Life Lately

Life Lately has been crazy busy. After my Salt Lake trip, I felt like I came home to a million and one different things to do. Jet lag finally settled in, but I had to be at work, the girls had activities, and life had to go on. 

DJ's mom flew in to keep the girls while I was in Salt Lake. DJ also had an away football game at Toledo, so we were thankful that she was willing to make the trip to stay with the girls! They don't see their Nana often enough, but she sure did spoil them while they were here! She joined us Monday after school for all of their activities, and then we headed to the Rose District for dinner. 

Tuesday night, all of the girls participated in the TU pom clinic. Gretchen and Megan had a blast, and about half way in, Adalyn was over it. She just preferred to be running around on the field rather than paying attention! She would sit with me for a while, and then go back on the field, dance, and then run, and then repeat the cycle over again. 

All of the pom clinic girls :) 

Wednesday afternoon, I decided that we just needed to be home. I put on comfy clothes and laid down with Adalyn on the couch and watched Elena. 

Cuddles after a weekend away, did me some good. 

And check out this fun shirt! We were able to choose a shirt from the Silver Retreat, and I picked this one :) 

Megan joined us in our room about 4 am on Friday morning, and an hour later, we discovered she had a 101 temperature. I oiled her up, and later got ready for work. Thankfully, DJ doesn't have to be in until noon on Fridays, so he stayed home with her and took her to the doctor (viral infection due to allergies) and by that afternoon she was much better! Her fever broke within a few hours of coming down with one, and she was crazy hyper. I met DJ to pick her up, and drove through CFA for a salad. I had gift cards for a free cookie, so I bought her a cookie, and then we headed to the grocery store for a few things.... when you're a working mom, you have to take advantage of any time you have to be productive. And, since I knew that her infection was just due to allergies, I felt safe in taking her to the store :) 

After last week, we're finally starting to return to normal! It was good being gone but crazy trying to catch up once I was home again!
