Shopping, stars, sheets

Sunday afternoon E and I went shopping for a mother-of-the-bride dress.  I tried on quite a few lovely dresses at Macy's and Nordstrom.  The only one that fit OK and looked passable was a lovely teal, lacy sheath, so I bought it.  But I will continue to look for something else.  I might decide to wear the gray lacy set I wore for E's wedding.

Monday es began "school," as she calls it, and apparently did just fine.  I found that watching only ec did not automatically give me hours of free time; he took very short naps and wanted to be held a lot. But I did take him for a thirty-minute walk through the neighborhood.  Pushing him in the small stroller is much easier than both children in the huge double stroller.

Tuesday E and family watched the Fourth of July parade with some friends.  Marching bands and groups of horses kept es entertained for two hours.  She enjoyed the candy and other things thrown out by parade participants.  Last night she began sleeping in her new bed, a twin mattress on the floor.    The Winnie the Pooh sheets made the change attractive.  Her old crib is now in EK's room for ec, and the pack'n'play is downstairs for his naps and a safe place in the kitchen.

Today ec was in his third set of clothes by noon.  Honest, I do try to fit his diapers as tightly as possible!  While I always place him on his back on the floor, before long he rolls over to his tummy.  Then he pushes with his toes and scoots forward.
