Tyler and Porter have had a guys fishing weekend in TX planned for quite sometime and it just snuck up on me. They enthusiastically left this morning and had a great road trip from what I hear. Piper and I started the day with story time at Park Place...a cute area near us - outside under a gazeebo with a sweet lady, Ms. Dee Dee, reading about Fancy Nancy. Piper got to go up and sit on Ms. Dee Dee's lap and tell her name, age, brother's name, she's a twin, etc. So cute. Next, we played in Pottery Barn Kids, ate lunch outside, and Piper rode her bike while I attempted to walk Daisy. This afternoon she went to gymnastics without Porter...so weird, but she did great. Tonight, she chose Dean and Deluca for dinner (the girl likes soup and dessert), so we ate outside there with Nana. The sad part of the day just occured after I put Piper to bed. In between all our activities today she's been playing with a new birthday present...a Polly Pocket pool set from Aunt Jerri. Well, Daisy just chewed Polly. Pool set with no Polly is going to make Piper so sad in the morning:( I think we'll be heading to Target bright and early to replace it. Then, we'll be off to the pool ourselves. It's open for the season! It will be freezing since our weather has barely made it to 80 this Spring, but in our pale skin, we are facing the cold waters anyway and hoping to soak up some sun!We miss those boys, but I always treasure special time I can spend alone with just one child...my boy or my girl. Not only is it SO easy (usually), but it's important for them to have one on one time that they otherwise NEVER get. Twins are awesome - God is so creative and I am so thankful...for two miracles, and for the time I'm spending with one this weekend.
