Today was supposed to be a day of rest, but I didn’t get enough sleep last night to actually enjoy the little rest I got today. Nate accidentally woke Ellie up extra early this morning, so I didn’t get to sleep in as I usually do. I thought all of us would be able to sleep in until about 8AM, but Ellie was wide awake at 6AM. So I took her for a little walk this morning. We walked to visit the sheep, but didn’t stay too long.
I’ve been trying to explain to Eleanor that a new baby is coming, and we’ve been trying to practice with her baby doll. She hasn’t quite got the hang of being gentle yet, but we have a few more months to work on it.
When I first picked out my lip color this morning, I thought there was no way it was going to look nice. But now as I’m seeing it in these photos, I don’t think it’s too bad. I told my mom I just look good in everything! Ha. Challenge accepted. I think orange or light pink will look the worst on me. We’ll see tomorrow.
January 3, 2021 – I am so grateful to live in a place where I can just go outside and walk around. I can’t imagine going through this pandemic living in an apartment, or living in a place with extreme weather. I know I really should take Ellie walking more, but I don’t always feel safe going around to parks by myself with her.
