After our week of sickness the weekend was welcomed! Piper still didn't feel good after last weekend so my mom watched her on Monday (thank goodness for Grandmas who don't work Monday's!) and took her to the doctor....double ear infection and tonsillitis. My poor baby girl.
Tuesday night Presley said she was tired. This NEVER happens. She didn't eat dinner....this was unusual also. Wednesday morning I knew she didn't feel good and so I just worked from home in the morning and kept her home with me. However, I didn't feel good either! I made her a doc appt for the afternoon and planned on asking the doc to look at my throat too. P had a temp of 102 and swollen glands. She put both of us on antibiotics and we spent the rest of the night just lounging.
Saturday morning was the last soccer game.....she went and wasn't happy about it. She 'practiced' for a bit and then refused to participate for the rest of the game, as she has done all season. However, she did get a trophy that she is very proud of! I might just burn it since she didn't earn it.
Once Steve and Piper got home from her soccer game we headed over to our friend Jared and Lisa's to watch the Iowa game. The kids played, we hung out and talked and watched the 'game', if you want to call it that! UGH! We got home from their house about 3 and chilled, Steve was going to watch the Cubs game with neighbor Jason and the kids and I wanted to do something....so did Sam and Boston! So we made a last minute decision to head out to Center Grove Orchard for a couple hours!
Boston and Presley, LOVE playing with each other!
Piper went down the slide with me....my first time down this slide!
Samantha and Boston did the apple slingshot which was pretty cool!
Presley and Boston were not as willing to pose for pictures as Miss Piper was.
After we left the orchard we were all starving, so we headed to Sportspage in Ankeny....for a sports bar we thought it might be busy with Cubs fans....NOPE! So it was fast and the kids ate and were good! Thanks Samantha and Boston for going with us!
Sunday morning the girls slept in until 8:30 and then we just hung out, picked up, laundry, the usual weekend crap. Steve made a Costco trip and us girls headed to paint pottery with Holly and Mary! The girls were very excited and did pretty good!
We were there for 1.5 hours and it was a success. We will pick up our stuff next Sunday and we will definitely be going back to do it again! After that we headed home, the girls played, I cleaned out the car and did some more cleaning. Steve was helping Jared trim his basement and once he got home I headed on a solo Target trip!!! We decided to do dinner out at Applebees and then got ice scream at Sonic on the way home to complete a good weekend! The laundry isn't done, the house is still a mess, the dishwasher needs to be emptied but oh well, it's nice having free weekends and getting to do unplanned fun stuff with the kids.
