thoughts

randomness from the last 24 hours

*i get overwhelmed walking into craft stores even when i have a very clear plan of what i'm doing there. seriously, i completely lose track of what i was after as soon as those doors woosh open. it's really disconcerting.

*pm does karate in his sleep. i know this because this morning after the power came back on, i went upstairs to check on him and was treated to a flury of rapid karate chop type movements followed by a smile. and then peace.

*when the power goes out, i wake up. and then i freak out. at least if it's winter. in the 2.5 hours we didn't have power it dropped 6 degrees in our house. i was deciding whether i should bundle everyone up and plop us all in the same bed when it came whirring back on. problem solved.

*bebe really seems to be enjoying herself. she likes eating solids. she likes eating her spoon. okay, she likes eating. and she's getting pretty darn close to being mobile! she regularly gets up on all fours, i'm just waiting for the rocking back and forth that preceeds the crawling.

*also, her eyes are still blue. i pm's took a long time to change but it would be so pretty if hers would stay blue. i always wanted blue eyes. but i remember the good ole punnett square and brown eyed mama plus brown eyed daddy usually equals brown eyed baby. and that okay too!

*i have started planning what will become our annual birthday party. pm was (un)fortunate enough to be born at the beginning of may and his birthday this year actually falls on mother's day. plus the weather is unreliable. so we will be having one party for both of them at the end of july. better weather for outside shenanigans. only have to cook and decorate once. i'm excited because if we do it in the summmer, my family can come out for it!

*i just realized he will be 5(!) in three (3) months. zomg. wow. i'm not sure i'm ready for that but it's a nice distraction from how old i will be in just under 2 months. not ready for that either. but that's a different story for a different day.
