Date with the hubby

This morning Ashley and I were supposed to have a play date at Rec Outlet with our friends Heather, Will and Caroline.  Unfortunately Heather and Will were under the weather and we had to cancel :(  I wonder why anyone with small children attempts to make plans during this time of year.  It seems like everyone's family is on a rotating schedule of sickness!  I just pray that this winter is not as bad as last since Ashley got her tubes in this summer.

Ashley and I decided to be lazy and stay in bed most of the morning then and watch Mickey House (Mickey Mouse Clubhouse) and Cake-Cake (Strawberry Shortcake).  We didn't have to be anywhere for a couple hours and it was absolutely pouring today!!!  I was afraid our house was going to float away with the Platt River flowing through our back yard.

Luckily the rain stopped by the time we got to therapy so I didn't have to lug the umbrella out.  Ashley got to play with Becky for an hour and eat some candy - which is a win - win for both of us.  I learned my lesson after last weeks fiasco and I sat in my car until the last minute before heading in so I didn't have to deal with the hyper family.  I also made sure my drink had a tight lid on it :)

After nap time we headed over to Nana and Papaw's house so Nana could watch Ashley for us for a few hours.  We had our semi-annual meeting with our financial guy - always fun!  I'm convinced millionaires come out of those meetings feeling bad about themselves!  After our meeting Justin and I went out for dinner, just the two of us, which has been awhile!  Ashley and Nana went over to Aunt Kelly, Uncle Brian, Nathan and Kyle's house for dinner and to play. 

Ashley got a new nightlight yesterday which is a princess castle.  She is absolutely obsessed with it and wants to carry it around the house with her.  I woke up this morning to "Daddy, look at Ashy's castle".  She gets used to daddy going in on the weekends to get her up out of bed.  It takes her a few days after the weekend to start yelling for mommy again.
