This past week has been really busy. On the 13th I had knee surgery from an old injury from
8 yrs ago. Since I needed help with the girls, and Kylie was off school this week, we packed up and headed to Napa where Jean (my best friend) took care of me and both girls. We have all been really spoiled this past week, it will be hard to go back to normal starting Monday. My knee is still pretty sore and stiff, but I know that when it heals, it will be well worth the surgery!
Alexis has been loving being here and playing with her "Uncle" Dan (Jean's husband), she calls him "DanDan". She follows him every where and gets super excited when he gets home from work. I know she's missing her daddy a lot, and it's nice to know that she "borrow" a daddy for a few days. She also enjoys playing with Todd, Jean's son, and calls him "TaTa" She is a big time flirt. Besides learning to say "Dan & Todd" this week, Alexis also learned to say, "McDonalds". We were on our way back from getting my stitches out Thursday, when Kylie decided to start chanting, "Mc-Don-alds, Mc-Don-alds" then next thing we knew, Lexi was chanting it with her.
I love how she is mimicking everything we do and say. It's so much fun to watch her learn new things every day!!
Today, "Uncle" Dan took both Kylie and Erin to horseback riding lessons. The girls got 30 mins each on the horse and had a fantastic time. Kylie is really starting to grow and not be so afraid of all the fun things she can do. After horseback lessons, he took the girls fishing down at the river, then on a bike ride to lunch, then back to fishing. They love doing things with Dan and I know he enjoys taking them as much as they enjoy going. Tomorrow is Erin's b-day party so it will be another day full of fun!!
I am so lucky and blessed to have such an awesome Best Friend who does so much for my family and myself. She goes out of her way to help us and I appreciate every single moment of it!
Sorry I don't have any new picture updates, when I get home and I can get to my adapter, I will add the cutest picture of the girls, in the car on the day they were chanting together.
