Rain Boots

Tuesday morning Dave took the car in to get the tires replaced. I am so glad he did it and I didn't have to. Thankfully he didn't have to wait around too long either. They were super fast.


Kaitlynn and I actually slept in. I feel so lucky to have a little one that sleeps in from time to time. We got up and had an early lunch.


Hasnain come over a little early today. Maryam gave me a birthday gift - a really cute purse and a scarf (that she made). The scarf is beautiful and I love the colors in it. She does great work.


Hasnain and Kaitlynn played pretty well together. Kaitlynn does have problems with sharing from time to time, but considering that a 2 year old can't understand the concept of sharing yet, she does great. Hasnain took a 2 hour nap and Kaitlynn took a 45 minute to 1 hour nap.


After Hasnain left, Kaitlynn and I had dinner, then went to Schnucks. I went to order her birthday cake, but they didn't have one that matched her party theme. When we got home, Kaitlynn took her bath and waited for her daddy to come home.

It was rainy on Tuesday, so I put Kaitlynn's rain boots on her. I couldn't wait for her to wear them and was afraid they would be too small. They are huge on her and fall off of her when she walks. Her pants wouldn't stay down in them either.

Tires

Monday I watched Whitney all day (for 7 hours). She is a pretty good baby. Kaitlynn loves having her over and likes to help with her. We were going to visit my mom, but on the way I needed to pick up some Avon brochures. While driving, something seemed weird, but I didn't think anything of it. After picking up the Avon brochures, something still didn't seem right so I pulled over and checked the tires. The front passenger tire was flat! Thankfully we were close to home. I pulled over after calling Dave to wait for him to take the flat tire off and replace it with the spare. While I was waiting, a police officer pulled up next to me. He waited with me and then after a few minutes asked if I had a jack and a spare tire. He started working on taking off the flat tire, while we waited for Dave. Luckily, I brought a bottle (already made) for Whitney. She drank it and fell asleep. I was parked in front of a house with 2 dogs, so Kaitlynn stayed pretty busy talking about the dogs. The police officer gave Kaitlynn a D.A.R.E. sticker and a "hug-a-bear" stuffed toy.

I was worried about being at home with Whitney and Kaitlynn all day long, but we had a good day. Whitney slept for 2 hours, while Kaitlynn and I had lunch and I called about new tires. We decided to get 4 new tires, instead of just having the one fixed. It is just time to get them all replaced.

After Matt picked Whitney up, Kaitlynn and I ate dinner and laid down. We were both exhausted and I didn't care that it wasn't bedtime. I was hoping Kaitlynn might be out for the night, but she woke up a few hours later. She went back to sleep a few hours later and was out for the night.
