Pedicures, Cinderella and Swimming

Our weekend got off to a great start - Friday I sent both girls to daycare and had a day to myself. I should have laid on the couch all day but I would have felt really guilty the whole time, so first I went to the Toyota dealership inquiring about a new minivan. Then I stayed in Gloucester and went to a few shops where a found a very cute outfit for Libby to wear next summer. Next I stopped at the vegetable stand, then on to wal-mart for a pedicure and grocery shopping. Yes, that's a pedicure at wal-mart! Well I did stop at a local beauty salon first but they were all booked up and I deserved it and it was great, so there!

Saturday I took the girls to the Urbanna farmer's market where we bought nothing, left the pacifier in the street, and had too much sun on Libby. When we got home Emma played in the pool then we dressed her up to go see a production of Cinderella at the middle school. Nannie took Maggie and Emma and when they returned home, Chucky, Libby and I were out on the back deck. The evenings have been so nice the past few days we have been eating outside every night. Libby is such a good girl, we just put her in her papasan seat and put her up on the table with the food or on the deck by our feet. We ordered a pizza and Maggie stayed for dinner and more pool time. We weren't expecting more pool time, so I suggested she get in anyway because the water wasn't high enough to reach her shorts. And you can guess that by the time Nannie came to pick her up, the only dry thing on her was her hair!

Sunday Chucky played golf (a given on every Sunday afternoon during spring and summer) and I left Libby home with Martha while Emma and I went to Sue-Sue's neighborhood pool all the way in Northumberland county. Chas can doggie paddle around the shallow end and also swim underwater a little ways. Emma can swim around the shallow end in her water wings. I was really surprised she could do that since she hadn't been in a pool since last summer. I was even more surprised she was willing to even put on the water wings. I was so proud of my little fish (and a little worried that the water is the one thing in this world she is not afraid of)!
