Nice Saturday, Grumpy Baby
Ah Saturday. So nice to not having to get up at a stupid time in the morning and more or less get to sleep in. Bella got up at around 6 but Josh always gets up with her in the mornings. I stayed in bed until 9, but anytime Bella would start crying it would wake me up, so I just kind of dozed between 6 and 9 this morning, but that’s okay because I got to stay in bed lol.
The weather this morning was crappy, but it ended up being a really nice day come mid-afternoon. We went out to Lone Pine Farms this morning; met up with Danny and Marie, and Jeremy and Heather. I wish we ate more fresh foods, but between us being picky eaters and not having a ton of money to spend on that type of stuff we just don’t. We did get some things like red potatoes and tomatoes and stuff though. After that we went around to the backside of the customer area where they keep these pens of goats that you can feed. The kids liked that but Bella was a bit unsure of it all. Of course she can’t just run up to them and feed them since she can’t walk. I didn’t give her any food to give to the goats because I was afraid she’d just try to eat it herself lol. After that they headed over to a big play area, but again Bella can’t walk and there wasn’t anything baby friendly, so after a bit we took off.
We headed over to Shopko and got Bella some socks and shoes. She doesn’t really have any socks because she hates them, and shoes for the same reason. But we felt bad today that it was cold out and we didn’t have anything to put on her feet so we got her 2 pairs of shoes and some socks. She hated having them on, so we’re going to have to make it a daily thing I think so that she gets use to them.
After Shopko we met up with everyone at Costco and bought some stuff for the BBQ and just some other food stuffs. It’s been forever since we’ve been there, but you can rarely walk out of that place having spent less than $100. I got these really good dark chocolate covered Acai berries that I’m going to take with me to work as a snack.
We all came back over to our in-laws house and hung out for awhile, enjoyed the sunshine and ate food. I took the red potatoes and cut them up, then mixed them with melted butter, salt, pepper and garlic spread seasoning and baked them in the oven for about 25 minutes. I’d never done anything like that before but I wanted to try something new and they actually came out pretty good. Next time I’ll have to add more garlic though.
Poor Bella was just kind of grumpy and fussy all day, because her top 2 teeth are finally coming through. Her gums are so swollen in two big bumps; Josh says you can’t even feel the teeth anymore because they’re so swollen. And she only took one short nap today, because with kids and people walking through the house and just generally being noisy she really couldn’t sleep. I’m hoping she’ll sleep well tonight, but because of her gums I’m not sure if that’ll happen.
People stayed for a few hours and the last of them went home around 7pm. Austin is staying the night tonight which I’m fine with, but the only thing he ever wants to do is play Xbox. The boys are going to go work on the boat, again, after we drop Bella off at my parents for the night, so I’m not sure if Austin will go with, or stay here to play games. I don’t know if the internet is still turned on at our house anymore, so he wouldn’t be able to play over there. I wish Nicole’s other kids were as well behaved as Austin, but I guess they aren’t her blood kids so what can you expect. The boys want to try and get the boat all done so they can take it out tomorrow. I don’t know if that’ll happen though, besides the fact that Memorial Day probably isn’t the best day to take the boat out to the lake since I can only imagine how crowded it’ll be out there.
It’s been a fairly boring night. Normally I would play GW after Bella goes to bed, but Blue isn’t around tonight and he’s basically the only person I enjoy playing with anymore so I figured there was no point. I’ve been playing some bingo on Pogo.com for the last hour, but I think I’m going to call it a night and try to get some sleep before Bella wakes up.
Ciao!
