girls night out

We had one fun girls night out! I had Abby and Gracie over before they started school this week so we could have one big party and boy did we party! I don't think there is anything sweeter than hearing three little girls giggle over the most silliest things. I feel like Livvi is so lucky to have them, it's almost like they are all sisters. Liv has been going to Suni's since she was 12 weeks old, three days a week and it has been such a blessing, she has gotten so much love from them they just adore her. Between swimming, getting pedicures, eating out, having ice cream, watching movies and a little coloring these sweet girls wore me out! I sure love that I get to be their Aunt!

Oh and can I just say the LOOKS I get when I go into public with these cute girls, three girls and one soon on the way...people look at me like I'm crazy it's soo funny! It was even worse one night when I had Averi to add to the bunch, I just know people wanted to offer free birth control to me! ha!

school & texting

Off to school Livvi went today, "pack pack" in all! As I was unbuckling her she says, "see ya mom" oh this girl is growing up too fast. She goes every Wednesday for a couple of hours. A few things we hope she learns is to play nice with others, manners, colors, letters, songs and I'm sure soo much more. I'm excited because I think Liv was able to get such a great teacher so it will be exciting to watch her learn and grow.

So I text Phil after I dropped Liv off and this is how our conversation went, it melted my heart:

Me: Just dropped Liv off at school, kinda sad!!! She did good!

Phil: Good! I am proud of her. Don't you just love her so much. I have been thinking a lot about how I love this age and don't want it to pass because we will look back before long and miss it when she is Abby's age (8yo). I know she's rotten but I still just love how she is learning so much and curious about everything and still has that innocent sweetness about her, you know. I love our little family and that we have a new little baby coming :) Thanks for everything ure going through to have our family babe.

Liv is soo lucky to have a daddy that just adores her and I sure feel lucky to have him by my side!

Long Days

I feel like the days are never ending around here, I am board out of my mind but I don't have the energy to do anything. For the past 7 years I've usually worked anywhere between 40-60 hours a week depending on the season and I loved it and hated it all at the same time. Now that I'm not working much I don't know what to do, partially because I don't feel good. Honestly during this pregnancy I don't think I could of worked like I did when I was pregnant with Livvi, I feel lucky that I have been able to cut my hours down so much. I must be getting old, maybe waiting to have babies in your 30's wasn't so smart? I've been baking, only because I don't know what else to do. I don't really eat my bake goods, today I threw away a couple dozen cookies that were old not to mention expensive to make and then made brownies...it passes the time, only 3 more weeks until our sweet baby boy comes, I am sooo excited! I wish he had a name, I wish Phil would agree with my names, who knows maybe he will when he sees him? I can't wait to be done being pregnant, I haven't enjoyed most of it, I should be more grateful but honestly I'm over it!

A few things Livvi has said this week:

Mom: Liv do you want to go to the store with me?
Liv: No
Mom: We are going to get chocolate chips!
Liv: Fine (with a sigh), I'll go.

She's TWO, I'm supposed to be cool and she is supposed to always want to be with me...right?

Mom: I said something to Liv in the car the other day I can't remember exactly
Liv: Mom, I heard you!

WOW!!!

Aunt Suni: Livvi you need to eat your beans all gone
Livvi: Nunny, you not my mommy!

WOW again!

What am I going to do with her, 2 going on 16?
