is is a four day weekend for ben. in service day on friday that got cancelled b/c service dude got stuck in NY. and president’s day on monday. upon hearing that he had president’s day off, i promptly made myself a dr’s appt for a physical. also. to get my wrist bump looked at, though i am 99% sure it is a cyst.
it has been excellent so far. though pretty social. on friday we took the whole family to the vet. yes. children + dog + cat. We LOVE LOVE LOVE our vet. and she hadn’t met liam yet. and she just had a baby 3 months ago. so i wanted to see her. and ben had this random friday off so we got ourselves a double appt. and it was fantastic. the kids were in awesome moods. and they gave the cat a mini spa day (brush, nail clip, and some spot cleaning) and they cut the dogs nails. so that was fun.
yesterday i went to a late lunch with my friend. i learned that brown sugar is also an irritant to her baby resulting in him getting up at night. so looking back it is OFFICIAL that i ate pretty much everything that can be a irritated besides milk. oh well. so it goes. i just tell myself that it is good for his system seriously. it was like at any point in time before NOW did moms cut things out of their diet to nurse. and i’m pretty sure they all drank milk in the 1900s. anyways. it was nice to get out. also. we went by an AWESOME bakery. seriously. i am still picturing the array of yumminess in my mind.
today we had college friends of ben’s over with their twins. i think they were 6 months. though they were born early. very very cute. we had brunch. it was yummy and fun. they don’t know many people with kids. so i bet it was funny to them to come visit people and those people not be all like i want to hold your babies! b/c we have babies. though i did like to make faces at them. though. twins. wow. though b/c they spent some time in the NICU, our friend theorize that that is the reason they are more chill in being put down in swings and chairs and such. unlike my child. who is anti being put down unless he is pulling himself up on the laundry basket.
and then ben and i are filling nap times and bedtimes with super mario bros for wii. i am addicted. and have mad skillz. ben tried to tell me at first i was just lucky. but i was like NO, i am just AWESOME. and so now in retaliation i post all over the internets about how much more awesome i am at the game then he is. i only speak the truth. in fact. he now agrees that i am just awesome. (ben just took a bow for a little maneuver on the game. dork.)
in other news, since acquiring the kindle in dec, i’ve now read more books then i did all of the year before that. loving it. especially b/c for my bday i got a bunch of amazon money for books (thanks carter and fam!)
and in the LCD crack update. it has spread since i dropped the computer off the arm of the chair on friday when i remembered that i had left the dog in the car for an extended period of time and forgotten about her. in my defense she ran out there and got in the car and would not come out earlier. anyways. it is pretty awesome. the crack.
