So, our house is officially on the market! We put the sign in the yard last Sunday, one week ago today. We have had a few calls on it and had a showing on Friday! I cleaned our house top to bottom and strategically hid all of Cal's "stuff" to de-clutter things. In other words, I filled up the back end of my Explorer with a TON of Cal's toys! It was really funny- I didn't have the time/energy to unload them all before running an errand so I was driving down the road with about 10 different toys making noise/singing songs/honking- it was typical something I would do!
The showing went well. The girl really liked our house and loved that the master was on the top floor. She had all positives to say about the location and the house. Her house is for sale as well, and she can't do anything until her house sells. So, we will see what happens! I am praying for a repeat visit from her and maybe a few other showings as well. Now that I got the house "show ready," I want some people to get in here!
Cal caught a little bit of a cold last week, and I showed the picture/video from him napping earlier in the week. Here is a picture from the next day's nap:
He was sitting up and crying, not wanting to give in, and then finally fell asleep, and just kind of toppled over- still in the sitting position! HA!Saturday was the MOST perfect day. Cal woke up pretty early, but he took an excellent morning nap. While he slept, Eddie went to the golf course, and I sat out on the back deck with Hank listening to my book on tape-- it was PERFECT out! Once Cal woke up, I got him dressed in his swimsuit, sun shirt and loads of sunscreen and we headed to the pool!
Sunscreen in the hair: check! Quicksilver bathingsuit: check! Big smile: check!
We had a great time there. He played so hard in the water. Our pool has a "beach entry" in the shallow end, which means it gradually gets deeper as you go in. We just sat in the water and Cal splashed and played so hard. He was practically begging for a nap after all of that! I changed him out of his wet clothes and into something dry and quickly nursed him. I loaded him up in the jogging stroller and pushed him around the pool deck until he fell asleep (I was getting great sun while strolling the deck too! ha!). I parked him in the shade within my eyeshot and sat back in the water and relaxed-- it was heavenly! After Cal woke up, he got back into his bathingsuit and played some more. A few of my girlfriends showed up with their babies so we all sat in the water playing away. To end the perfect day, we all had a margarita while playing-- again, it really was perfect!
(until Saturday night....)
(until Saturday night....)
I was pretty exhausted on Sunday and feeling pretty under the weather. Thank goodness Cal took a great nap so I could rest a bit. I am super excited for his check- up tomorrow morning. I love love love our doctor and always look forward to seeing her. Not sure if Cal is getting shots or not, but he hasn't had any issues with them in the past, so I am sure he will be fine tomorrow too. I am interested to see how much my little chunker weighs. I am betting around 20 lbs. I am also curious about what the doctor says for food for Cal. It's hard to know what to feed him and when.
Hope y'all had a great weekend too!!!
