After Bible study I invited Amanda to come over with Lucy and Evelyn. Haley had been acting a little tired at Bible study so I thought I would maybe have to put her down for a nap while they were here but she immediately gained a second wind when she saw them coming into the driveway. They ended up eating lunch with us and playing until 2pm. Their visit came to quite an abrupt end, I will tell you, don't worry.
I just left Haley with her shirt on and no panties because she seems to do best when she can just run and go on the potty whenever she wants. She went on the potty as soon as we got home but kind of went downhill when the Caldwells came. First she had an accident over by her kitchen but she did come to me and tell me that she had gone so we went over and I had her help clean it up. Then, at about 1:45 or so, she and Lucy were playing in the living room when Lucy started shrieking. I assumed Haley had taken a toy from her because Lucy usually shrieks when Haley takes her toys. We looked over at Lucy who was standing there screaming. Haley was standing about a foot away from her but was not holding anything so it didn't look like she had taken a toy. That was when Amanda called out, "Oh no! Haley pooped!"
Sure enough, Haley had pooped on our area rug and Lucy had stepped in it! Lucy took two steps with the poop on her foot and then realized it wasn't coming off and started to scream. Evelyn started to cry when she saw Lucy crying. Haley just kept saying "Lucy, yucky, bleh. As if Lucy had stepped in Haley's boo on purpose." It was so nasty because it was in her toes and everything. Amanda took her to the tub and washed her off and she calmed down. Once the initial shock was over, and the rug and foot were cleaned, it was so funny. The best part was that Lucy's reaction seemed to indicate that she knew exactly what had just happened and was super grossed out by it. In reality, I think Lucy was just super mad that it wasn't coming off of her foot, not that it was Haley's boo. After that they headed out and I put Haley down for a nap. Emily had been asleep in her swing and continued sleeping through the whole commotion.
The girls woke up around 4:15 and at 4:30 we headed to Trinity Christian school to watch Ella and Chloe's basketball game. Ella and Chloe are the two 8th grade girls that go to our church, Ella baby-sat for us the other night. Haley had a great time pointing them out as they played and Emily stayed in her infant seat the whole time. After the game we came home and finished putting a meal together for the Watson family. The Watsons are the family with the trisomony 18 baby that I have mentioned on here several times, her name is Claire. Claire has been doing okay, her latest bout has been with pneumonia but she is doing much better now and will be discharged tomorrow. She continues to mystify doctors with her amazing recoveries.
We packed up the dinner, delivered it to the Watsons and then came straight home to eat dinner ourselves. After dinner I gave the girls baths and then put Emily right to bed, she was so tired. I let Haley stay up a little later to read books and then I put her down too.
Haleyism:
When Haley wakes up from her naps now she goes to the door and starts yelling 'open the door!' over and over.
Emilyism:
Emily did not sleep well on Wednesday night again. I am going to be starting her on solid foods tomorrow or Saturday to see if it helps!
| Sorry this is blurry but Haley was walking around in my shoes the other day. I forgot to take pictures today! |
Hahahahahahahaha ooooo my word the horror story has me buckled over laughing
ReplyDeleteI would think that having a rambunctious crazed monkey jumping delightedly in a well-appointed, lovely new crib might have been just as horrifying for the soon-to-be mom (is it Katie?)!
