Mommy and Lula day...what to do?!

Girls Only Today...Again

Today is one of those especially tough days when Tim's been gone all week, and then has to leave again on Sunday. He got up early, before Lula was even awake, so he didn't have to leave the night before. Try explaining that to a 2.5 year old! We miss him already, but what is really hard for me, is knowing how much he misses us. We are so proud of him though, such a great role model for Lula.

This also leaves us with a big question, what will Lula and mommy do today??? It is actually going to be a nice day and we're so ready for spring! Perhaps we run some errands and play outside, or go to Stony Point or Short Pump mall where there are lots of things to explore outside (and inside for mommy). Church, gym, errands...and fun! Let's get our day started little lady :)

Whare daddy? Daddy...whare are yuuuuuooo....

Yesterday was one of those days; a day where the rubber meets the road on this whole traveling daddy thing. Lula had a great day at Ms. Debbie's - but was wild and crazy when we got home. I had a typical nutty Tuesday (it's just always my crazy day), and was both mentally and physically exhausted. I picked up Lula and we headed home - well - after chasing her down for 15 minutes across Ms. Debbie's yard! She was chatty on the way home and in a great mood.

And then we pull in the driveway. "Uh-oh, whare daddeee?" Breaks my heart to try and explain that he is working, but she shrugs it off, calls for him again - "daaadeeee, whare are yuuoooo...." LOL, it is too cute! Little did I know I'd be wishing I could call for him too - my baby girl was a wild one last night. An overall good mood, just wired like she was on 50 packs of M&Ms.

Plus, neither of us tend to sleep well Tim's first night out, so as usual she went to bed late - but not just late. She went to bed upset too. She was kicking and screaming (claiming "not tired" the whole time), yet she was fast asleep within minutes. Not a bad night per se...but made for a rough morning! Check out my kid, she looks like she partied all night and drank to much apple juice! I should've put a SKI in her cup. Ha!!

No photos, please. Dang paparazzi.

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband, Tim! You are the best - Lula and I could not ask for more. We are truly blessed as a family. Who would have thought that in four years we would move across the country, have a sweet baby girl, get an even bigger TV, and the list goes on! And amazingly, through it all.......we still haven't had ONE fight. LOL....he he he....

And what is the silver lining to having your husband travel all week? More time to shop for his anniversary gift! Don't worry honey, I'll find you something nice at the gas station on my way home tomorrow.
