The 4th of July was on Wednesday this year so I decided to take the rest of the week off. I had nothing planned and that is what made the idea so appealing.
We spent the 4th at Jenny's swimming and grilling out and that evening was spent in the AC relaxing. Thursday, Avery and I went to get her some new books and a trip to Target (our favorite spot). That evening my parents watched Avery for us so we could go out. Kelsey, Emily and I went out for sushi and then for drinks at the grill bar. Stanely was out which is a rare occasion! Stanley worked on our family farm my whole life up until he had a stroke my freshman year in college. It was a Perfect Night!
Friday, we ventured out to Monkey Joe's. Avery loved the bounce house, but next time bring other kiddos with us....this momma is to big to get in and "pretend" to be young. Saturday we went to market and sweated our a**** off!!! We then headed to Bloomington for a baby shower for Katie Sparks. All the cousins got to play together and it is soo much fun watching them.
Sunday- Mom, Avery and I froze corn. Josh was working so we hoped for the best with Avery not having 100% of our attention today. Well, I think we did ok....she only fell out of the chair once(ouch), smashed her finger a half dozen times, smashed goldfish, blueberries requiring sweeping 3 times, bumped her head on the table once and unrolled one roll of toilet paper. She did a great job at keeping herself busy. Good thing we don't mind messes! We ended the evening with Ritter's so all were happy!
Back to work.....UGH!
