busy day

today was an exceptionally busy day. it all started at 7am when maria woke up. i fed her while chris made breakfast for everyone. he made scones, scrambled eggs and i cut up some fruit and we had the rest of the cantaloupe that my mom brought. after breakfast my mom and i went for a walk with maria and daisy. i like walking in the neighborhood with my mom because then i have someone to talk to about other people's yards and we point out things we like and things we don't. my parents had to get ready to leave when we got back from the walk. they were going to a family reunion and had to get on the road. we had time to take some family pictures.

after my parents left, chris and i gathered up some things, made a list and got started on errands. i hate running errands and it takes even longer now because we have to get maria in and out of the car. i wanted to get started pretty early before it got any hotter outside. first we went to target to return the non-functioning mobile we bought thursday night. i picked up a few baby things for a friend that recently had twins and a few things for us. from target we went to the ups store so we could ship out some packages- one to chris's mom, one to my friend amy (twins) and one to chris's brother. i have to say the guy at the ups store was really helpful and nice considering we came in with a crying/ farting baby, chris was on the phone the whole time with his brother and i only had one package boxed and ready to go. i felt like we were 'those' customers. . .. from there we went to lowe's to check out their sliding patio doors. after talking to the door guy there we decided to go with our original door from home depot. sooooo- we went to home depot and finally made the final decision about replacing the sliding patio door in our bedroom. it is ordered- it should take about 2 to 3 weeks to arrive. after that was done we went home. i was super tired and ended up taking nap.

after dinner (texadelphia!) i played tennis with juan for about 2 hours. i wasn't very good to begin with then add an 8 month hiatus because of pregnancy and i'm even worse. i'm getting better though- i had fun playing and i got a few good shots in.
