It was one of those weekends...

Friday night we went to a house warming party.  As is with most house warming parties, you don't know where the new house is.  So we opted to caravan with several others.  However our car over heated (again) and we had to hold up the caravan.  Our dear friends Yong Yi and Sharon went back to their house to pick up Sharon's car.  We were over an hour late to the dinner party.  And then Lydia tried a new stinky fruit.  Who knew there were so many repulsive smelling fruits?  She was not a fan.  But she poked herself in the eye and got some juice from the fruit in her eye.  Her eye turned red and she would not open it.  Scary!  She cried so much she made herself sick (several times).  So mommy and Lydia decided it was time to go home and get out of our throw-up saturated clothes.  Lydia didn't sleep much that night.  At 4 a.m. I got her to take a little Benedryl.  That helped and allowed her (and me!) to sleep until morning.  
Saturday we had a busy day at church.  A public forum in the morning and then College ministry stuff in the afternoon.  So much going on!  I got pretty grumpy around 2 p.m. and told Micah Lydia and I had to have a nap!!!  Poor guy.  He toted us home and returned to the church.  Last night Micah brought a college student home with him for dinner.  We hung out for a while and then watched "The Rock" on T.V.  I was much nicer after having a nap.  Micah is like an energizer bunny when he gets excited.  Yesterday was just too exciting.  So many great conversations and meeting new people.  It is great to have his energy and excitement around.  

Now it is Sunday afternoon.  Lydia is finally down for her nap (after some pretty heavy protesting) and Micah is playing futsol.  And I am enjoying some down time.  :)  Reading and facebooking.  Deep breath of relief!
