I lost my voice today. Not fun but oh well. I had to tell everyone on the phone who I was because they couldn't tell who I was by my voice. It was bad! It was a pretty lazy day though but I did get out tonight with a friend and we went to a lia sophia party. It was fun to see some friends though I couldn't talk a whole lot. It was fun though to get away from the screaming children.
So the weaning has begun! I dropped a feeding today so LM only ate 3 times. I gave him two small cups of milk. He liked the first cup but not the second as much. I hope he does like milk since DD hated it. It was hard trying to get her to eat a lot of cheese, yogurt, and paying for pedisure for her. I'm happy to soon be a free woman for awhile though! DH's planned out our vacation for April and we are going to go to Mexico with 3 ruins (99% sure). I'm excited to leave the kids behind (well two of them...as one of my friends pointed out to me) and have some adult time. It will be the first time since having DD too.
Today DD did great in nursery at church but was horrible in sacrament meeting. She was cry/fuss when sitting in our pew so I would take her out and sit her on my lap. She was sit great and be quiet (only once did she fight me) but then as soon as I took her back in she would throw a fit again. It was 4 sessions I was up and down. One person commented that I was getting my exercise today! That was for sure. My back was killing me all day and that wasn't helping having to carry her back and forth too.
LM did great though and slept almost all of church and only fussed when it was time to eat. A friend even took him for a while to hold him so I was able to sit by myself which was a treat (though there was only 5 minutes of church left at that point). My Sunday School class was great too. The kids answered the questions and were so good. We got done 5 minutes early which was amazing since I started late (I was showing my friend who was visiting from Illinois the kids). Overall it was a great day at church.
We came home ate lunch/snack and all took a nap (though DH went off for a home teaching visit). It was so nice to sleep finally. I even fed LM while laying down and he didn't spew all over me. Yeah!! I may try that once tonight too if I'm feeling brave. We all went to choir practice but we dropped DD off at my friend's house (DD's best friend's house) for her husband to watch the girls for us. I finally feel like I'm getting the music down! That's always a wonderful feeling.
Finally tonight we were able to eat the meal the Young Women dropped off Thursday night. It was pretty good. The Dessert was to die for. I'll get the recipe but basically it's just (ice cream sandwiches, whip cream, Reece's peanut butter cups layered twice)! YUMMY.
DD was so cranky this evening. I think it was from her getting woken up from her nap so we could go to choir. She was crying for no reason and throwing a ton of fits! It was crazy. LM has been great! Thankfully they aren't both having a bad day.
It looks like DH's going to Ireland instead of Spain. He bought the tickets tonight. They are flying out (he and his brother) for only $377 including taxes (which were like $100! I thought that was a lot for taxes). We are driving down to San Jose and they are flying out from San Fran. I will be staying with my SIL while there so I pray it's sunny and I get a mini vacation too, though we will be left with 6 kids! It will be nuts but hopefully fun.
This evening while I was holding LM DH commented on his crazy hairline. Over the last week he has lost so much hair and now has a little patch on the crown of his head and the bottom of his scalp. I think he looks a little like Mr. T! It's hilarious.
After all the pictures in the flowers the kids loved all the play stuff after lunch.
