A fun day!

I had to work this morning. A meeting. Down in the cities. For 2 hours. Not my idea of fun.

BUT! It ended up being a great day! After my meeting I went to visit my B/F/F/O/I/K/Y/A Bridgit (she lives just 5 min. from where our meeting is) and brought us YUMMY Panera sandwiches for lunch. (Side note: If you live in the town where I live, don't you think we should be getting Panera and not Sonic? Seriously, all we need is more fast food burgers. Anyway.) It was so delightful to be able to go visit and love on her little baby Cora, and play with her boys. It was the first time I'd really been around Jackson (almost 3) without Olivia, and he was a TOTALLY different kid. He has such a hilarious personality and I loved it! Our visit was short, but it was so nice!

When I got home my mom had just put Olivia down for her nap (THANK YOU!) and Aidan was so happy to see me! My mom was feeding him in his bumbo chair when I came in and he had the biggest smile. After I said hi, I ran upstairs quick, and he started crying--THEN he said "MA"!!! Fluke, maybe...but I like to think not! He's almost 5 1/2 mos. so it's time for some consonant-vowel sounds--let the MA's come! :) THEN, I nursed him and put him down for his nap. He slept for 2 hours!!! And Olivia slept for 2 1/2 total. I had some great ME time this afternoon. AND when Olivia woke up we had 45 min. of time just the 2 of us to read and cuddle--much needed!

THEN(I know, the greatness doesn't end!!) when Ryan came home, Aidan and I drove to town and picked up my friend Rana. We did "drive-bys" of some places she is scoping out for daycare (she has a little man, Jack, who is almost 4 months) and then were debating between buying some ice cream at the grocery store or DQ. We ended up at the grocery store were I (we) ran into one of my ALL TIME favorite people-my midwife Susan. Almost made me wish I was prego...but not really. Just made me miss our monthly/weekly visits! After wandering the grocery store we decided on DQ anyway and went out to the parking lot where we ran into MORE all time favorite people--My hubby and Olivia! :) We headed to DQ and lounged in the grass smooching on our babies and eating ice cream.

Lovely day!!
