Re: AW Thursday

  • I finally get to go out with the girls tomorrow night.  between a few of us having babies and travels and work, this has been a hard thing to coordinate.

    BR: DS can now roll himself across the room and scoot himself backwards.  Baby gates are now needed!

  • It's a mixed blessing "AW" but Dayne has a tooth coming in - already.  Hopefully it happens fast and isn't long and drawn out.

  • So, about 3 years ago DH bought the frame for a hard-top for his jeep, but all the windows were broken (he got it for ~$75).  We thought we could get cheap glass for it, but that didn't work out so well - would have cost ~$700 for glass from the factory.  Anyway, last night he was poking around craig's list and found a damaged hard-top selling for ~$200 - but all of the glass is supposed to be in perfect shape. 

    So, the AW is that we (hopefully) will finally have a complete hard-top for the jeep just in time for us to consider putting it up for sale.  DH is hoping that the $275 may net us close to a grand in the final selling price.

    My aw is Gabriel is almost walking.  He's to the point where he will only hold one hand instead of 2 and he's reaching out to us.  I give him a few more weeks!

  • This morning when I was getting Brendan dressed for daycare he said to me:

    "You're my best friend and you're the best mommy in the world" he then gave me a hug!  It came out of no where and it melted my heart!!!!

  • -I cleaned the house last night... like really cleaned it.  i dusted, vacummed, mopped, washed down things, cleaned out air vents, cleaned blinds, did the bathroom, dishes.  It feels so good to have a clean house.

    -going to dinner tonight with a close friend that i haven't seen in a couple of months, we've had this dinner planned & cancelled at least a dozen times but it appears it's finally going to happen.

    -My mom is in town!  Although I won't be able to see her until next week because she's going to the nascar race, i'm excited.  I hate that she lives OOS.

  • BR: I have been breast feeding for a whole year. I am SO proud of myself for making it. It definitely wasn't easy at first, but I'm so thankful that I have been lucky enough to have a good supply.

    (I can't even think straight cause I'm so excited for firewife)
