A Nice Saturday

Lily woke up early to go to school where she made chicken and pork sausage, which she thought was disgusting.  She did, however, manage to enjoy being there.  At home, the girls slept-in until 9:00 which was great for me because I’ve been feeling very fatigued with my allergies kicking in.  When they woke up I fed them and then we played around the house and I fed them again. Abou that time Lily came home and we all ate together.  Mary then went down for her nap and Lily and Lydia plugged into their respective Ipads.

Lily has been absolutely hooked to Downton Abbey and Lydia wathes kids’ shows on netflix (Thanks Clark and Swathi!).  I can see why Lily is so hooked because I’ve watched some of it with her and it is really engaging.  I particularly like the character Mr. Bates.  Lily announced this evenening that she has watched a whole season of Downton Abbey in one day, which is true, although each seaon only has about six or seven episodes.

While Mary napped I made great progress on a personal writing project I’m working on and then we all got up and went to Costco.  We’ve wanted to go for months and we finally made it!  My favorite thing we got was our four pound case of strawberries, Yum!

Back at home we ate chicken, blueberries and chips outside for dinner.   Afterwords I took the girls to the park while Lily rested and watched more Downton Abbey.  I’m really glad she got to kick back today. She has so many demands during the week that she didn’t have any chance to recover from being sick. I hope the R&R she got today will help her get over her bug and be ready for the week ahead.

Pictures!
