Today I started the day with not feeling so well so it was very difficult to be the happy and peppy Mommy that I wanted to be for Erika. I was annoyed that it was finally Saturday and then I didn't feel good. A lot of these pictures are taken from my spot on the couch! Peter had to work all day and so it was just Erika and I...and baby Christopher!
It was almost as if Erika knew I didn't feel well because she was so good today. I didn't know how I would make it through the day but with her help, I did! She did what she was told and didn't expect a whole lot out of me which was really nice. As the day progressed I did start to feel a bit better. And once she took her nap and I took mine too, then I really started to feel better.
I had the pressure of buying a gift that was due at church tomorrow for a needy child. So I had to drag both of us out to Kohl's for a little bit to buy the gift. Again, she was great! We went in, did what we had to do and left!
Something Erika is very into right now is putting all her doll's to sleep. Sometimes our living room looks hysterical. She will have all these dolls and assorted other things laid down and covered up because they are resting. Or sometimes she puts them all on the steps to get upstairs. She makes me laugh all the time.
Our tree is up and semi-decorated. And well...that is as good as it is going to get this year. I really have very little energy and am barely making it through each day. also, I keep thinking about putting all the stuff away after I have the baby. So basically we have the tree and the stockings!
At night we made some Gingerbread teddy bear cookies but that is a whole
separate post in itself!
