If you're looking for an update on dating, you can stop reading now. Nothing new in that department. :) Have you told you lately how much I am having just being single and hanging out? I love it. It suits me right now!
That said, I had a pretty great weekend. Most of it was spent with family. The best part of it was last night...the little monkey and I had a 'girls night'. I was incredibly exhausted as I had spent almost 5 hours mowing both my yard and my parents. My step dad is out of town taking care of Ben in Dallas (he had surgery Thurs morning...long story). My Mom said something on Friday about needing to mow the yard. I told her there was no way in hell I was letting her mow the yard. It's probably been 30 years since she's mowed and their yard isn't exactly small. So, being the wonderful, angelic daughter I am (he he he), I mowed went over the mowed it. So last night I was pretty darn tired...but that didn't keep me from having an amazing night with Layla. That child is hysterical. After we went outside and swung, chased/raced the dog around the yard, went down the slide 42 times, learned how to climb up the slide twice(and fall off the side doing so), we came in for a MUCH needed bath. We made a pit stop on my bed so I could coax her out of her clothes. That turned into a 2 hour playdate. We played 'jumpy jumpy', made a pile of pillows for her to climb on and jump off (it's rather embarrassing the amount of pillows on my bed, suffice to say, it's enough to look like a small mountain to her). She buried me in pillows. I buried her in pil-pohs. We made a fort under the blankets, perfected our somersaults (and somersaulted right off the bed that's approx 3.5 feet in the air..wasn't pretty but luckily she landed on a few stray pil-pohs). She made up a new game. She told me to close my eyes (which she has never done before). Proceeded to climb up the mountain of pillows and jump off landing my stomach. Didn't feel so great but it was funny as hell. Needless to say, I never knew how much fun we could have playing on my bed. It's made me realize...we really need a trampoline. 2 more years and I'm buying one. I've wanted one since I was 8 so really it'll be for me, but I guess I'll let her play on it too! :)
This morning when she woke up she wouldn't let me pick her up until she gave me a hug and kiss. It was best damn hug and kiss EVER. I love that girl!
