I skipped school on Friday!?! :O I knoooow...bad, bad, baaaad E!
I just really needed a break from "it all" and by giving myself a long weekend I hope I've gotten that break. I'm also glad I left my school books etc in my locker on Thursday, might have been tempted to look through the material again and I don't think that would have done me any good.
So yesterday I chilled out, as much as I could, all day and we ended our "tgif" watching "Stuart Little"...skipped through most of it as E&A preferred having a looong bath to watching the movie.
I've started spraying a leave-in conditioner in Erin's very curly hair to make it easier to brush. She (understandably) hates having her hair brushed but it just can't be left without a brush-through! The new conditioner seems to be working well, no more tears or screaming in the mornings and it also makes her hair less frizzy and therefore more curly...supercute! :D

...Today's my birthday...turning 28 feels like no different from 27 (which I thought felt much "older" than 26)...mainly waiting and looking forward to turning 30...and being a "thirty-something" which I think I've been since I was about 14... *lol*
My niece Julia turned 5 yesterday and today we had a small get-together at my sister's for our two birthdays...my sis is having 13 (!?) little kiddies over for the party tomorrow, very VERY brave! Wish you the best of luck! ;) It's good she's got a few grown up helpers at hand... :)
I got lovely earrings and a cute notebook and a beautiful orchid! I'm a bit envious of Julia's Tinkerbell-dress though! ;)

Hoping for some sunshine tomorrow so that we can go visit the pot-bellied pigs again. :)
Time to get kiddies ready for bed!
