Day in the Life: Lazy Sunday

I thought it would be time again to do another “Day in the Life” series for you all on the blog. This time around it’s a Sunday, a lazy Sunday. In the Wells’ household, we really don’t like to do much on Sunday’s other than spend our time at home. It’s our day to actually relax and wind down from our entire week. Haidyn even knows that it’s Sunday because she can sleep in as late as she wants to and take as many naps as she’d like too.  The Sunday I documented was a couple Sunday’s ago when we had after a hectic week of graduations and celebrations. 

Like any other weekend morning, I am the first one up usually always around 6:30 am. This morning in particular I decided to wake up at 6:30 am and lay in bed until 7:00 am to catch up on my social media , games I’m currently addicted to ( Cooking Fever and Cinderella Free Fall ) and just be lazy before greeting the day.

 Since we had a whirlwind of a Saturday, the kitchen was a mess along with the living room and Haidyn’s playroom, therefore coffee was a must before tackling everything. The day before, we had gone to a craft fair to support the local vendors of Reno and bought our favorite coffee from our favorite tea and coffee shop: Too Soul Tea Co. If you haven’t been, you have to go! Their coffee is seriously the best coffee ever.   I made a huge batch of coffee and began to clean the house and slowly start my day. 

Before I knew it, a couple hours had passed and Waymon started to wake up and shortly after Haidyn woke up too. She was so excited to be up, probably because we told her that she was going to test out the pool this morning. We put her in a bathing suit for the first time this summer season and let her wander the house, as usual.  You would be amazed how fast she can get around the house. We ate a little breakfast, read books, made playdough, played with playdough, did some laundry, sang our ABC’s and blew up her princess floater boat before heading to the pool.

I wanted to test the waters with Haidyn, since we wanted to enroll her in swimming lessons this summer. I didn’t want to pay money for swim lessons for her to not have any fun. But overall I’m glad we tested the waters with her because she loved it. She was a little scared at first, but she couldn’t help but have fun! Who can resist having fun in the sun and pool with Daddy? We ended up leaving the pool to hang out at the park before heading home, just so that we weren’t soaking wet when we got home.

that pony tail though!

We dried off fairly quickly and headed home to shower and put Haidyn down for a nap. She was out like a light before we knew it- she must be growing. The girl can sleep like there’s no tomorrow. As she napped, I finished up the cleaning and the laundry before relaxing and watching some GG’s since we didn’t have to be anywhere until 1:45 pm.

We had to wake Haidyn up to get ready for a sushi lunch at Ijji 2 with our favorite graduate. We made it just in time to eat since Waymon and I were starving! Haidyn ate everything on her plate and tried to say “Hi” to just about everyone at the sushi joint.

We left the sushi place for Sam’s Club to stock up on our fruits for the week and little miss independent had to push the cart once again because that’s just what big girls do! After our shopping trip we headed home to relax and put Haidyn down for her 2^nd nap before heading out to Winco to get the stuff we couldn’t buy at Sam’s . We didn’t want to go back to back since we knew that Haidyn was exhausted.

She woke up and we headed to the store quickly before settling in for the night for dinner. We had empanadas , so delicious that they were not pictured. After dinner we decided to retire to the living room to read some books before bed. She cuddled between us and listened as I read to her. It took us 3 times to get her to lay down that night since I decided to give her gummy bears for the first time. So her usual bed time was pushed from 7:45pm ish to 10:00 pm. Never again! But when she fell asleep, so did I.  

 Lesson learned; no gummy bears hours before bedtime. Silly me, what in the world was I thinking?
