Mommy/Daughter Day

D4 and I spent the afternoon together while Daddy and D5 did some bonding. D4 had been feeling a bit neglected during the preparations for D2's wedding. It really is one of those things that everyone just has to pitch in and give their all to--and all of the attention is on the bride. So if you are anyone else in the family -- forget about it. It's not your turn.

So, today was D4's turn. We had a Mommy-Daughter day. She has been so helpful during all of this--and especially with her new little sister. She is so good with her and loves her so much. Anyway, she and I went and had a pedicure (her first ever) and had French style nails done on our toes so our feet would look great in sandals. Then we went to one of her favorite "trendy" stores and she picked out a new Easter dress. Then we came home and got Daddy and D5 and went out for ice cream.

It's just the four of us now at the house--six if you count the girls (that's what we call the dogs.) Anyway, that's a nice number. It's a little quiet at times--but if it gets a little slow we just invite people over to play.

Hubby is trying to put D5 to sleep and she is just staring at him --eyes wide awake. I think she knows what he wants and is just staying awake to torture him. She's so darn cute. But then, so is hubby.
