A typical day with us in Pittsburgh

I don't have much to post about today so I thought I would share what my day is like. Weston usually goes to the gym between 7 and 8 and I'm still out cold sleeping. I hear Haylee calling for me anytime between 8 and 9. I feed her, play with her for a little while and then Weston will come home and take over playing with Haylee. I leave for the gym and come back just in time for Weston to go to his daily noon mtg. I feed Haylee again and put her down when he leaves and shower for the day. Weston will come home for lunch at about 1:30 and of course being the great wife that I am I have a hearty lunch all ready for him. Haylee eats her solid meal for the day with him. Then he is off to work. This is what the residents of PA open their door to see. A very nice young man with a big smile on his face ready to install an alarm in their home to keep them safe(I have to put in a plug for him in case any PA people are reading this). When he is gone I have the routine of cleaning up the kitchen and tidying things up and then I hang out with the different girls here. There are a lot of us so sometimes we all get together or I hang out in smaller groups. We take walks or run errands. When Haylee takes her afternoon nap I like to read, pay bills, talk on the phone or watch baby story, blog. Target is always a fun activity to do in the summer since I can spend hours there. We don't have a pool at our complex so thats a bummer but I'm excited to take Haylee to the community pool. I just haven't yet. Often time the girls and I will eat dinner together or watch movies. I put Haylee down at 8 and then I make a gourmet dinner and wait for Weston to come home. By gourmet dinner I mean anything that I can make for one person that late at night. Sometimes I have to be honest it comes down to peanut butter and jelly. He normally will get home between 10 and 10:30. And then we break out in a mad wii tournament or watch a movie. Then it's off to bed for it all to start over the next day. I have to say I have a pretty great life during the summer and I'm so proud of Weston for all the hard work he does. Saturdays are exactly the same but Weston goes to work at 9 instead of noon. He works 9 to 9. I think that is the hardest part of the summer for Weston. So if this sounds appealing to anyone come out and visit us!!! We would love to have you come!!!

Thanks for sharing, that was interesting. It kind of remeinded me of my life when I just had Spencer back in Virginia. I think I got together with other girls and babies a lot during the afternoons. Enjoy the girl time, somehow it kind of goes away the more kids I have. Miss you!
