Gee...last week was busier than I thought. On Tuesday, Alia and I went swimming with my friend Becca. On Wednesday, Michelle and Becca came over. Thursday was B's birthday and he wasn't working. On Friday, B and I took Alia to the park. For the 4th we went over to Michelle and Eric's for the afternoon and played Rock Band. Last night, Alia and I went to Fire in the Sky with Michelle and Eric. I think Alia had a really good time. This coming week is going to be really busy too. I'll let you know how it turns out!

So...I usually eat my meals at home on the coffee table while sitting on the floor. When we eat, we typically put Alia in the play yard. This is what I have staring at me the whole time. Isn't she sweet? Although sometimes, like last night, she stares and yells at me.

I don't post a lot because I never think what I do is that interesting, but I was actually pretty busy last week. Tuesday night B and I had dinner with Andy and Erica. They're on vacation and we wanted to hang out with them before they left. On Wednesday, I babysat Caitlyn from across the street. At one point I had to separate her and Alia, for Caitlyn's own good, but it was a pretty good day. Wednesday night, I went to dinner with Bethany. We met at Bangkok Gardens and then walked around downtown and ended up at Sparky's. It was a good night. Thursday night was bible study.
Friday morning I went shopping at Old Navy and met Michelle there. I got mostly clothes for Alia and a couple things for myself. Then we each went and picked up our husbands and went to lunch at Murry's. Alia had an appointment in the afternoon.
Yesterday morning we went and helped David and Sandi pack up the moving van. There were a lot of people there. I had fun using the drill to take off the cabinets' child locks. I'll miss them. They're good people. I don't have any plans for this week yet, but Thursday is B's birthday.

Let's see...school was out June 2nd. June 3, 4, and 5 Alia stayed home with me. We took some walks, played outside a little, and just chilled. Last week I had math meetings all week, so Alia went to daycare. Alia is back home with me now. Yesterday we didn't really do anything. Today, I've done a bit of cleaning (house cleaning and poop cleaning unfortunately). Thursday and Friday, she will go into daycare. I'll probably do more cleaning then. My mom is coming in this Friday. Her and my dad's best friends will also be in the area this weekend. We are going to go to a beer festival in Hermann on Saturday. I hope we have a good time (I'm sure we will). Bible study has started back up. We are studying Esther. B and I started going to small group on Sundays too. Our car needed work done. Hopefully, nothing else will need to be done to it for a long time. That's about all for now. :)
