Mother's Day and a Visit to Ramona

It has been awhile since we posted because things have been hectic. First, I celebrated my first mother's day with my baby. It was a perfect day. We had brunch at Hillstreet Cafe with my wonderful husband, my mother in law, sister in law and Aaron's grandma and of course, my cutie, Tallulah. It was so nice. Aaron surprised me with the coolest picnic table that he refurbished and surprised me with it on the front lawn. Best gift! Thank you for a great day.

Now to last week...Our landlord informed us that our roof was going to be replaced. I asked him for three days notice because the sound of the roofers is super loud so we wanted to plan ahead with Tallulah napping etc. Well, we did not get notice and the roofers showed up. They did not know that we had wood beam ceilings so the moment they started working on the roof, tons and tons of dirt and debris started falling through the cracks. It was everywhere!! Tallulah's room, crib, was covered. Living room, kitchen, carpet, our bedroom, everywhere!! It was a nightmare. Luckily, Aaron was home that day and got Tallulah out of the house. It smelled so dusty and was just a nightmare mess. We called our landlord and he was going to pay for us to go to a hotel but we decided to pack it up and stay with Aaron's mom in Ramona. A one day job, turned into a three night stay in Ramona. It took way longer to finish the roof plus the cleaning person had to come and clean the heck out of our place. We finally got to come home late Saturday. The cleaning person did an amazing job!! Thank goodness.

The great news is that Tallulah had a fun visit to Ramona and she was awesome. She did super in her pack and play and was such a happy baby. The hard wood floors were a challenge for her at first but by the second day, she was moving all over the place. She is such a good baby. However, by Saturday, she was getting fussy and wanted to go home. When we got home on Saturday, she was so happy!! She was laughing and playing. It was good to be home.

A huge thank you to Grandma Julie and Auntie Andrea. We could not have done it without them. Lots of love!
