A busy weekend and a new discovery!

This weekend was the definition of BUSY. Saturday, Sissy had a swim meet so we were up at 530 - packing up, getting dressed, and out the door. We had swim bags, diaper bags, and snack bags, ready to go the night before so we just had to load up in the morning. Little Lady stayed in her pj's till we arrived at the swim meet. So, it was a very smooth departure from the house. I really think I'm starting to get this mom thing down. Sissy did very well at her meet on Saturday and placed top 10 in all of her swims. We were home by 930 in the morning even. This new swim team really knows how to get things done. With the old swim team, we were at meets till well after noon. We got home, we took naps and then it was time for me to go to work.
Silly me, I thought work would be relaxing considering how busy my morning had been. Boy was I wrong. It was crazy busy. I guess the rain makes people want to shop.
Then, Sunday, Big A and Sissy were up and out the door for the swim meet again bright and early and Little Lady and I were out the door at the same time to my hometown to visit some relatives that came down for the weekend. We made our way home, we got ready for the day at my parents house, visited with relatives, then it was back down to our part of town and I was off to work again. Big A and I switched cars in my work parking lot and he was off for an afternoon with his girls and I was in for a long, yet another, busy day at work. Like I said, the rain brings everyone out! Sissy did excellent at her meet on Sunday - placing in the top 10 in all her swims again. Big A got more of the hardwoods laid in the upstairs hallway and the girls had fun playing in Little Lady's bedroom. Big A took Sissy to gymnastics where her mom picked her up. I got home from work in time for Little Lady's bath and bed time. Big A and I watched River Monsters, our Sunday alone time:) and the weekend was over!
So, like I said it was a crazy busy weekend. Most aren't like this. Usually I just work, or we just have a swim meet, etc. We rarely have all in one weekend, but it's good to know we can pull it together and still pull off a good productive weekend with everyone going in a different direction!
And for the big discovery - Little Lady loves yogurt but she HATES baby yogurt. I'm not sure if it's the consistency or what but she will make herself gag till she is on the verge of throwing up. I have tried the Gerber yogurts, the Danonino yogurts, and still she won't eat them. But, whenever I am eating my yogurt she loves it! So, Big A was running to the store to pick up a few groceries and I told him to pick up some vanilla yogurts for Little Lady and myself. He comes home with vanilla yogurt but he also came home with (drum roll please) GO-GURT! She LOVES it, and when I say LOVES it, I mean it. She downed a whole one in record time. So Big A gets the discovery of the week award because this girl has been eating a whole yogurt for breakfast every day!
