Monday's Moments

Just some random happenings from our day.  

Paul left for Ohio for the week.

Elena had her 5 month appointment.  She got 3 shots and two Daffy Duck band aids.  

She hardly slept all day and finally passed out at 8:45 (crap...she is tossing and turning and rubbing her eyes as I watch her on the monitor.  And now crying.)

I wore Elena poop for the first time.  Her blowout erupted out of the back of her pants while I was burping her on my lap.  Cloth dipes were in the wash and she was in a disposable. Nice.

I cried when my friend text me that Giuliana.Rancic  has breast cancer.

I made two boxes of frozen hors d' oeuvres from Trader Joe's for dinner and proceeded to throw them out b/c they were nasty.

Watched Elena as she pulled her paci in and out of her mouth, closely studying it while she maneuvered it with her little hands.  Her dexterity amazes me.

My most favorite time of today was nursing.  I adore how she pulls at my hair, strokes the fabric of my shirt, plucks at my bra strap, and punches and pokes at my boob.  It is the cutest thing ever.

I foolishly worried that a dear friend was mad at me.  Like we are in high school or something.  I can be totally paranoid sometimes a lot of the time. 

Time continued to fly, as it has for the past 152 days.  Just a few months ago those now exploring hands were balled up drinking fists.

I got a nose.frida in the mail today.  Google it.  It's not as gross as it sounds and I am kinda excited to try it.  

After 10 months of living at this address I finally ordered garbage service.

Ordering said garbage service was the only thing I checked off my list of things to do.  

I forgot to water the mums.

Lola peed 6 times on one wee wee pad.  That is by far the most ever! 

Grandpa stopped by.  His visits will be missed when we are in Ohio.  He'll have to learn how to SKYPE so he can sing to Elena.  

Halloween is coming and it needs to hurry so I can get this candy out.of.my.house.  Seriously, I will never buy candy so prematurely again.  Honest.  

Not bad for an unproductive Monday.  What's a post without a picture...
