September 20, 2010 - dAy fouRTy-nInE

monday....ugh...work schmirk. came home after work and Bird and i decided to spend the week with Kim. Mom and Dad are in the Outer Banks for the week. i packed a bag and we took the dogs with us. had leftover Pulled Pork and Mac 'n' Cheese. this never gets old for me. love that stuff.


turns out 3 dogs in the kitchen is a lot of dog. they got along alright though considering. 



vodka.period.

after dinner watched the Phils!! what a great game! went to bed early. slept awesome in the king size bed! didn't even feel the dogs on the bed with us. great day.

sunday funday. woke up early to Ally wanting to watch tv. i was more then willing to oblige her. Heather and Russ had a long night with Jonathan. apparently coming home can be very traumatic for a baby. got up and followed our routine from the morning before. Ally watched me do my hair and makeup, while pretending to be at the beach, and then i curled her hair and we went downstairs for breakfast, puzzle playing, and coloring. Johanna made banana bread...yum, and then we went to the park. this little girl has more energy then i could ever dream of having...


she loves to swing. i remember loving the swings too...not so much now...kinda makes me woozie...ugh...



if this isn't a Heather face i don't know what is. LOVE.







whenever you bring the camera out...Ally needs to take one. we'll call this photography by Ally Rose. not too shabby actually.



loves sunglasses. all kids do really. 

i had such a good time. i miss them already and wish that they lived closer! can't wait to go see them again!

got home around 7, and ate dinner with Kim and Bird. Pulled Pork and baked mac 'n' cheese...yum!!! went home unpacked and went to bed early. perfect end to a perfect weekend!

woke up early. got Ally dressed and Russ left for the hospital to pick up Heather and Jonathan. took a shower and did my hair and makeup while Ally watched. curled her hair too and pretended to be at the beach in the bathroom. (the bathroom mat is the water and it's always too cold for CC! LOL. She has the best imagination!) ate breakfast and did puzzles and colored for what seemed like hours waiting for them to come home. decided to go to the grocery store to get food for dinner and breakfast and lunch. took Ally with us...car seats btw...are not my friend. i feel as though these things should be self explanatory, but apparently you have to be either a rocket scientist, or Johanna in order to figure them out...ugh...






sticker fun. and finally...



Jonathan and Heather come home! Ally Rose was so excited!!!



little angel...



Jonathan and Auntie Joh



Ally Rose didn't know what to do with herself at first. She was excited and green with envy all at the same time.



until she got to hold him...too cute.



took a nap with Daddy, and Auntie Joh and Ally and i baked cookies.



yeah...these didn't last very long between me and Ally Rose and Russ...LOL



played the day away and loved on Jonathan and then gave Ally a bath. i LOVE shampoo!! best hair gel in the world! LOL. what a great day!

friday...thank god! Took long enough. work schmirk and then climbed in the car with Johanna for the 2 hour drive to Scranton to meet Jonathan Ryan!!! the car ride seemed to take forever! pulled up to the house to find Russ and Ally Rose waiting for us on the porch. Ally ran for hugs and we climbed back in to the car to follow Russ to the hospital. got there just in time to see Heather and Jonathan. visiting hours were over at 9, but they let us stay late since we drove all that way!
