(ugh, blogger is doing strange things and just deleted my entire entry!)

Ouch, not feeling so great this morning. How sad; I only had 2 glasses of wine and 1 beer all night. I am such a lightweight these days. I woke up with Dave this morning (6am) for a bottle of water and some aspirin. Then I got up again at 8 to get the recycling out. Of course, the cardboard people came at 10, and the plastic/metal guys have yet to show up (nearly 1). Just my luck.

Jonathan got up at 9:30 and had a very light breakfast (not even a whole McHardwick). Then we headed out to the vet to pick up the cats' food. We stopped by Home Depot to check out pricing for wood and tiles. Marginally successful, since they didn't carry the exact type of wood I was looking for. Then, we checked out a relatively new mom/pop market and got blueberries and bananas for lunch. I had wanted to visit the Benjamin Moore store to check out the paint recommendations for the kitchen, but Jonathan started to melt down. Instead, we headed home. He napped for about 2 hrs. I was able to call a few stores about the wood floors. Not too successful, though.

The weather completely fell apart; it's been rainy and ugly out. So, we couldn't really do much outside. Check out the picture I took over lunch. It's Jonathan showing where his cheeks are. He can now pull his highchair over to where we eat and return it afterward. He's even tried to climb up, but that's not such a good idea yet. Afterward, we chased each other around and played with trucks and blocks. He's napping again. This time, with much less success.

I got him up (if he ever actually slept) just after 6. In talking to Dave, he suggested we do dinner at our local Irish pub. Gesh, don't gotta ask me twice. Jonathan had a kiddy burger and did really well, although he ended up wearing an awful lot of katchup. And, he had a lot of katchup sandwich. He charmed all the ladies around us. He's fun.
