. So after Chris came to bed I got Chloe and took her with me out to the couch to see if she would feel better. Bless her heart while in her bed she would just cry and cough and it was pitiful so what little rest we both got was on the couch. Chris had been with her for a little while and decided he would try putting her to bed and that was when we heard her crying again and I got up with her. Hopefully tonight will be a better night.
My poor girl just got drenched by her big sister. Chloe is such a good sport about it and did not even cry. If it had been Emma she would have been screaming and in tears. They have such a good time taking baths together. They were so funny I had to shoot some pics. Today the girls went with their Mammy and Pop Pop and spent the day with them. They came early so they could take Emma to the story time at the library. Jan said she absolutely loved it. I will have to start taking her and Chloe. They also went to the park and had a nice picnic and just had a really good day. I stayed home and did some house cleaning. I have gotten so behind in my housework and did not realize how aweful it was. I went to Target and Walmart and got some new throw pillows for the living room. The ones I already had are old and torn and have stuff all over them from Emma and us laying on them. The new ones were much needed and they are a pretty blue color which brightens up the room. I also went by Home Depot to get a couple of dome light fixtures to go in Emma's room and the Bathroom. Both are bare and since we are going to be fixing the house up to sell needed to get them. I found some pretty flowering plants too to brighten up the rooms. They make me feel happy and I love things that make me feel happy.
We went over to Jan and Troys for Father's day and had a very nice cook out. They had gotten Emma and Chloe an inflatable pool and toys to play in and Emma had such a blast. The water was a little cool for Chloe and so she watched untill she decided she was going to take a nap. We had gotten Troy a t-shirt that said Granpas are dads without rules and we thought it was just perfect for him. Chris got some much needed pants and shirts and lots of love from his girls. On Saturday we went over to Mamaws to celebrate her birthday which was friday and had a good time with her playing outside and spending time together. I happen to forget my camera so was not able to get any pics. Emma has come down with a cold and has been coughing terribly at night and had to get up with her the last two nights. Hopefully this is only a cold and will go away soon. poor thing she sounds so hoarse while she talks. Well I hope everyone had a good weekend !
Here are some cute pics of my girls. I had come in to get Chloe after her nap and this cutie is what I found. While Chloe was napping, Emma and I went outside so I could play with my camera. Emma has gotten where she just does not want to sit still and look at the camera and I can hardly ever get her to smile for me anymore. I have been reading my photography books but I feel like I am not getting anywhere and do not know much more than I knew before. I am so glad it is Friday. It is not much different for me than any other day except for going out to dinner and dropping the girls off with their Mammy and Pop Pop, but I look forward to all of that. I love that Chris is home on the weekends because I get to see him and I get help with the girls and do not have to do it all by myself. I guess in a way it is like a mini vacation. Since Chris has been working so hard to get a huge project up off the ground I have been trying to not ask him to help me so much but sometimes it is so hard. I love my babies and would not give up a single moment with them but there are times I just need me time, and I wish I did not feel guilty about it but I do. We getting ready to start fixing the things that have to be fixed so we can get the house on the market and get a bigger home. We are just tripping over each other here and i cannot stand it anymore. I do not want a mansion, not that we could afford one anyway but I do want something where I will have my space for scrapbooking and photography, and would love an extra room to make into a play room for the girls. They have so many toys that it will not all fit in their rooms. Plus I just hate the cluttered feel and need space, and windows, lots of windows. I know more for me to clean right? I am totally ok with that. There is so much I want our new house to have and will probably will not find one in our price range that will be just right but maybe, you never know. Well I hope everyone will have a good weekend! I am so looking forward to Heather coming in withthe kids. She will be here tonight and we will see her tomorrow. YAY!
Ok so for some reason this pic got posted three times and do not know why. My Emma this morning before school. She was so colorful. She looks forward to going to school on the mornings she goes and was so happy this morning. The other pics are a few days old and Emma loves wearing my shoes of any kind and so had to show that off. This is my dress I got for my birthday with some money I got. I just love it but some people would probably think no thank you. We went out and ate sushi and I wore it and had a lady actually give me a compliment on it. Never expected that. This is not a great pic but it shows the dress.
