Butt Tattoos and Lawnmowers 5/28/08





So, I decided to start this blog as an attempt to keep track of daily life. We'll see if I am any better at keeping track of it than I am at managing it! Today was a GORGEOUS day! In the upper 60s with beautiful sunshine (not something we get everyday here in PA!) and just a very gentle breeze. J was off work so we had a fantastic, relaxed family day. Not too much to report. C did get a fabulous pirate skull-n-crossbones tattoo right on his BUTT!! It will be a nice surprise for Grampy tomorrow when he does the first diaper change. I wanted to post a pic of that, but don't feel like being arrested for having baby butt pics posted online! Then, I had a big plan to post a video of C helping Big Daddy mow the lawn, but I am not technically adept enough to post videos. Instead, I will post a pic of C hanging out in the back of the pickup. Hopefully, only one more week and the pickup will be history and the van will be parked in the driveway! Scrappy and Spanky have been behaving today so I am grateful for that...drs appt tomorrow so we will see if I have to do actual bedrest or if I can keep up with my "restful" routine.
Creepy Question of the Day: What would you do with your kids if something happened to you and your spouse?
I never really thought about this much before, because I figured it would be no problem to find someone willing to take C. But with #2 &# 3 on the way it really changes things. It would be a much larger burden to shoulder and something for people to really think hard about. I think I would like the kids to go to my brother, but I have no idea how he would feel about that idea. Hmmm...that is an interesting conversation to imagine...
Good Things:
*J got a call about a new job that would only be 5.5 miles from our house!!
*We got a cheaper rate for our electric bill!
*We got the truck to start AND got the registration card so we are ON for trading it in and getting the mom-mobile!! WOOHOO!
