After practically spending the whole day at mom's house
Getting things in order about mines and Stef's upcoming wedding. I feel like I got a lot accomplished with mom's help, it eased my stress quite bit. Ashley the girl who's making my and the girls dresses called me earlier
And told me that she made some alterations to my gown
The last time I was at her shop. She took my measurements, lately I have been watching what I eat these days. Plus l've working out with my personal trainer
He keeps me on my toes, him and his husband have there own fitness center. I'm putting the finishing touches on dinner, the girls are down in the family room watching TV
Stef's upstairs showering. I set the table
I cooked  lasagna from scratch and a salad on the side
It should last us for a few days, tomorrow l have to go check on tasty treats. Sharon's coming for a visit
She'll be here for couple of weeks, it will be good to see her. I know Ariana and Frankie, she always come barren gifts, l went to the grocery store to pick up some of her favorites. Especially the wine she likes it cost fifty dollars a bottle, it better be good. Stef came into the kitchen
Smelling all sweet and sexy. The timer goes off on the oven, l grabbed the oven mitts and take out the long dish out. I placed on the table, cause it was hot
You're never gonna guess who I ran into at the mall
Stef says to me. mm l give up Lena said
Baby you aren't even trying, anyway it was Keri
She told me that she missed us at the ice cream social
Then Keri talks about Quinn's birthday party
She brags on how much money her and husband spent
Then she gives me a piece of paper with gift selections
For Quinn. I believe she wrote the damn thing herself
Stef replies, we already gave Francesca permission to attend. What else did Malibu barbie say, Stef bust out laughing, oh she said to make sure Frankie bring her swim suit. Stef Stated, babe can you go tell Ariana and Frankie dinner ready. Lena asks Stef, what do I get in return. Stef questions, l'm not sure what asking
Lena replies. Stef goes to get the girls from the basement
While I begin making plates, l took the salad out the refrigerator and scooped up some in bowls. Alright you guys go wash your hands and come eat, you know I don't like cold food. Lena explains, we know mommy Frankie
Spoke. As she went upstairs, you need to talk to her
About being sassy l swear she has your mouth
Lena says. Thanks for the compliment Stef responded
Lena takes a seat at the head of the table, while Stef feeds Sofia. The girls came in and took their places
Francesca please watch how you talk to me, Lena tells her eight year old daughter. Yes ma'am Frankie States
Guess what girls Nana's coming for a visit on Saturday
Stef said, really l Miss nana Francesca replied.

No l don't think so babe Stef says to Ariana. Beside we have Sofia, Stef says as she looks at Lena who nods her head. Francesca was to engrossed in her food
Lena was enjoying her salad, Stef who was on her second helping of lasagna. Lena was sipping on a glass of red wine, Francesca it's night to do the dishes and Ariana don't forget to wipe the table please, Stef replied
Mommy are you still taking me to ballet class on Saturday morning. Remember we can't be late Ms. Heather told us last week, Ariana reminds Lena. Oh don't you worry missy
I got everything written down in my planner, l'm way ahead of you Lena responds. Love what happened
Stef asked out of concern, nothing to much
Ariana's new dance teacher went over the rules
That's all she takes her teaching seriously. Some of the other parents had a few concerns cause Heather was late coming in, she apologized for holding everybody up
I understand being her position. Lena States
