Today I stayed home all day. I didn't go anywhere nor do I have intentions of leaving the house. (I had a friend who picked up Ali and brought her home because I was tending her two year old.) I stayed in my pj's and didn't get Ashling dressed or do her hair. Instead I worked on cleaning. I vacuumed the floors and cleaned all the dishes that were left over from yesterday. Then I mopped the kitchen floor by hand and cleaned the faces of all the lower cupboards in my kitchen. I believe strongly in mopping the floor by hand because you can get it much cleaner that way as opposed to mopping with a mop. After all the hard work I ate lunch and took a nap/read while the girls took their nap. Later I fixed Ashling's Ariel costume that was too long. I loved staying home today and will try to plan more days where we do nothing. Now I am going to make meatloaf with oatmeal in it. It is supposed to make it much healthier with all the added fiber. We'll see how it goes.

In other news: my baby is fine. I went to the doctor yesterday and it seems like everything is going well. She is not nearly as big as Ashling which I am very grateful for. We are pretty sure we are going to name her Annika and give her a nickname of Anni. I am grateful this pregnancy seems to be going as well as the other pregnancies. Maybe someday I will post a pregnancy picture but first I have to look good and have Cameron home to take a picture so we will see if that ever happens.
