Uneventful Weekend

The weekend came and went in a blink of an eye. I swear more hours need to be added to the day. We had Angie this weekend and by the time Sunday came around, we are exhausted! Between Juliana and Angie I barely have time to breathe. Those girls keep me busy. On top of running around after those two, with the extra weight I am carrying, I get winded pretty easily. Come Sunday night it all caught up to me.

This weekend was pretty uneventful. Friday, I worked and so did Robert. Angie was dropped of at 6pm. Saturday I worked, Robert stayed home with the girls, and Bobby spent the night at my mom's (Mima's). Titi Vida picked up Bobby Saturday afternoon and took him out for a while with Jesika and all the girls. My son is surrounded by nothing but estrogen! Poor kid. By the time I had made it home from work on Saturday, Robert looked beat and was in dire need of a break. We switched. He took a nap and I chased the girls. My daughter is at the point where she wants to taste everything and will stop at nothing. She is so curious right now that I think she would purposely let herself fall off the couch or bed just to see what it feels like. Luckily, we haven't had her fall off anything in a while. Mama's (Juliana) favorite "game" at the moment is take everything out of the diaper bag or the drawer or the purse and then on to the next. It's funny, but a pain to clean up after. Angie is 3 years old and requires so much attention. She asks a lot of questions and follows me everywhere. If I do my hair, she wants her hair done. If I wash dishes, she wants to help. I try to keep her busy so she doesn't get bored.

Funny story...I had asked Robert to just give me 30 uninterrupted minutes in the shower. I asked him to handle the kids so I can just get lost in my thoughts. He said ok. Not even 10 minutes into my hot, steaming shower, Angie comes knocking. "Christina, I have to go pee." I tell her to come in (we only have one bathroom). I didn't want for an accident to happen. She uses the restroom and I tell her to wait for me outside if she is done. She says, "can I sing the ABC's?" I say, "Sure, as soon as I'm out." She took that as an oppourtunity to belt out her best American Idol ABC's. She kept me company for the rest of my shower and then demanded I sing with her. When Robert came to get her it was too late, we were into our 4th ABC's and we were moving on to the "Itsy Bitsy Spider".

Saturday night was Manny's (my brother in law) birthday celebration. Robert stayed home and gave me a chance to go out and socialize for a while. It came to me that I am no longer that girl I once was. Staying out late and bar hopping takes up too much energy. Especially, after the bar fight that cleared out most of the establishment. By the way, I see Manny and Karina (my sister in law) in a completely different way. I was proud of them. I'll keep it at that. They know what I'm talking about. ;) GO PACQUIAO!

Sunday we invited ourselves over for breakfast at my inlaws. We had eggs, chuletas, tortillas de harina, and salsa. After breakfast, we just stayed. I had been craving brats for a while. Manny's friends came over and we ate them for dinner. They were deeeeelish! We didn't leave the house until about 8pm.

For the weekend being so uneventful, it feels as if we did a lot. Maybe next weekend, Robert and I will have a chance to go on a date...
