I'm up before my alarm making important phone calls...my roommate is leaving so all the bills are getting transferred to my name. such fun! Then I go wash up and get some leftover pancakes for breakfast. nom.
It is already hot and sunny out when I leave for work. Yeesh. My new sunglasses help a lot!
Get to work and pop the bebe in her chair for a small snack and a new hairdo. I'm just killing myself with cute doing these pigtails. i can't take it. Then we head out to...
meet
42itous and Baby Bear! They chill in the shade while bebe plays in the water. We loooove splash pads!
R gets some mango to suck on eat while she plays, Baby Bear just chills out in her stroller watching everything :)
Then Baby Bear gets her snack and R and I go play on the swings.
The little one tries out the swings too. So freaking floppy and cute! I miss when R was so tiny! Then, sadly, we have to leave. No pics on the way home because R was falling asleep and I had to carry her most of the way to prevent that >.< did i mention it was like 92 degrees and HUMID? Bleh. Anyways. she climbs the stairs at home by herself, because by that point I was exhausted.
I put some pasta on while R amuses herself. Even though she was thiiis close to falling asleep on the way home, now she has energy to play!
Lunch.
She conks out. I chill out.
Except when i go to take my sandals off and relax, i discover i'm filthy. ew. i quickly shuffle on top of my sandals to the bathroom to rinse off.
Two-ish hours later, i've finished my whole book, and baby's still sleeping! I go have a snack while I wait for her to wake.
*sings* a threee hourrr naaaaap! awesome. Baby finishes off some strawberries after she fiiinally wakes up.
Then we're off again. time check! First stop: froyo. because. it's hot. and, um, NUTELLA. awesome. only problem with this place is the *yogurt* is always the stronger taste, versus the flavoring, if you know what i mean. oh well, it's cold!
Then to another park...she swings for a little bit, then insists i sit next to her and swing too! we try and give high fives while mid-swing. it's great fun :D
Then, time for MOAR WATER! she loves it! I love this park, they have the coolest structures...can't wait til she can climb them!
Home again, turn on her Music Together cd while I clean up and rinse out her bathing suit.
Bye-bye, toys! Time to watch out the window for Ima or Abba to get home!
And I'm off, at a reasonable time, even. Home!
Check the mail, turn on the A/C...
Then jump in the shower ASAP. All that sunscreen and sweat, yurk. I felt much better after! And look, you can almost see that i "tanned"! (My tan=most people's winter/deathly pale).
Lazy dinner--cheese sandwich and waaaay too many mandarin oranges...but they're healthy, right?
I'm currently doing a lot of this...I decided to watch all of HIMYM from start to finish, finally. I just finished season 5! I love it. Please ignore the messy desk.
At some point i start feeling dizzy-tired (yay, hot weather...), so i go wash up. my new
face-washing routine involves steaming my pores with a washcloth. Amazingly hard to get a picture of!
Water my giant basil plant and then get into bed, wicked early. One last check of social media and then i was OUT.
