Daddy daughter dates

The last few days have been pretty uneventful. I've just been working a lot and spending time with Liv as much as I can. We went to the store today and she was blowing kisses at everyone, I have no idea where she learned that from because I didn't teach her but it was really cute. She suckered me into buying her this little critter stuffed animal, she was so excited when she saw it because I always read her the little critter book before bed. She wouldn't put it down at the store but she hasn't touched it since we got home (typical). My sister sent me some pictures from my nephews birthday party and Olivia looks exactly like Paul in this one..

Daddy's twin. (Seriously!)

 Paul has been taking Livy on a lot of dates, here's a few pictures he sent me. 

It's really cute that Olivia loves going out to dinner with Paul, she eats really well and she gets super excited about being in a restaurant. I love getting pictures but it makes me miss her so much! I want to just leave work and hang out with her and Paul. I need money though. For some unknown reason, she has been sleeping terribly! I don't know why but all of a sudden, her schedule is all out of whack. She wakes up a lot during the night and she refuses to nap during the day. She doesn't seem sick at all so I'm not sure what the issue is. I really hope this isn't the end of her napping days, putting her down for a nap keeps me sane. On a totally unrelated note, ever since I got my new phone, the internet on it has been horrible. I tried calling and they had me reset my network settings and clear all my history and cookies (which never works by the way) but it's still super slow and loses connection half the time. It's pretty frustrating because I use my phone for mostly everything, I only go on the computer to update this blog or upload pictures. Okay but anyway, I am really going to attempt getting to bed early tonight! (Wishful thinking.)

Familying

We got our new modem today so our internet is back up! Woohoo! Just in time too because I was starting to have blogging withdrawals. This might be a long post since it's been a while but I will try to recap quickly and hopefully I don't ramble on forever.

On Wednesday my sister in law Melody came to visit from South Carolina. My mom was babysitting Olivia while Paul went to pick her up from the airport. Unfortunately her flight was canceled and she was stuck at the airport for hours. I felt so bad, it must have been a long day for her! She was on stand by and finally got on a plane that night. Paul had to keep Livy awake and bring her to the airport with him pretty late at night. I was stuck working so I couldn't get her but everything worked out alright.

 Running around the airport in her jammies.

Having Mel here was awesome! She helped me with Liv and we even went out one night and had a few drinks. I don't get out much so I got a little sick the next day but I was fine after a few hours. Mel and Paul went out on Saturday while I was working and he ended up getting a little sick on Sunday, I guess we can't hang anymore.

Selfies at the bar ;)!

On Sunday I took Liv to my nephew Jacob's birthday party, it was at a place called Tumble Jungle. There were a bunch of trampolines, play mats, a bouncy house and even a foam pit, Olivia had a blast! My nephew turned four and all the other kids were around the same age, Liv was the youngest so I had to chase her around to make sure she didn't get hurt on anything.

 Jacob's fourth Birthday! How cute is the Ninja Turtles theme!

On Monday we went to the pool for a while, Liv didn't stay for long because the water was so cold. Paul took her home so Mel and I could lay out and try to get a nice tan. Well we must have stayed out for a little too long because I came home with a terrible sunburn! Mel got pretty red too but nothing compared to me!

 Well, at least I got some kind of color! Ouch!

Now here we are today, Tuesday (Right? I have no concept of time lately)! I normally don't work on Tuesdays but since we had Jacob's party on Sunday, I switched shifts with someone. While I was at work tonight, Paul took Olivia on a daddy daughter dinner date (say that five times fast). He sent me some really cute pictures!

 Coloring like a big girl and destroying some avocado.

Things have been a bit hectic around here lately. It was a lot of fun having Melody stay with us, she left this morning and I miss her already! It's a little boring without her, plus she cooked us some very yummy meals. I'm really glad she got to spend some time with us and especially with Olivia. I can't wait until she visits again, hopefully it will be soon!

Happy Birthday Paul!

Today is my lovely husbands birthday so he decided to take the day off from work. I'm really glad we got to spend all day together! We gave him his present in the morning and then my mom brought over an ice cream cake for him (his favorite). Olivia played in her pool for a while and we just hung out. We didn't do anything too exciting but I think we've both been pretty tired so relaxing at home was nice.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAUL! WE LOVE YOU!

Happy Father's Day!

Livy and me took Paul out to dinner yesterday for Father's Day. Olivia was being such a ham, she was smiling and waving at everyone and they all kept saying how cute she was. I was getting a little embarrassed though because she was literally staring at this one guy at the next table for ten minutes (okay maybe more like two minutes but it seemed like forever), he was nice about it though. She surprised me and ate a lot, she always eats better when we're out for some reason. This morning we gave Paul his presents and then we went to my parents house to see my dad. Liv was running around and having fun, she ate a lot of pizza and cookies too. I'm very lucky to have such a great dad and I'm so happy Olivia has an amazing dad as well. She really loves him, every day when he comes home from work and she hears him at the door, she always gets a huge smile across her face, it's so sweet. I hope everyone had a wonderful Father's Day! We had a great weekend, hoping that the weather is nice this week so we can go to the pool or beach one day!

 Daddy and his little twin. My whole world.
