Ben is "on call" this weekend. Every third weekend he is on call. So before our eyes opened this morning his pager went off. So off to work he went and since he was gone I decided to treat today like any other day. After breakfast we headed out for our morning walk, but my stomach detoured us to Jamba Juice. I just love their oatmeal! And it's only $1 when you purchase something. Courtney was really wanting to hit the park so we stopped there for a bit and then headed home to feed Caylee. I can't wait til Caylee is eating every 4 hours. It will make getting stuff done so much easier. We needed to go to Target so I loaded the girls up for a Target run. This trip had a dual purpose. This was Courtney's trip to pick out special snacks, drinks and prizes for "potty training Monday". She seems to be really excited about it.

I spent the afternoon cleaning and doing laundry. Our room smells funky so I'm set to change that and am washing all the blankets and clothes to get rid of the smell. Our poor room gets neglected a bit I always focus on downstairs.

I have been craving Marie Callendars for months. Ben doesn't like that place, so I don't ever bother suggesting it. I had decided this morning If Ben got called in, I'd take the girls there tonight. Then out of the blue Ben sends me a text asking if I wanted to go to dinner at Marie Callendars. I was so excited! So the girls and I met him there. As we were driving into the parking lot, Courtney saw Petco. We have taken her there a few times to see the animals, but it had been months since we had our last fieldtrip there. So I pulled in and Courtney starts shouting "meow! Puppy!". I couldn't believe she remembered.

Courtney was great at dinner. I gave her a bribe of getting a cookie at home if she was good. It worked. Right now she will do almost anything for a cookie.

We ended the night with some family worship before she went to bed.

Ben wanted to go to bed early and I tried putting Caylee to sleep in our room and she kept crying. So I put her in the pack n play downstairs while I worked on chores. She slept for a while. I'm slowly getting her used to sleeping other places. It's hard because I don't want to give up a good nap to try other places. I was so good with Courtney, this time it's a little harder.
