Tuesday!

Well, yesterday definitely didn't go as planned, but it ended up being pretty decent in the end.

At about 9:45, I got a call from my mom that she had been in a car accident.... in Rachyl's NEW car! They had only bought it Sunday night... and in less than 48 hours, it's in the shop. :/ Bummer!! Other than some whip lash, my mom is alright though! :) Thank goodness!

Instead of going to our mommy and me gymnastics class and our park playdate and walk around the lake, we had an impromptu day with my mom. I loved spending time with her, even IF it was under these circumstances. I couldn't remember the last time I saw her by myself. Rachyl... or the rest of the family is ALWAYS there! It was good to have a one on one again. :) We spent the day at AAA adding the new car to our insurance, cuz- hello- didn't even have it 48 hours yet (and she worked ALL day on Monday) and then I took her to the dr's to get checked out. Thankfully, they think it is only whip lash and they gave her some meds to help with her pain and stiffness.

We finished running around in perfect time to meet up with my sister for some lunch! She was really having a bad day on top of her car getting a little hurt, so it was good to reassure her that her car will be okay and mom was alright, too. I love hanging out with my baby sister (not so much a baby since she's 17, but she'll always be my baby sister!). She is such an awesome auntie to Lexi. Lexi just lights up with she sees her aunt... and does her little happy dance. It's pretty cute! Ever since we brought Lexi home, she has smiled for Rachyl! I know that they say when we think babies smile when they're tiny, it's just gas... well- when she saw Rachyl, it was always a real smile. :) She love her Auntie!

Lexi is such a great baby!! I have no idea how I got so lucky! Any other baby I babysat through the years would have given me a run for my money having to wait for as long as we did (5 hours total)... Lex didn't take a nap and she was happy and content just being held or sitting on G-ma's lap (or the floor in the dr's office). I love my bug! :)

We finished off yesterday with some Handy Manny and some minestrone (for Lexi's dinner). She went down at 7pm and Nick and I were lucky enough to leave her with grandma and grandpa while we went out for some Taco Tuesday (well- we never actually order taco's... so mexican food tuesday??). YUM!! Why are enchiladas so yummy!? I have a serious problem.

Well, today- as long as everything goes as planned, we'll be going to the park and library for play and story time, then we'll head home for lunch and naps! I am thinking- since it's supposed to be so nice out today, that we'll take a little trip to the park in the afternoon, too. I love it when it's sunny and warm out! :) Tonight, we have the water polo banquet-- finally! :) I'm so excited to see my girls. It's been a month already (hard to believe water polo ended a MONTH ago!!) and I miss my girls so much!! I really hope the coach next year, whoever that may be, will let me come back to coach again. I loved it! Those girls were so much fun!

Waiting in the dr's office. Such a sweet baby! 

Playtime with Aunt Rachyl on g-ma's bed!

I call her name and she looks to Aunt Rachyl to smile. I see how it is!! :)

... FINALLY a good picture of our little klepto kitty! Every morning- and each time I leave the house- I come back to a bed filled with "presents".... or-- babies things that she has found and put in my bed. Thank you, kitty! haha
