We have been discussing replacing Eric’s commuter car for awhile. Today he said something about a motorcycle. But I reminded him that J3 still needed to go to Dixon too…unless I was homeschooling him next year (a constant request from me). For about 5 seconds I could see him fantasizing about having a motorcycle again! lol I didn’t get my hopes up! But I love it when I think of an argument that he can’t quickly refuse!
Finally JGirl is no longer just flipping over onto her back the moment we lay her down for tummy time. She is starting to pull things to herself and even pivot on her tummy in order to get closer to things!
JGirl had her baby shower last Saturday – here are a few pictures from the day – more can be found on my flickr page:





We have a 2nd tooth!! 😀
So glad it wasn’t an ear infection!! I hope future teeth come in easier – this weekend was NO fun!
So, for those keeping track (Grammy!)
First Tooth: 3/30/2008
Sitting up by herself: 4/20/2008
Second Tooth appearance: 4/28/2008
- Today J3 has a playdate in the community where Eric teaches – 20 min away.
- JGirl has a WIC appt – hope we can figure out if we are feeding her adequately. If we could get a therapist here before the 6 week deadline we’d know what to do about her tongue thrusting – is it getting better or worse?
- Later today, J3 has speech therapy in the same 20 min away community.
- J1 and J2 need to be sure and collect mail, paper, feed/play with cats and water the garden at my friends house. Which of course means I’ll transport them and ‘remind’ them of all their commitments!
- I need to follow up on a playdate for J1
- I need to plan dinner – if J1’s friend is joining us, I need to make sure I have enough – he’s a big boy!
- I have several people I need to contact about several things.
- I need to work.
- I need to do laundry, etc, etc, etc, etc.
Yeah…I’m sort of wishing we had made more of an effort to get out of town during Eric’s May Fair break.
3.5 weeks of nothing seemed like such a good idea at the time.
How can all this nothing feel so stressful???
