I&#8217;ve been keeping track, and I went on antibiotics at the end of April\/beginning of May because I had had a stuffy nose since January. After barely a month of reprieve, it feels like my sinus infection is back for good. I am trying not to feel depressed, especially since I know as trials go, this is pretty minor.<\/p>\n<p>Abe didn&#8217;t have a great day either, and his allergies are hitting pretty hard.<\/p>\n<p>I baked muffins with Lydia this morning and then it felt like we spent a lot of time eating outside at various times throughout the day. In the afternoon, Lydia begged to paint, so I took the girls to the basement so Lydia could paint. After that, I collapsed on the couch with the girls and watched\u00a0<em>Peter Rabbit<\/em> until Abe came home&#8211;an hour early! Hooray!<\/p>\n<p>We foraged for dinner and I disappeared to the basement to iron and get laundry done. When I emerged, I found Lydia sulking in her room after her seventh tantrum today (I counted), Mary playing with her binkies in her pack&#8217;n play, and Abe passed out on the floor. He mumbled that he&#8217;d hit a wall, and I took that as my cue to lie down (again) until we all decided it was time to do something with our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Abe and I spent the rest of the evening organizing the girls&#8217; clothes and sorting old\/seasonally-inappropriate clothing into bins. We have been on an organizing kick lately, and it felt sooooooooo good to have that done.<\/p>\n<p>When that project was done, it was already 9:40pm, and so we thought it wise to send our tired children to bed.<\/p>\n<p>After\u00a0<em>Fablehaven<\/em>, I am in the mood to get addicted to something again, so I think we&#8217;re going to watch\u00a0<em>Downtown Abbey<\/em> now. I&#8217;ve never watched it and am really excited.<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Here are a few pictures I took of Mary encroaching on Lydia&#8217;s territory:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/IMG_8152.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3628\" alt=\"IMG_8152\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/IMG_8152-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/IMG_8155.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3626\" alt=\"IMG_8155\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/IMG_8155-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/IMG_8153.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3625\" alt=\"IMG_8153\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/IMG_8153-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I felt kind of discouraged today.
