Fun evening tonight. We went to Chili's for dinner just to mix things up a bit and Olivia was very into the chips and guacamole. We didn't think she would like it, but she tasted it, thought for a second or two, then nodded her head and went for more. Now we have to teach her the social rules of no double (or triple or quadruple....) dipping! She sucks the guac off the chip, then dips it again.
Back at home, Olivia finally was able to put on one of her own brown shoes! She's been bound and determined to accomplish that task for some time now. Success!!!
I was excited to play with two work ladies tomorrow who live in the area and their little ones. Sadly, the week has been so hectic that I have to work tomorrow. There's no getting out of it. This sucks. Sure is hard to have a social life. So much for the cushy CMDM job. It's very busy to sort out new processes, etc.
I'm pooped! Long week. Olivia was sick on Monday and I enjoyed staying home to be the Mom. We snuggled and she fell asleep on me out on the patio couch. Gorgeous weather, sweet moment for sure. I could use a few days off.
Last weekend I managed to rearrange the linen closet to put all the pills up high, definitely a good feeling to have that danger tucked away. Monday we even disposed of all the old pills. The rest of the week was just super busy with work - booo hissss!
This coming weekend Kevin and I will join the party up in Berkeley for Annie's birthday. I have to get her a present. I'm hoping to hide the knives away off the kitchen counters since our little one now likes to climb up on things in the kitchen. Her favorite game lately has been to hop up on the cooler that's temporarily in the kitchen and rearrange all the items on the Olivia table next to the fridge. Super cute. Maybe I'll see Megan too. It's been awhile. I'm so sleepy I can't really even think about the weekend. Super bummed I have to have a busy day at work tomorrow. Hopefully I'll actually be able to spend some time getting my tasks done and not just in meetings all day.
Other FUN things:
- Monday night, Olivia and I were watching the Science channel version of jackass where they showed diving bloopers (belly flops), guys running into each with with the big exercise balls and then bouncing off (going flying), and horses missing jumps - Olivia was *cracking up* at the bloopers. She thought it was soooo funny - clearly, she has Kevin's sense of humor. It was hilarious.
- In the sideyard we have a pile of plywood and buckets of rocks from building the pergola. Olivia likes to climb up on the pile of plywood and we're always worried about splinters and her falling off. So one day I ran over and took her off the plywood pile, saying No, and set her down by the patio. Well, the little trickster goes over to the buckets of rocks and acts all interested in those, then when I walked a few more feet away onto the patio she turned and beelined for the plywood pile, laughing the whole way and so proud of herself for tricking me. So funny!!! It's impossible to keep from laughing.
Hm, what else...
