Welcome to the family
Yesterday we became the owners of a pre-owned 2008 Nissan Pathfinder. Hammer Guy drove to Wausau, WI to get it and then drove back through a thunderstorm. Toad says it is "so awesome!" It is quite awesome.... stay tuned, though, for the rest of the story.
After a crazy close on Friday night (full moon -- lots of guest issues), I had Saturday and Sunday off. Saturday while HG drove to Wisconsin, the kids and I had lunch at McD's, spent some time at Barnes and Noble, and then stopped into the Hallmark store to start this year's ornament collection. The full moon has been affecting the kids, too. I was so ready for them to go to bed last night. And today was worse. We took Waldo (the new Pathfinder) on a spin to Dairy Queen for ice cream treats but that was all we could manage. I'm enjoying a few minutes of peace and quiet now that the dishes are done and the laundry is still in the washer.
Birdy had her 15 month appointment last week (tomorrow is her 16 month birthday!). She's a healthy girl -- 26 pounds, 1 oz, 30 3/4 inches, and her head size is off the charts. We love our little charlie-brown-headed girl!
The week ahead promises to be one of complete insanity. I am on call for jury duty (I do not have to report tomorrow, but will call in each night for the next two weeks), two managers are on vacation which makes for a tricky schedule, and Jason & Micah's wedding is Saturday. We're having a family get-together at Julie's on Thursday. Pictures to follow!
I'm going to go switch the laundry now and sit on the couch with a pile of magazines.
