2018 :: 16/52





Monday was Al's birthday. we didn't do much but did run to the grocery store as a family and he chose ordered pizza for his meal. Tuesday was decently nice out so we went for a family walk in which we had to try to avoid the non-shoveled sidewalks and ramps because we still had a bunch of snow. Tuesday night we went out to dinner for the first time since having Tova with matt, Jodi, cam and chloe. we went to wagner's where Jodi plays volleyball so we sat out in the dome where the kids could run around and where tova crying wouldn't bother anyone. but she only cried on the drive there and the drive home, and slept almost the whole time we were there so that's good.

Wednesday morning mom came down and worked from our house so that in the afternoon i could bring all the boy clothes i'd hung and priced to the consignment sale. I've been to this sale a bunch of times to buy but haven't consigned yet. so i hauled in all 7 totes, then hauled them to the table to get checked, then hauled each one to the sale racks and placed them all (all the carts were being used). it didn't take too long tho and hopefully all or most of our stuff sells and we make a bunch! mom, trevor, tova and i got a walk in in the morning even though it was a bit chilly and windy still. then mom left after supper (Al worked 1p-1a wed and 11a-11p thurs). Tova only woke up once both Tuesday night and Wednesday night to eat! although she was really gassy and kind of grumpy (for her) on Wednesday.

Thursday morning trevor woke up with a swollen eye lid. it went down and was just swollen a little bit for a couple of days. after nap, we went for a walk and eventually met up with jenny and her 3 girls to walk with them. then we walked to their house so i could nurse tova and jenny could nurse klare. after a little play time, jenny drove us home in her van (all 7 of us and our stroller got into her van :]). it was finally nice out!!

Friday morning grandpa peter came and stayed until Saturday. i went shopping at the consignment sale and got most of the things i was looking for: dresses, rompers, a swim suit, and robeez shoes for tova, and shorts, summer play shoes, and pjs for trevor. plus a couple new books and hot wheels tracks for trevor, too. we went for a walk and played outside since it was finally spring-like.

it was a gorgeous weekend so most of Saturday and sunday were spent outside. mom came down Saturday morning and stayed until sunday afternoon. we went on a walk which included stopping to get some hot dog buns so we could have brats on the grill! we got lots of outside stuff done like cleaning the garage, getting toys & stuff out of the shed, and getting the patio furniture out of the porch.

sunday morning, mom and i ran back to the consignment sale for the half off day and i got tova a couple pairs of shoes, found some brand new clothes for trevor, and got some more books. then we came home and played outside all morning and had lunch on the patio. tova was having a tummy issue day and didn't sleep much. mom left after lunch, tova finally slept, and trevor took a 2 hour nap! then we went outside again for a little bit, picked up toys, and then went over to matt & Jodi's house for supper. matt made wings on his new grill and they were awesome! trevor even ate a bunch! the kids played outside a bunch, tova was good, then home for bed. Tova took almost an hour to fall asleep but she slept good at night!
