Yesterday, the girls and I were able to have lunch with Mate at the hospital. Some of his co-workers still hadn't met Mia and Ava, so we were invited to their potluck. It was nice to have somewhere to go during the day. We had a great time seeing Mate's office and the pharmacy. I immediately went into interior decorator mode and suggested he spruce up his space a bit, but he seemed happy having just a few family pictures. They also had a bulletin board that could really use the elementary teacher touch, but I just kept my opinion about that to myself. The girls were perfectly content as they got passed around and I enjoyed chatting with other adults. We would have loved to stay longer, but Mate had to head to a meeting at the college and we had a birthday party to get to.
My sister and grandpa have birthdays within a few days of each other, so we all met up to celebrate. Mia and Ava got lots of attention and showed off their newly acquired skills: sitting up and eating solids. I have noticed that as the girls get older, the amount of stuff I drag along increases. I felt like a bag lady, but at least we had everything we needed. It was an eventful, enjoyable Thursday. Now it's back to our regular daily routine.
