5 on Friday

1. We continue to get the house ready to put on the market. This includes painting the deck until 9PM on a very hot Monday evening. On a positive note: the deck and done and we don't have to do that this weekend.

2. Last night Ellie was lucky enough to go play at her friend Henry's house while Mom and Dad went to a United Way event. Very nice to have such great friends that will watch her so we don't have to pay a babysitter.

3. Last Saturday we had a last minute get together with our friends from Boone. RJ and Nick went to the last Barnstormers game, while Sarah and I played with the girls all evening. We usually have to plan times to hang out months in advance... it is very rare we can do it on a days notice.

4. For about a month Ellie was crying whenever we dropped her off at day-care. Something much have changed because we have gone a whole 5 days this week with no tears! It is so much easier when she says "Bye-bye" instead of crying and reaching for you.

5. On Tuesday I took the afternoon off to go help out my sister with new baby Liam. Of course her house was still clean and the laundry was done, so all I could help out with was emptying the dishwasher and making dinner. While Megan slept, Liam and I hung out and watch soap operas. It was AWESOME!
