Happy Birthday Dan, Edison, Paige & Sasha!
I hate it when I don't blog every day...
Anyhoo, a big ol' Happy Birthday to Chris's Dad Dan, Angie's son Edison, my cousin's daughter Paige, and my dearly departed mother-in-law's dog Sasha, who now lives with Chris's Auntie Wendy. Whew! That's a lot of birthday for one day!
Tuesday was fairly uneventful. Monday night was the first night in a few days where Cooper did NOT sleep through the night. I was up with him from about three until four-thirtyish. So Tuesday was a sleepy day and no nap for me. Supper was meatloaf and rice and veggies. Cooper and Carter both pigged out on the meatloaf. I was suitably impressed. I watched Veronica Mars and we had a mini-chat with a few of the girls from BSD. That's always a hoot.
This morning I got us all breakfasted and ready to go for a visit with our babysitter. She asked me to bring them by for a couple hours for another trial run. So I brought them over at nine and took off running errands. Brought Chris a coffee and bagel at work. Picked up my sunglasses (yay! Got my "big-girl" sunglasses back!), paid my dentist bill, went for my eyebrow waxing appointment. (This was the second time in a row that the boys just happened to be at the babysitter when I had an appointment...fabulous coincidence!) Picked up some printer ink. Stopped in at the office.
As I was picking up the boys, my Dad called (first call on my cool new phone! Whee!) He asked if I wanted to meet him at McDonald's for lunch. Ummmmm. Yeah!!! So I dressed the boys and headed over. We had lunch and Dad had picked up a MOUNTAIN of garbage from our garage - it almost filled the box of his truck. Crikey!
After lunch we came home. Nobody napped. Cooper had napped at the babysitter and Carter was high on caffeine from the pop I allowed him to have at lunch. Silly Mommy. Chris came home from work and there was no supper to be found. I need to go grocery shopping bigtime. So I ran to Safeway after Chris had his shower and picked up a roasted chicken and some buns and veggies. Talk about an easy supper.
Both boys were finally sleeping by about nine o'clock. We watched a bit of the new show with the very yummy Mr. Taye Diggs "Daybreak". Looks like it's going to be a good show. Finally something to watch on Wednesdays for the times I don't go to Bingo (which I think will be many). Cooper woke up screaming at ten. I tried cuddling, nursing, orajel-ing. Nothing worked. A few big noisy toots later and he seemed to feel better and fell asleep cuddling on my shoulder. Surprisingly he stayed down when I put him back to bed. Poor guy.
Had a little chat with Angie and my sister tonight. Good to do a little catching up whenever possible. No new layouts today...hopefully I'll find the time tomorrow to work on some stuff for me.

Hey Girl,
Love the shout out to my boy! He's quite a kid. . .gotta keep an eye on him as he grows. Afraid he's going to be quite the ladies man.
Have a meeting tonight, but hopefully, it won't be that long. Will try to find you.
My mood is some better. . . some.
Angie
