Hooray for Daddy!

Well we were all blessed with Olivia sleeping in...we never set the alarm anymore on the weekends because Olivia wakes up at 6:30 a.m. on the dot.  Well today I woke up at 7:22 and she was still sleeping.  So I went and woke her up because we were going to church this morning.  She was a bit cranky getting ready for church but was fine once we got in the car and got to church. 

After church we played and ate.  We put on our rain boots again and put some food out for the birds.  Then it was nap time.  Jake did a stellar job of waking up Olivia by busting in her room after about 30 minutes and then she was up.  Lovely...thanks Jake!

Since it was still yucky today Brendon decided to try to get the ball out of the sub-woofer that Olivia put in there.  Well neither of us could reach our arm all the way in to get it.  So Brendon got the vacuum out and sucked the ball out.  But then as he upright the speaker he heard another sound...there was another ball in there.  This time it was a ball from this gumball machine toy Olivia had as a baby.  So he tried with the vacuum but couldn't get it.  Finally I suggested taking off the vacuum attachment and that had enough suction to get it.  Olivia was so happy.  She was saying hooray for daddy, you did it!! She was very excited.

Before dinner Olivia and Brendon played outside and even played some baseball.  The bugs were so bad though!! Olivia was not happy at first about dinner but then ate almost all of it and then had ice cream. 

The biggest hooray for daddy was that Olivia didn't cry tonight when he gave her a bath.  She cries all the time when he gives her a bath.  So we said if she didn't cry tonight we would give her something for her piggy bank....well it worked...she didn't cry and was laughing and having a good time.  but it made me feel better that she didn't cry.  I know it is a change from her routine that she has the other 5 nights but we feel it is important for her to have both of us give her a bath.  But hip, hip, hooray for daddy tonight!!
