All Caught up

Well I have officially caught up the 'ol blog!  I honestly never thought I would but I made it my priority project while Jason is gone!  He's hopefully going to be home this week so it's perfect timing that I cross this off my to do list!!!

He will have been gone almost 7 weeks by the time he gets home and I have to say I am pretty worn out!  This is the first time I'm flying solo with both girls and they have been REALLY good but there's just a lot less "me" time!  We are all very ready for him to get home!!!

A few highlights of the past few days:

I got Tessa a swing for our backyard and she just loves it...I think she would swing all day if she had it her way!

I put Tessa in this little robe for the first time and had fun comparing pics to when Riley wore it! Riley is 3 months in this pic and Tessa is 9 months!

 
My dear friend Nicki welcomed her sweet baby girl Allie on Thursday!  Tessa and I went to visit her on Friday and Tessa just about jumped out of my arms in glee over her new friend..it was pretty cute!

 Jason and I love to watch Shark Tank...in fact there are several episodes on the DVR for us to watch when he gets home!  Well...back in April or so they had a couple come on with a sippy cup they had invented...the Lolla Cup.  Well a store in Davis was selling it but it was super back ordered because of all the publicity they got on the show but I was able to pick up two Lolla Cups for Tessa on Friday!  She got the hang of it pretty quickly and so far we love it!

 Riley slept in until 8:00 this morning and Tessa slept until 8:30...it was amazing and that has never happened before so I was definitely taking advantage of the extra hour or more of sleep...especially because I am so bad about staying up too late when Jason is gone!

Riley had soccer this morning and then she wanted to help clean her Daddy's truck before he gets home...what a sweet girl!  She also asked if she could earn a few dollars so she did have ulterior motives but hey the girl is smart!

Glad to be back and all caught up!
