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!

Internet down

If you're wondering why I haven't posted, it's because our internet has been down. According to our internet company (who shall remain nameless), we need a new modem. I spent over an hour on the phone with them before they came to that conclusion. Its going to take 3-5 business to get here so we won't get it until sometime during the week. It's pretty frustrating but oh well, I don't have the energy to be annoyed at this point. I let them know that I'm not paying for anything until it's fixed. At least I have internet on my phone, which is how I'm posting now but it's a pain doing it this way and I don't know how to add pictures. I'm going to just wait until the internet is back up to post again, I'm sure I'll have a lot to write about at that point.
