We did some Mommy/Daughter/Sister bonding today. Jim had plans to help a friend this weekend and took a little road trip today which left me a whole day with the girls. I wanted to do something fun. We've been wanting to see Tangled so I decided to leave the baby with Pappy and take the older three to the movies. The girls have only been a couple of times before and it was actually Livi's first time. My mom and one of my sisters decided to come as well.
The movie is really cute. I think it's at the top of my list of Disney pics. The girls were totally enthralled. We saw it in 3D which made it even more mesmorizing. After the movie we picked up some dinner and went back to my parents, caught the end of the football game, smothered Chloe in kisses, and popped in another movie.
As I type this Ava is sleeping beside me on the couch. Livi and Chloe are in dreamland upstairs and Jordan is STILL awake. We are having a "sleepover" which I guess just means that we are staying up late and the girls will get to sleep in my room. They were super excited about that. Usually I'm begging them to stay in their own beds, so they recognize the golden opportunity for what it is!
Thanksgiving break is almost over. One more day to sleep in and then it's back to the old routine. It's fine with me. Actually it won't be back to the old routine completely, because Jim and I are "getting fit" together. He does a "biggest loser" type thing with the guys at work with cash as a motivating factor. I'm just tired of feeling tired. I feel old, flabby and I'm scared to go to the doctor for a physical. I really need to whip myself into shape. Sigh.
Well...back to the sleepover! :)
