Current mood: exhausted
I really wasn't planning on going out to much today, especially since it was supposed to hit the 100s (which did did.. yuk) but this morning I discovered Mia was almost out of wipees and her coupon for Babies R Us was about to expire so off on a new adventure to the store we went.
We left early in the morning before the heat really had a chance to set in.. it helped alittle but it still reached low 90s. Armed with coupons Mia and I raided Babies R Us. I bought a box of diapers, wipees, baby shampoo, a new sippe cup and a new book for Mia. All in all I ended up saving $14! not bad.. I just won't tell you how much the total came out to.. it was alittle more than planned haha. After that we went home and I was hoping to get some much needed rest... WRONG!
When we got home I remebered today was the day Adrian and I planned on going to the grocery store. We needed milk and eggs and a few other neccessities.. NOOOOOO! So after a quick lunch we loaded up the car with Mia and ourselves and off to Cardenas we went. Mia surprisenly did very well considering she skipped her nap in the morning. I am glad we went because we stocked up big time and even had a treat afterwards. I got a mango orange juice from the fruit stand there and it was SO GOOD!!! Mia liked it too, and it was refreshing since it was 105 in Perris at the time.
After we went home, we all rested a bit. Mia took a long nap and Adrian and I just vegged out on the couch. Then 5pm rolled around and Mia was up from her nap. Adrian had to mow the lawn since its getting out of control and the association is getting mad at us, so I thought it would be a good idea to have Mia get some fresh air outside while Daddy mowed.
At first it didn't seem so bad... as long as you stayed in the shade but of course Mia didn't want any part of the shade and kept running out into the sun and kept running down our driveway. I was afraid she would run into the street so I kept picking her up and putting her on the porch. Of course she took it as a game, since she would just run back down the drive way again. The only way I could get her to stay put was when Adrian started the mower. She froze and wouldn't move until he was done. I don't know if she was scared or what, she kept chattering and playing with nearby leaves but just wouldn't walk around. Once he was done she was out and about again. I drug out her little princess car and she played with that alittle. She was having a good time and I was enjoying myself watching her until she started doing bad things. She started putting everything in her mouth again. Grass, leaves, plants, the wood chips in the flower bed! I finally had enough and we both went back inside haha So much for that haha. We later relaxed on the couch for a bit then I fed her dinner and off to bed she went.
Phew what a tiring day! I am defaintely staying indoors for sure tomorrow!!! haha
