SO, today is THREE birthdays in our family which is almost too much for Faith to handle. She loves birthdays. Is pretty obsessed with them. At least 50% of her imaginary play is centered around birthdays. So, this is a big day for her. It's our dog Salsa's 8th bday, Aunt B's 30th bday and Aunt S/P's 35th bday. Phew.
Anyway, yesterday the girls spent most of the day outside. I feel like a pretty horrible mommy because both girls, especially Mari, have red shoulders. Ugh. Totally forgot to put sunscreen on them. I didn't even buy sunscreen because of not going to the beach this year (see Matt's earlier post). Luckily, Gma S had aloe to put on them. Anyway, they played in Gma and Z's backyard with the sprinkler and the kiddie pool for most of the afternoon. Much to Gma's delight, they spent a lot of time with their toy watering cans watering Gma's flowers. Then they napped and we went to dinner and then went to the water play area at one of our nicer
county parks. So fun. In fact, so fun that the girls slept until almost 8am this morning! Unheard of, especially for Mari!
Speaking of good nights, the babies went a little over 4 1/2 hours when we first put them down until the first middle of the night feeding! Pretty awesome! And, it was Robby who woke first -- again, unheard of b/c Hannah is usually the one who wakes first!
Ok. I'm off to go do puzzles with the girls and Matt. Tonight, is a bday party for Aunt B (grownups and newborns only while Z babysits for the girls) and tomorrow is the family bday party for Aunt S/P. Later. Steph
