Ellie has learned to roll over!  I went to get her up Monday morning and she was on her tummy. She was a little frustrated because she wanted to go back to sleep and she couldn't manage to get her thumb in the proper position to suck. Hehe. I can't believe it's already that time! From now on I'm sure she'll start doing new stuff each week.

Emme has been...well...a little testy to say the least. Wow. I feel like we've spent the last week in major correction mode. I guess it's better to do it now than later. 

I enjoyed a fun girls night last night. We (Me, Meg, Missy, Mel and Angela) went to Teocali by Children's Mercy. Now, I'm not one to be easily impressed with Mexican food but W-O-W. This place was outstanding. By far the best fajitas around. Mmmmm...And for the price you get sooooo much food. It was nice to catch up with the girls (Meg was my old co-worker and roommate, along with Mel). I won't mention how many chips we ate. It's way too embarassing. All that to say, you need to go and check it out. Yum!

Of course I went and voted today. I got up and was ready to go by 7:10. It was semi crowded but not too bad. The whole process took me about 45 minutes and Josh 15 or so. Since Josh is a total politics junkie, I'm trying to get all I can done around the house while Emme is at school so we can just relax and watch MSNBC tonight. Hopefully Ellie will cooperate and take good naps so I can get the touch up painting done that I've been needing to do. 

I'm so proud of myself. Although the house was still kinda cluttered yesterday when Josh got home, I felt like I got so much done! I took our couch slip cover and our down comforter to the laundry mat yesterday to wash them in the gigantic washers. I patched all the little nail holes that were left on the trim all around the house. I washed our shower curtain and painted the spots where the curtain rod rubbed off. It was just a bunch of little stuff like that. I hope I can get a lot of it done before this weekend so we can work outside. We need to touch up the paint on the house and boring stuff like that. We're also getting family pictures taken...finally.

I should run. Ellie is getting fussy and is ready for a nap. Hope everyone has a great week!
