Work went by so fast since I had a lot of meetings and then the work Thanksgiving potluck. My plate was filled to the brim and I was comfortable enough to get the breast bone to knaw on in front of my coworkers. I also went home at one so that I could take Emmy to play with JJ.

JJ drove Emmy and him in his power wheel to the club house where we got a crap, unsweet tea and strawberry banana smoothie and chips to share for the kids. They wrote letters to Santa and mailed them and played in the park. Emmy slid down the slide all by herself!

Afterwards we went back to the house to play and Beth came over. On the drive home Emmy passed out and you’d think from not taking her afternoon nap she’d be in bed by now. But nope, she’s sitting here hanging out with me. She’s going to sleep so well tonight.

We had dim sum today and it was perfect! Because I got to order some of the foods I liked and was full and happy. We also got some groceries as well. Emmy is doing so well when we go out and eat. No more throwing napkins on the floor or having a fit. She looks around, plays with her food and eats a lot overall.

We all got home and took naps then woke up and played with Emmy a bit before we had hot pot for dinner. We had a lot of stuff we wanted to use up in the fridge and various gas bottles with a little bit of gas left. Fast and simple dinner.

Afterward, I played with Emmy while everyone cleaned. She hid under the covers and said “oh no, it’s raining. I’m scared.” It wasn’t raining but she’s adorable.

I finished a crocheting project I started like two and a half years ago and am currently on my next one. Hoping this one comes out pretty well since it’s been a while since I started a new one. I’m rusty.

Since Emmy is in town, I brought her over to Mallory’s for a playdate with JJ since they’re only a few months apart. She was so shy at first but soon enough was comfortable to play with JJ and Dani. She loved baby Jacob and couldn’t stop giving him some attention.

She rode in JJ’s power wheel while he drove and we stopped by the park for a bit. They went on slides, swings, and used chalk to draw on the pavement. Emmy loves the power wheel which means she’s ready to ride her red car back home soon. She just needs to learn how to.

There was a moment where they’re holding their hands and even got a video of it too. I joked to Brudda and SIL that I took her own her first date. They’re so adorable together. I wish Emmy lived closer so that they could have more playdates.

When Mum and June got home from work, we all went to Costco and came home and made Indian food for dinner. Emmy got some pizza from Costco.

We got Sukhi’s brand and although it was good, not the super best. I’ve heard Deep brand is way better so that’s on my list of things I need to try.

I’m sure Rizzo was happy Emmy wasn’t in the house for over five hours today. He loves that dang purple dog and takes it and sleeps with it.

Not sure what this weekend will bring but I guess we’ll wait and see!

a lot of stuff at work “broke” today but I still got to sneak away for some baby time. Say hi to Mara. Lia was in town visiting and she made a stop at work so everyone can meet the little one. I did have the pleasure of holding her while she got the baby bottle ready. She’s so light! But I didn’t have the pleasure of getting a picture so all I have is when Michael was holding her.

After work was Mallory’s. I haven’t seen her in a while so we planned to order food from UberEats. We’re not too certain what happened but our food got cancelled and we ended up having spaghetti instead which I was okay with since it’s been awhile.

I even got fed a bottle of wine which made for a very tipsy me. That’s what happens when you drink with a mama who’s breastfeeding.

I even got in some Jacob cuddles. He was getting fussy since he was getting hungry but he stayed still enough for this photo to be snapped. He’s still itty bitty but I can tell how much JJ loves him and it melts my heart.

After I got over the alcohol, or most of it, I left and went home in time to play with Emmy. She has a bit of an OCD issue as you can see in the picture. Hopefully some sticks and some doesn’t. I’m fine when it’s a organization type of thing but when it’s the fact she doesn’t get it her way the right way, I’m fine with that going away.

One more work day and a mentor session until the weekend!

Work went by so slowly today. I’m not too certain what was going on other than I just wanted to leave. Luckily I had something to look forward to. Happy hour with Delisha. Saltgrass doesn’t have happy hour though so when we saw the bill we said we can’t come here anymore. We had so much left over as well. We’ve had deep conversations on Friday and Monday and still had so much to talk to today. Thankful for her.

I came home to Emmy wanting some of my left over steak to hanging out with her until I put her to bed. I posted her holding my finger yesterday and David asked if I had a baby. I tend to keep my distance when a guy friend of mine gets a girlfriend because I’ve dealt with jealous girlfriends before so I didn’t realized how long it’s been since I last saw him. It’s crazy how time flies. Sadly he will be in drill the weekend I’ll be in town but hoping he and I get to catch up in person soon.

Two more days until the weekend. I got this!
