I put it off long enough - it's time to post again. We had a pretty good 4th. We spent the day at Marcie's house. It started off kind of cool and rainy in the morning, but the weather cleared up and it was a beautiful day. The kids had fun playing and swimming, and I just kind of hung out. Then that night, Sarah and Emily stayed with Grammy and Dave and I went out (separately). One of my bestest friends whom I miss like crazy was in town for a visit. Theresa and Garett had to come home for a wedding, so she made time to go out with me for a while Friday night. I had a good time. Dave was supposed to go out with his friend Jason who was also visiting from out of town, but instead he just ended up on the deck at Doug and Sandy's. He still had a good time though.
Saturday we went to Mohomet to visit our friend Kayte and her twin boys Will and Luke and watch the Cubs game. We had a good time even though Kerry Wood blew the save in the 9th. Also on the subject of the Cubs, Sarah's favorite song is Go Cubs Go! I have it on my phone and when we were in wal-Mart the other day, she kept making me play it for her over and over again. She will come up to me sometimes and tell me she wants to "listen to baseball on the phone" and she means she wants to hear the song. I hope it can't be considered child abuse that we are raising her for a lifetime of heartache and disappointment as a Cubs fan ...
Sunday we took the girls to Champaign, mainly so Sarah could ride the "horsies." She loves the carousel at the mall and she rode it twice. Then on the way back home, we stopped in Catlin to visit with Dave's family.
I am happy to report that Sarah continues to do fantastic in gymnastics. On Tuesday, she went with Miss Barbara all by herself and she didnt cry at all. I am so proud of her.
Well, I started a diet on Sunday. I decided that since Emily was almost 5 months old that it was time to stop blaming being fat on having a baby. Wish me luck!
