Saturday I got to go to one of my good friend's baby shower. It was at the Gift-n-Gab... very nice place. It was a lot of fun and the mommy-to-be looked beautiful! Here are a few pictures I took. Didn't really take many at all, but saw her standing here at one point and thought she looked so cute. Yes, I am bigger than her and she's due in one month! ; )
Sunday... Rachel friend & visit from my parents
Sunday Mike had the opportunity to go to the Packer game with some friends. I hung out at home with the kids. Rachel had her friend, Ella, over in the afternoon. They had so much fun - as always! They live so close, too... it's just so nice! My parents also came over for awhile in the afternoon to watch the Packer game. Seemed like it'd been awhile since I've seen them, so it was nice to get together. Here are just a couple pictures.
The girls had fun looking through Rachel's bin of stuff from when she was little (artwork, little gifts, pictures), playing outside, coloring and listening to music.
We watched the Brewer game on Sunday, too. What a bummer... I really wanted them to win. Oh well. Just so hard when they were so close to being in the World Series. I joked on facebook that the only good thing about them losing was that I didn't have to wear my only Brewers t-shirt anymore. It's getting way too short, but I felt I had to wear it whenever they were playing. : )
Monday... watched Olivia and more pictures
Today we watched Olivia... and get to for the next two days ~ we're so excited about that! The little girls had fun playing today... although they switched off taking naps throughout most of the day, so not as much play time as usual. Sometimes they nap at the same time and sometimes it's totally opposite.
This morning I took a few pictures of Kate and then this afternoon when the big kids were at school and Kate was napping I took a few of Olivia. Olivia and I needed a break from playing, so I asked her if I could take her picture for a few minutes and she agreed. : )
Here are some of my favorites...
[lately Kate makes some funny facial expressions when we move our lips funny... this is one of her attempts to copy me ~ we'll have to try to get a video of it, too.]
[our little tough girl... not sure if it's the way i dress her, the way she walks or her usual droopy mouth/cheeks]
[this is a great face]
[look at those beautiful eyes!]
[love this]
[this is one of my favorites]
Christmas Shopping... getting started
I decided I was going to buy my sister-in-law a planner like the one I got for Christmas. Well, someone posted something on facebook today for a coupon to get 50% off one! I'm so excited! If anyone is interested in a planner here is a link for the site where you can purchase the voucher. Great deal and great planner... I love mine!! You actually order the life planner from erincondren.com once you purchase and receive your voucher.
I've also gotten some other Christmas shopping done lately and am pretty excited about that! I'll probably still have plenty to do right before Christmas, but feel like I'm getting a much better jump start than I usually do! : )
Keep smiling!
