I). I rolled over and saw you and Daddy laying in the same position, again! Twins!
You didn’t want to get up again this morning. While I was blow drying my hair, Daddy was sitting by you in bed, blowing on your ear, trying to gentle rustle you up. After making you breakfast, we went out to wave goodbye to Daddy before he left. As he got into his car you said “Have a good day at work Daddy!” You HAD to run out to his car to give him one last hug. He absolutely loved it! When we got back in the house, you wanted to FaceCall Grandma Noot. You asked her about 1,000 questions and had a very interesting conversation with her. You also had lots of stories for her. You were excited to go to water play day at school!
When I got home, you wanted to sit on the bar and eat dinner while watching Onward. When Daddy got home from the gym, you had tons of questions for him too & told us all about water play day. I went to dinner with Grandma Noot & you hung out with Daddy. When it was bedtime, you wanted to read two books at the same time to him. I was sad you were in bed when I got home!
I love you so much!
While I was getting ready for work, you look at me, kissed me and said “I love you real much Mom! You’re the best Mom!” At school, you asked me to take your picture & you wanted to make silly faces!
I got home later than I expected. Daddy had you eating some corn when I got home. You helped me make stir fry. While you were eating, you told me that you love Daddy, me, Harold and your dinner “I love you all the way to the earth and back!”
Shortly after dinner, we headed to your room for books & Lingos. Tonight I didn’t fall asleep with you, surprisingly! I hate getting home late and having such a short evening with you, but snuggling you to sleep does help with that!
I love you so much!
This morning you slept in. When I woke you up you said “I can’t move I’m still relaxing!” You asked me if you could eat breakfast in my bed, but asked me not to tell daddy lol.
In the car on the way to school you kept petting my hair saying “I love you Mommy!” I barely got your hair done this morning and you didn’t want to get dressed, so you rode to school in just panties! I think you were still tired, you didn’t say much on the way to school.
You helped Daddy sweep the driveway & said “I want my own sweeper!!” You were trying to push it like broom and Daddy helped you. When you got the smaller broom, you said “Now I can see better!” since it wasn’t bigger than you!
When I got home from work, it was a little late. We tried to go for tacos for dinner, but you were mad. I was trying to get you dressed and ready to go but you didn’t want to. Then, I was on the phone and Daddy asked you to go potty. You started to cry so we decided to say home and make pasta. You said, “thank you mama for this delicious dinner!!!”
We ended up having fun. You helped me water the plants and played Paw Patrol with Daddy. Went to bed, but it took 1.5 hours to fall asleep. I know you are going to be tired tomorrow!
I love you so much!
This morning, you slept in until 9am. When you woke up, your were fully charged! You immediately started jumped in bed & you & Daddy were tickling me! When we got up, I had to run to pick up a prescription. You wanted to come & we stop to get donuts at 5-O Donuts. You were so excited to pick two and eat part of each in the car. When we got home, we made omelettes for breakfast & you ate all of yours despite the donuts!
You continue to be fascinated by umbrellas & enjoy playing with them inside the house! You were pretending to pay bills with Daddy’s wallet & pulling out his credit cards while we played on my bed. You told me you had his credit cards “so I can pay money for the umbrella” You told me it was “$29 bucks.” I was cracking up. You told me to keep the credit cards until I paid for the umbrellas.
You ran into the living room and when I came out, you were sitting so cute in the chair with Daddy, watching TV. I sat down on the couch to join you & you came over to sit with me for a bit too! A bit later, you wanted me to go to the toy room & play with your new Sea Patroller that Isabella gave you yesterday. You were so excited to show me all it does!
I never was able to get you to eat lunch with us. Even as I was ready to run to Whole Foods & Target, I offered you a turkey sandwich again, which you turned down. In Target, you were hangry & threw a little fit when the dress you wanted wasn’t available in your size. You were pretty upset, so we left to go home & get a snack (at this point it was nearly dinner time). I tried to get you to change your clothes, but it turned into hide & seek, naked, in your closet lol!
You stayed home with Daddy and helped him get the grill ready while I ran back out to Whole Foods. When I got home, you helped me make the twice baked potatoes and you stuffed them yourself! You ate a ton of dinner and played for a little bit before we went to read books in your room. We weren’t far into your Spanish book when you threw it down on the floor and rolled over to go to sleep. You were out before 8:30p. I was surprised you didn’t go to bed early last night. You had several late nights this week so it was about time to go to bed early! I kissed your face a few times before I left. You looked absolutely angelic laying in bed.
I love you so much!!
You woke up this morning & snuggled with us in bed. You hugged and kissed us & said “I love you both Mom and Dad. Can we have a family snuggle?” You hugged us both tighter than you ever have & gave us both a ton of kisses. It was the perfect start to the day.
You & I played in your room for a little bit and you were going through all of your jewelry in your treasure box, trying most of it on at the same time. That eventually turned into a balloon fight that lasted a long time & popped several of them! When I ran to take a shower, you came out in one of my shirts and looked so cute.
We finally got you dressed & in the car to run some errands. We stopped for lunch at Geckos. You were very chatty with our waiter, Mac. As soon as he came up to our table, you immediately ordered “a cheeseburger, french fries, milk and a water please!” Mac was laughing the entire time amazed at how well spoken you are. You thanked all the staff on the way out when we left. I love how polite you are! When we got home, you were excited to put all your new band-aids in your new first aid kit. You used so many this week that we needed to buy more!
We both showered and when you got out, you wouldn’t let me blow dry your hair. You ran to your closet and pulled out your 101 Dalmatians robe (which is a size 3T and barely covers your bootie) and wanted to wear it because I had my flamingo robe on. You had Daddy sit at the dining room table to play “toys” – Frozen & Toy Story figurines.
The Chiappone family came over after they had dinner at DaRuMa. You were so excited to play with Isabella. She brought you a Paw Patrol Sea Patroller that she’s finished playing with. You were so happy about that! You guys ran all over, playing with the giant slinky down the stairs and every toy we own in the toy room lol. I went to dinner with Grandma Noot & Marina. You had a dinner date with Daddy.
Daddy said you didn’t go to sleep until 10:30p! I couldn’t believe it because you were tired & I thought you would have gone to bed early. He sent me a picture, you had your Frozen couch ON your bed, sleeping in it lol! When I got home, you were sleeping in Daddy’s arms. You were both so precious. I was happy to have a fun night out, but I missed kissing you goodnight.
I love you so much!
You were up late last night with Auntie Rina, so of course you wanted to sleep in this morning. When I got out of the shower, you were cozy in bed snuggling with your Nala stuffy. Daddy did your hair then you went to pick your outfit for the day. You came back out with your Christmas dress and I couldn’t talk you out of it. You were so excited to show Ms. Amber your dress! I packed you a change of clothes because I thought you might get home, but when Ms. Sandy picked you up, you were still in your festive frock!
When I got home, you helped me make pizza. While we were eating, you asked daddy then me me how our day was. You listened intently as we answered you. I asked how your day was and you pointed to your dress and said “Lillian said that these look like jewelry diamonds and are beautiful!” After dinner, we watched The Fabulous Mr. Fox & you had a yogurt popsicle. You were so tired & you even told Ms. Sandy you were tired today. When I tried to take you to bed at 8:30p, you were wiggle worming all over and didn’t fall asleep until almost 10p! Daddy & I were watching TV and you came out around 11:30p, snuggled on my lap on the couch & immediately fell back to sleep. Daddy turned the bed down and carried you in. It was a long, hard week and it was nice to snuggle with you to sleep.
I love you so much!!
When I got out of the shower, all I could see was a mess of hair because you pulled the covers up over your head! Once you were up and moving, I asked you to go pick your outfit for school. You were gone longer than I expected, so I went to check on you. I found you cutting tags off of some new flip flops that are next sizes up. I asked you to smile so I could take your picture. You replied, “I can’t right now, I’m hard at work!”
You refused to put your clothes on, so you rode to school naked and we got dressed in the school parking lot when we got there! You were so cute in your sports bra & side ponytail. I couldn’t get you to take a picture on your rock, but the one of you walking with your lunchbox made my day!
Today was supposed to be your first class back at gymnastics, but when you got there, they told Ms. Sandy they aren’t starting until June 15. Coach Nickie was there and super happy to see you though, so she let you jump on the trampolines for about a half an hour. You were very happy about that. Daddy picked you up and you were sweaty and red faced. It was good to see you back in your leotard when I got home.
We had dinner and then Auntie Rina came over to hang out for a while. We snacked on cheese & crackers and played Life. She couldn’t believe that your attention span lasted the entire game. Then you dressed her in your Anna shoes and Elsa wand! We went to your room to do Italian Lingos. You of course have enormous fear of missing out, so it was 10:30p before you were asleep. I actually fell asleep with you, I’m not even sure if you fell asleep before or after me! I woke up at 2:15a and went to my room. You came following me within 30 minutes. It’s unbelievable how you can tell when I am close. I love snuggling with you & I know it won’t last forever.
I love you so much!
