08/02/2005 Archived Entry: "bowl me over"

After Daisy's morning nap I took the girls to the mall for awhile. But on our way there, Chris called to say he was on his way home so we asked him to meet us there. We all had a quick lunch of veggie dogs on a stick plus flavored lemonade. I won't drink regular lemonade at all, but put some cherry or lime flavoring into it and hm-mm. Tabitha mainly wanted to go to the mall to check for dolls at Children's Place. We've been avoiding that store because we happen to know there are new dolls and we were planning on getting them and putting them away for Christmas. But alas, our plan has failed. They only had one though so perhaps we'll still be able to get the other two and keep her from checking the store. We also went to the land of expensive headbands known as Nordstrom's so I could get Daisy a red headband. I've searched everywhere else and this is the only store that seems to deviate from pink. I have four pink headbands already, I'm good.

Chris cut our grass nice and short once we were home and then it was time to take Tabitha to bowling. She did really well this week, between practice and the game she picked up three or four spares. She also bowled 9 points higher than her average which is great! We decided Chinese leftovers were just the thing for dinner. I told you I wasn't into cooking that much right now.

Chris left for rehearsal soon after dinner and I went into the backyard with the girls to blow bubbles. I set Daisy down on a blanket and she had a ball watching Tabitha chase the bubbles from the bubble wand. We had some wind so there was quite a few bubbles but many of them kept reversing on me and popping in my face. It didn't matter where I stood in the yard or which way I faced. They had their eye on me and I ended up with a sticky face, lol.

After bubble time was over we camped out in the living room on a huge quilt again. Daisy played with her toys on my right and Tabitha and I played with her Instant Blocks for awhile. I think we'll be getting Tabitha another set for Christmas and Daisy will most likely get the baby set. I need to make a list of exactly what I'd like to get Tabitha because I have all these ideas floating in my head and then I forget. It's already August, I need to get on the ball! LOL
