Monday was an exciting day because Mimi was coming! We spent most of the day cleaning up or playing with Libby. Mimi's flight was supposed to get in around 5:30 but it ended up getting cancelled so Mom got a new flight to Tyler Texas that didn't get in until 9:15. We ended up eating at the Jalapeno Tree while we waited because we had been planning on taking her to dinner anyways. Libby slept in her infant seat during the whole dinner which made having three children seem deceptively easy. After we ate we went home and played for a bit and then we changed the girls into their pajamas and drove to Tyler. There was a little hang-up with the plane so the flight was a bit delayed. There's a Wal-mart really close to the Tyler airport so we went there for a while to kill time until the flight got in. Then we went to the airport and hung out a little more until the flight got in. The girls were getting pretty tired but they did pretty well. The only hiccup was when they were crawling around the back of an ATM machine and Emily kind of got stuck. David and Haley ended up coaxing her out but from that time on the ATM machine was letting out a really high-pitched sound. I think it thought that someone was attempting to rob it. The girls were pretty excited to see Mimi, especially Libby. Unfortunately her luggage had not made it so we had to wait around for a little bit so she could tell the guy what it looked like. Poor Mimi, she had a long day and then no luggage to boot. We drove home, I think at least Emily fell asleep on the way home, we can't remember if Haley did.

On Tuesday I got up and went to my MOPS meeting with Libby. I was given a free pass and didn't really have to do too much at the meeting since I had Libby so that was nice. David didn't have to work so he and Mimi stayed home with the girls. They ended up going out to the Longview airport and picking up Mimi's suitcase. In the afternoon I caught up with Mimi while the girls napped. Then we laid low the rest of the day which was nice. Mimi and I sat outside while the girls played (except Libby). Libby slept most of the afternoon which I should have realized was not a good sign. At one point I realized that she had been sleeping for four hours so I woke her up to feed her but she was still super sleepy. It was good we had a slow day because Libby ended up being awake for most of Tuesday night.
WEDNESDAY I had hoped to get up for Bible study fellowship but Libby had been up every one to two hours Tuesday night and Haley and Emily must have received the same memo because David was up a ton with them too. We decided to skip BSF and try to sleep in a little bit. After Libby's big night she was pretty tired for the day so I spent a lot of the day trying to keep her awake so she would be tired for the night. Mimi went out and ran some errands during naptime, she was probably ready to get out a little bit! When she got back she made a dish for us to take to Wednesday night potluck. David was working all afternoon so he just met us at church. Libby got passed around a lot at church. I actually got to eat by myself for the first time in a while because David had Emily. Speaking of Emily, she was kind of out of sorts for most of Wednesday. I'm still not exactly sure what her problem was but today I found that her molars are coming in/almost in so I think that may have something to do with it. I think she's also adjusting to the new baby. After church we came home and put the girls to bed and then we went to bed ourselves.
