Today was an exciting day! Hubby and I woke up at the hotel that Sarah and Bar had gotten for us last night instead of us sleeping on twin mattresses on the floor of the playroom. They said old people need to sleep in real beds and have a room all to their own, so they got us a hotel room for the week, on them. I was both happy and sad. Happy because we would be comfortable and have a place to ourselves in the evening to decompress and sad because I was looking forward to being waken up by Lili, my 15 month old granddaughter. But we told Sarah and Bar thank you very much and went to it. We are only about 15 minutes away from them.
So today after we got up and got some breakfast from Denny's, we got ready and left for Sarah's. Today we were delivering the double stroller I had bartered for and we brought it out from Colorado Springs. Unfortunately, I didn't open or clean it before we brought it out and not only was it dirty but had some mouse poop in it so we have mice in our garage. Time to clean out the garage!
So when hubby and I got to Sarah's, we called to let her know we were there and that we were coming in so she met us at the door and let us in. Knocking or ringing the bell gets the dogs all riled up and barking and we were avoiding that. Now Lili was hiding behind the door looking out the window. When we shut the door, she screamed bloody murder and ran to her mom, then ran away some more. She eventually came back to her mom and made Sarah hold her and was crying, louder when we tried to come up to her. So we moved into the living room and hubby took to the offensive, playing peek a boo and talking to her. Eventually he did make some headway and she let him feed her some pepsi in the bottle cap. But then it was time for a nap.
While hubby was making headway with Lili, I concentrated on getting to know Sahy Li, who was two weeks old, better. They call her Shy. I got to hold her for a long time, change her diaper and rock her. Since Sarah is breast feeding I couldn't help with that but I did give her some time to just sit and talk. And when both the babies were asleep, we got to have an adult conversation and catch up on us, her sisters and friends. Talked about child stuff.
When Lili woke up from her nap, she was crying so Sarah spent some time with her and then Lili spent time with her daddy. Since her daddy works an awful lot, Sarah was enjoying the break.
Hubby went to the grocery store to buy the makings for goulash and homemade chicken soup, a special request by Bar. While hubby was at the store, Sarah talked to Bar and they decided to take us out to dinner tonight to the Olive Garden since Bar was home and had the time today. Hubby can cook tomorrow. Sarah has been craving goulash so is excited. Bar, not so much.
After dinner was over, hubby and I went to Walmart and bought some bathing suits so we could swimming in the hotel pool but when we got back to the hotel and got dressed in the suits, we went downstairs and the pool is closed for cleaning. The front desk guy didn't know anything about it and said that we should try back tomorrow. So we got dressed in our jammies, hubby went to have a smoke and I am watching Lockout on cable.
