Outside my window... the sun is out, but temps are still (relatively) cool. We've had my kind of weather this weekend. Yesterday was a bit dreary (rainy and surprisingly cool), but today the sun is shining again. I like a bit of rain to mix things up every so often, but one day's worth is plenty.
I am thinking.... about so many things I can't keep them all straight.
I am thankful.... that the three of us made it through the night last night. This outcome wasn't certain at about 2am. Last night was night three in our Everyone Stays in Their Own Bed ALL Night regime and it wasn't pretty. When night 1 was not so bad and night 2 was downright easy we thought we were home free. We were wrong. Yogi voiced his complaint VERY LOUDLY last night and we're all pretty tired as a result. Cross your fingers that night 4 begins a trend in the right direction.
In the kitchen.... the times are changing. Again. Kate has gotten to the No More Room stage of the pregnancy and just about anything you can think of is just too much food. We've had huge salads with veggie burgers and as much sushi as we can get away with lately. I'm imagining that within the week we'll be done with meals entirely and on to all day grazing. If only it was cherry season already. It doesn't feel quite like the third trimester without them. ;)
I am reading... far too many books at once. As I type this, I have four going. I think this is likely a reliable indicator of my anxiety level.
I am looking forward to... a good night's sleep. Yes, I know I am a broken record.
I am hearing.... words like No! and Done! way more frequently than I would like.
Around the house... it's all Monkey all the time. The arrival of this baby and what we need to do to prepare for is all anyone around here can see at the moment.
One of my favorite things... is Sonobana sushi.
- Yogi helped with his first batch of banana muffies. Who knew the boy was such a skilled banana masher?! Yum!
- Kate made it home from Las Vegas with Monkey safely on board. Whew! NOT a fan of third trimester air travel.
- Yogi had an appointment with Dr. Wonderful and at 20 months he is 30" tall and weighs 23 lbs. When the doctor asked whether he had any words, Yogi piped up immediately with "Horsies. Hay!".
- Yogi made daily visits with his new best friend CoCo (the dog across the street) AND enjoyed lunch on the patio at Star Bagel IN HIS OWN CHAIR with his friend Eb-brett (that part is Yogi speak).
- The three of us spent the afternoon at the local Children's Theatre production of Click Clack Moo: Cows That Type. Total win. Yogi was mesmerized (I'm not sure he moved a muscle for almost an hour) and we had a blast.
- Kate and Yogi met a tarantula (they have 8 eyes, did you know that?!!) and what Kate described as a giant bunny at Zoo Babies. There was also a craft and animal crackers.
Here is a picture thought I'm sharing.... "MY Goldfish!". Sometimes when you've got good food, you've got to protect it.
