thursday, it was our usual routine, stella and i joined betty and austen for a walk around memorial followed a lot of playtime at the park. we stopped for some tacos on the way home and filled up our bellies....this then lead to a very good nap time. we had some friends over that afternoon for a little playtime at the house, since the ground was soaked from all the rain earlier in the week. it was fun to see four little girlies running around the house. stella did "ok" with sharing her toys, but do not mess with her dolls. haha.
friday, stella and i headed to fundamentally toys to get our friend rush a blast pad (this toy is legit, enjoyment for both parents and kiddos), but quickly got wrapped up in the dinosaurs and train set. we played there for nearly 2 hours (the employees were super nice and even gave stella a balloon :) ). we came home and decided to skip nap time (weeee!) and played in the sunshine all afternoon. her newest obsession is airplanes, when she sees or hears one she immediately points to the sky and with all the excitment she can muster shrieks "a plane! a plane!"
saturday was a lazy day, kyle and stella laid in bed watching toy story until almost 9am! that afternoon kyle had a softball practice that stella, richard and i went and watched. we came home, stella napped and kyle and i laid on a blanket in the front yard and took a nap. once we all woke up we headed to whole foods on a foodie mission. bacon wrapped shrimp kabobs and sirloin satays were on the menu. i also tried the king cake while we were there. hollllly mother. best thing i've ever eaten. will be picking one up in a few weeks...i suggest you do the same (get the berry flavor). richard joined us for the evening and we rented 30 minutes or less which was surprisingly funny. of course, fell asleep by 9pm. old folks.
sunday was another lazy morning (surprise surprise), i met kelly for a pedicure which was so awesome, and then we headed to rush's birthday party. stella got in the big bouncy for the first time. she also sprinted full force towards the pool about 20 times. the girl is fearless. we came home and watched monica on cupcake wars!!!!! the little bakery she works for made it on the show...it was so amazing to see her in action on the big screen.
this week started off so fun. claire and wade came over last night with some homeslice pizza dough fresh from austin and we made 3 delicious pizzas. brie and proscuitto, chicken sausage and mozzerella, and proscuitto and arugula. so amazingly good and filling. we started watching inglorious bastards and basically all fell asleep.
