2008_11_10 Monday -- 16 Months!!

It's been a busy morning!! Jonathan actually woke up at 8 today. I've gotta figure out a way to keep the morning rays out of his window (they leak in on the sides of his black-out shades)! After a yummy breakfast of yogurt and peaches, we headed out. First stop was gas! $2.21/gallon for credit cards: amazing!! Then, a Freecycler's house for three boxes of crayons. As it turned out, a floor store was supposed to be one block away, but the address I had was a home. So, I left a msg there to see if we can get a second quote for the kitchen floor. Yeah, floor guy is coming this afternoon to take a look. Booo, he never showed.

We browsed through Target (needed diapers, wipes, etc), and I bumped into a friend who's having trouble with her twins' nap schedule, so we chatted a bit. At home, we played outside on J2's new slide and swing (from the NY Hardwicks). Jonathan LOVES it. We had an appointment for a desparately needed oil change this afternoon (after J2 wakes up and has lunch) in South Orange, but it didn't happen. We'll try again tomorrow. In the meantime, I worked on/finished off a couple of projects while he napped (lavender satchels, b'day cards, laundry, kitchen appliances, etc). He ate an entire frozen meal -- BBQ chicken w/ corn and potatoes -- for lunch! Is that a bad thing for kids?

We walked to pick up Dave today. Jonathan walked/ran a good section of it. He kept pointing to the full moon, screaming out "ball"! And, he was even more adamant about it when we tried to correct him. Pick your battles, eh? So, he's having chicken fingers, noodles w/ broccoli and cheese, and peaches for dinner.

After our dinner, I spent some time searching for kitchen appliances. I think I've found all the major players, so now it's a matter of getting a good deal on the floor...and then getting going!!!

It's only bad if it's still frozen.
