The other day, I was "eating" Anya's toes. Ally thought it was great. She laughed and laughed (and Anya giggled too). But later, I walked upstairs and found Ally sitting on the couch with her foot in her mouth. Maybe not the greatest thing to teach her.
Rob started his new job Monday. He's already bored. Haha. He always tells me he'd be glad to be bored at work and now he's finding out that it's ... well... boring. Anyway, they are going to start real training next week. This week is just paperwork and training manuals.
I've actualy had work to do. I'm happy for something to do, but there was something wrong with my html and I couldn't for the life of me figure out what was causing it. I finally figured out how to fix it, but still don't know why it happened in the first place. Very frustrating.
Anya is a huge fatso. It's starting to be very hard to carry her in the pumpkin seat. But, she's much happier. I really had a hard time liking her to start with. She was a monster. She's settling in and becoming an easier baby. Boy, it's a good thing that I was too exhausted to post much that first month or so. I was not a happy camper.
I can't eat egg rolls. This really upsets me. There is a place in the town where my FIL lives that makes THE BEST egg rolls I've ever eaten. So, when we go visit, Rob and I almost always come home with some. (Like a couple dozen) They are so yummy. Well, we brought some home Sunday. I had one Sunday, and a couple Monday, and Anya turned back into a monster (complete with thumb-sucking, but that's a post in and of itself). I didn't have any Tuesday, and yesterday she turned back into a baby. I think the cabbage is bothering her or something. Boo-hoo. I want egg rolls!
We're having our 4th annual cookout on August 6th this year. I made up these cute little invitations, and had them printed. I made them the right size for some envelopes I had at home. Problem is that they printed them the wrong size and I didn't notice it and told them it was okay. So now I have to buy different envelopes. oh well.
"How did Ally enjoy the fireworks?" you ask. What fireworks? we didn't see any. Now I know that makes us the worst parents on the block, but honestly, it makes our life much easier. See, the thing about fireworks is that you can't see them until it's dark. And it doesn't get dark until after 9. That's Ally's bedtime. Hence, no fireworks. Someday maybe, but not now - sleep is better.
Speaking of sleep: mom took Ally to Jungle of Fun on Monday. She had to drag Ally out kicking and screaming. I guess Ally had a good time. Whaatever - she wore herself out and hasn't been feeling that great. Anyway, she fell asleep on the way home, and didn't wake up until the next morning. Well, she woke up a couple times, but mostly just moved a little and whined a little and went back to sleep. Then the next morning she puked. I think she just got too hot, and was a little sick to start with, then didn't eat for 18 hours or so... Anyway, she felt better and is back to normal now. She has never in her (short) life slept for 13 hours before.
Anyway, that's some fo the random boring things going on in my life. How bout you?
