Monday marked day one of construction. My parents are closing off our vaulted ceiling and putting in a loft space as well as an upstairs laundry room. I’m super excited about the laundry room!! Monday was demolition day and building of the support beams. It was really scary walking out there not having a banister. The first day was so noisy! My mom, the girls and I fled to Huntington Beach. We played at the park and then had lunch with Adrian, my dad, and Jason.
The house was so dusty that we decided it was not a good environment for the girls. We stayed over at my aunt’s house. It’s so great having a wonderful family! It was a rough night however since their guest bed is only a double. We had the bassinet for Olivia and a sleeping bag for Jillian, but we ended up having all 4 of us in the bed. Adrian and I both woke up with soar necks!
On Tuesday they completed the floor. It looks so different! It is really neat having so much room upstairs. The dust wasn’t as bad on Tuesday so we decided just to stay in our own bed. We also had a good night putting Jillian to bed! We’ve been sleep training and last night was very mellow. She was quiet in her room playing, this is much better than screaming! It only took her about 30 minutes to fall asleep. YAY!
Today I took both girls to music class. Jillian is the wild child there haha! She is so comfortable there! I’m going to sign her up for a mommy and me princess ballet class through the city. I think she’ll have fun since she likes to dance. But it will be new so she may not be as outgoing as she is in music.
We had our one month check up today for Olivia. I can’t believe it’s already been a month!!! Time just flies! I’m glad I don’t have to go back to work in 2 weeks that would just be awful to have to leave my babies!! Any whoo… I’ve come to find that the insurance department at the district is totally LAME! They didn’t turn in my paperwork to Blue Cross! We had to reschedule our doctor’s appointment, it would have cost us $145 just to see the doctor!!! I’m so frustrated! I have to talk to the insurance department tomorrow and figure out what to do! UGH!
Tomorrow is the March for California’s Education. The march begins in LA and ends in Sacramento. I’m doing my part in LA 🙂 http://www.fight4cafuture.com
