Play dough, jumping stairs , dominos (Lazy Day at home)

OK--I have been taking so many photos-I have to delete them off the camera just to be "ready"!! I am addicted to taking pictures and then Gretchie is addicted to elephants--her favorite movie now is Babar (french elephant who lives in Paris with a rich lady) just an explanation for Cherilyn!! (and whoever else needs an update on cartoon characters).
Tuesday mommy was a little on the sore side from falling Saturay and the bruise from landing was HUGE!! I had overdid it shoveling ice/snow and sat on a heating pad off and on----Gretchie thought mommy was her built in playmate!! WOW--shes right here for me to play with!! GREAT!!
We did have loads of fun---nothing but dinner got done though! We played play dough, puzzles, jumping stairs, dominos, coloring book, and watched Babar (elephant video) I think we have seen it at least twice a day! Where is Heffalump??? (just kidding) The cute thing is she sets her two stuffed elephants up to watch tv!!! She asks them if they want to watch her video with her---because mommy does not!! HAHA!! OK-
I did something really bizzare to my right wrist---I thought it was from shoveling or the COLD!! I had hurt my wrist carrying Gretchie when she was nine months old and it hurt off and on for 3 months!! No--I did not go to the dr. it healed itself.(so I thought) This time the right wrist started throbbing Mon. eve when I was cutting G her dinner!! I mean bad hurting I even took IB profin immediately!! I figured I had been shoveling and it got cold! I lifted G into the tub and the left one started throbbing---yeah I know weird!
Lee cleared the table and cleaned the kitchen put G in her pj!! I made her walk upstairs for bed! By morning on Tuesday they were both so sore and hurting w0rse ---I wrapped the right one--could not decide which one to wrap---ouch!



I usually don't complain but this was strange---the left one started feeling better late afternoon by completely doing very little all day---Trying to put a puzzle piece in was torture!! Computer was out!! I did hold the phone (teeehehe) I did go back out and shovel later-- just to scoot the water away from the curb to create water to get to the drain down the street! (dumb in my condition but yes someone had to do it!) My neighbors were no help! Gretchie yelled from the porch I have to go peepee!! We had no accidents again today!! She woke up at 5:45 am and comes into my room and says MOMMY I AM READY TO GO SEE DADDY!! (clear and plain) How can she be wide awake when she was naughty and did not go to sleep until 10:30 pm!! She was AWESOME all morning with 7 hours and 15 min of sleep---not long enough!! She fell asleep in my lap at 11 am and still had training pants on--I put a pull up on over her Dora panties and carried her up to bed--yes with two bad hands---(dumb again I know but someone had to do it) The cat was no help! Gretchie slept from 11 to 1:30 pm!! Every time I fell asleep something would wake me up----ugh! I heard the door slam shut shortly after I put her to bed--I went to the landing and saw her door was still propped shut---little did I know G had gotten out of bed and closed the door and fell asleep in our doorway of our bedroom when she yelled Mommy at 12:20--she was in my doorway sitting! ahhh! We rocked in the recliner and she was asleep within seconds so was I but the wind outside crashed against the house a couple times---woke me up---then G would move--ugh!! I did not sleep for a nap---I had gone to bed at midnight the night before---5:45 am was early! LAZY DAY!!

Hermiston had two snow days for schools and daddy did continue to make the hour commute to Walla Walla Mon and Tuesday Wednesday! He ran errands after work Tuesday so I fed "G" dinner at 6 pm --She says MOMMY GO GET DADDY! I told her he was still working and she says OH IS HE TALKING TO HIS FRIENDS? I said no the roads were just snowy and icy---OH DADDY IS A GOOD GUY!! haha! This child is so concerned about others and if we need more food at dinner or a drink---etc! I am posting a couple pic. of my feet and Gretchie sharing her two favorite blankets with mommy then proceeds to ask me if I need a pillow and her bear!! Oh ya mommy here is puppy!! She then comes over and kisses my toes----ahhh!!!

For a day at home and not much to report this ended up to be very long!
