We got a slow start this morning. The girls seemed to sleep in a bit - Madeline slept in later then Emma and that never happens! So the rest of the morning was spent just tidying up the house a bit since we knew that daddy was going to be home and catching up on some laundry.
We finally made it out the door to the gym. Got in a pretty good workout. Tested out one of my favorite warm weather activities, walking. I rekindled a relationship with the Treadmill and that felt great!
The girls and I ambled home, whipped up some lunch and made our way to naps. Again, Madeline slept great, Emma not so much. I think that both girls are in some sort of growth stage. However, it effects them very differently. It is making Emma crabbier and whinier and Madeline happy as a lark.
Just after naps, two eager little babes got to run out and give daddy big kisses after arriving home from lovely WI. Shortly after that our awesome friends with their new little man arrived. Oh, the excitement!!! We couldn't have been happier to meet this beautiful little guy. But, I am pretty sure that Madeline and Emma were about 5x more excited then we ever could be.
Emma was thrilled to give him a bottle and hold him all by herself. And when Madeline realied a baby was here, she lost it into "baby mode". Both of my girls go bananas when there is a baby around. It is hard to hold them off. I have a bunch of adorable photos of the girls holding and feeding the little one, but in all of my genius I forgot to get an ok to post them. The photo that I have on here is an edited one of Madeline dazing out while Emma is feeding him.
We had a great time getting to know this little guy and introducing him to his new girlfriends, no, bodyguards, no, wrestling partners, no, hmmmm.....we certainly know that they will be friends and cousins in the heart.
Called it a night with our friends and their little bundle confirming that we will do it again very soon. Jay is packing his suitcase for his next trip to lovely South Dakota for the majority of next week. Love the busy car wash season!!
We are all so excited to have a weekend as a family!
