Missing Joe.

Nate decided to wake up at about 8:30am. I really didn't wanna get up that early, but I had to as he was crying a lot. And if you know Nathan, you know that if he cries an aweful lot, he will throw up. When I got up to get him, his hands were super cold. I forgot to turn the heat on last night. I put him in bed with me and we watched PBS. That didn't last long. He got up and went to play with the toys out in the "hall". Before I knew it, he made his way downstairs. I went after him and turned the heat on while I was down there; it was 57 degrees. We came back upstairs & watched PBS for about an hour until we were all nice & cozy!



After showers & breakfast & mo-zee-ing around the house for an hour or so, we left to go get my paycheck. They loved Nate's yellow short rain boots! Then to the bank, stopped at Dianne's work to get my checkbook, then stopped at a new kids resale store to check it out. We ended up getting a small See 'N Say, the vhs "Doug's 1st Movie", & some John Deere boots size 5 (they will fit the next kid we have but I couldn't pass them up for just $6!!!).



After that we stopped at Charlene's. We were there about 2 hours. Nathan had so much fun there. He tried to play with the animals a couple times but they really weren't that into him. He found a mirror, basketball, tall corner shelf, letter opener, batteries, candles, & scented oil to be great fun to play with!! He rolled the basketball down the steps a couple times. The 1st time he just went on down and got it. The 2nd time he tried to get me, Charlene, & Lexus to get it. We didn't so he found something else to do. He had an orange & he loved it!!



He rocked for a few minutes in the rocker and he was out. I layed him down and did some dishes. Most are done!! YA ME!!! He only slept for about 45 minutes and then we were off again. We went to Wal-Mart were the pharmacy line was horribly long (ok, so 4 or 5 people ahead of me was a lot a Nate had just woken up & wasn't happy!!) We finally got out of there & then made a very quick trip to the gas pumps. Then off to Mike's shop downtown. (The theatre opened today so we made a detour to see it.) Nate was NOT happy!! He screamed and cried the whole time Cindy & I were looking at fabric. OH MY THE FABRIC!!!! There is tons!!! We went to Yen Ching with them & I ate NO meat!! YA ME AGAIN!!!



We got home and Nate watched Curious George for just about 10 minute or so before we put in our new movie; Doug's 1st Movie. About 5 minutes after it started, Bob & Regina came over. I have no idea what the movie was about so we will need to watch it again. They stayed for maybe an hour & then left. Nate was is his pj's & ready to go upstairs by 9:45pm. I layed him in his bed, covered him up, kissed him, said good night and walked out. He cried for about 5 seconds - no joke - and then got up to play in the dark for about 5 minutes or so and then fell asleep on the floor in front of the bathroom. Why can't it always be that easy????



I'm thankful for friends & family to have around.
