Wordy Wednesday

Tempting Tuesday

Dinner with a view

Albert slept for 7 hours last night!

This week is kicking my butt. I am glad I have the chance to sleep while I can!

Wordless Weekend: missing spring

Wordless Weekends: Nebraska sun...

irony is...

• waking up WAY before your alarm clock... on the weekend
• working overtime the week before vacation, so that you can go on vacation
• parenting in the opposite way that you thought you would

Now he's half Aunt Christine's height.

Funny Friday: toddler tango

I discovered recently that They Might Be Giants, Bare Naked Ladies (Albert's favorite band), and a slew of other "adult" bands that I love make children's albums as well.

TMBG has one called "Here Comes Science" and another called "Here Come the 123s".  My favorite line was an old joke... Why was six afraid of seven?  Because seven "eight" nine.

Make a list of things you want to do before the end of this year...

Make a pair of pants

Make pajamas for Albert for Christmas

Go to Florida

Try some new whiskey

Learn to do something new

Funny Thing of the Week

Albert has figured out that it is HUGE fun to feed other people.  So now, when he's eating crackers, he'll hold it up like he wants you to take it.  That or he'll try and SHOVE it in your mouth.  Which is kind of funny... and he giggles and laughs and does it again and again.

When we last left our heroine, she was perfectly healthy...

And then I fell and sprained both ankles.

And a week after starting PT for ankle sprain, I fell and injured my knee at work.  I have an MRI scheduled for next week.  The suspected injury is a meniscus tear and an MCL tear, both of which would require surgery.

Yippee.
