I was a very bad mother this Fourth and didn't take ANY pictures of our family! I must admit that I was under the weather though, with a terrible head/chest cold thanks to my lovely husband. It was a pretty low-key holiday weekend for The Littles. Emaline and I were supposed to go to a party at our friends Conor and Tricia's place, but I just couldn't muster up the energy. Josh had to work anyways, so we ended up going over to my parents' house (really so they could play with Emaline while I slept or vegged on the couch ;-) and BBQ'd. Then, luckily for my little lady we all got into the car and drove over to Chesterfield Mall to watch some fireworks. I wasn't exactly sure how Emaline was going to react, but I figured, she might as well get used to them, right? I even bought her her own little red folding chair to sit and eat her snacks while watching the light show. She did really well and danced in the parking lot in front of our chairs and loved every minute of other people paying attention to her. When the first fireworks went off, she was a little leery and came to sit on Mama's lap, but she quickly turned around and reveled in this essential part of our country's Independence Day.
Then, the rest of the weekend was spent at home, not doing ANYTHING. I even called in sick to work on Sunday. Thankfully, I'm getting back to normal and ready for this confounded pool to be completely finished so I can start on my laps...
