~Hi Friends~

Forgive me in advance for my typos... Typing with a wiggle-worm in your arms will surely cause typos... Especially when that wiggle-worm is blowing rasberries on one of your arms!

Its nice and quiet right now.

Well, besides from the rasberries that is...

Rowan finally made it back to school this morning.  She hasn't been since last Wednesday.  She was welcomed back with open arms and lots of "You feeling better's?".  She seemed really happy to get back to school... And how some fun, ya know?

Mom is gone also.  She went to my grandparents house in the bay area to say hello and give them their anniversary present.  They have been married 59 years... Yes, what a long time...

Dad is at work today.  Normally he is home on Friday but because he took Wednesday off for their Frame Walk Thru on their home, he is working.

Derek is at dog training this morning.  He didn't seem like he wanted to go, but he did.  He was a wee-bit tired, if I do say.  Only had 4 hours of sleep.  And that is probably all he'll have today too.

So, it is really quiet.

I don't even have the TV on.  How weird huh?

The trip to the vet went well.  Lola just had to have her booster shots, that is all.  The Dr. said she is a really healthy dog and mighty good looking.  He always says how pretty she is... She is such a good dog too.  Loves us and the kids.  Very protective when need be... Only problem is is that she loves to jump- on the fence!!  So you know she is scaring the crap out of people who are walking by!!

Anyways.  Rowan was a little bummed that she couldn't go with me to the vet.  So she requested that I bring Lola when I come and pick her up.  Lola will love that... Two car rides in one day... lol.  And how can I say no to Rowan ;)

If all goes well this afternoon- if Rowan gets a good nap and all- I'll be taking her to a make-up dance class.  She seems all excited about that one.  Only thing is, she needs a good nap and I hope she is willing to take one!

Oh, by the way.  Last night wasn't as bad as the night before.  A little rough, but not too bad.  Zach was up at 3am and I fed him, but he didn't want to go back to sleep.  He fought and he cried.  Finally I got him on the brink of sleep and he took the bait and finally went out!

He didn't wake up again until 645!!  Woo hoo for me.

Zach seems to be feeling a little better today.  Still mighty congested though.  I still am gagging him every once in a while to get him to cough the junk up, but he is doing really well coughing it up on his own.  Now, don't go and think I'm a mean mom for doing that... The CNP told me to.  He can't cough it all up, because he is still learning how to cough!

Oh!!  Zach has his firt tooth!!  It has broken skin and you can see it and feel it.  Its on the bottom right hand side.  Funny thing is, it doesn't seem to be right in the middle.  It is off to the side a little.  Oh well.  The baby boy has his first tooth!!!

Anyways.  I have many things planned today.  Besides Rowan's dance class, Derek wants to make a trip to Costco.  We need to get stuff for his Bday BBQ.  We are also going to a retirement dinner tonight for someone from the PD.  I am not too hot on going... And neither is he, but we are.  Good thing his brother and sister-in-law are going to be there... That means I'll have someone to talk to!! lol...

Well, Little Man is wanting another bottle.  Plus, I think he might be making me a suprise in his diaper... So, I best be off!

Thanks to everyone who welcomed my friend Jolene to J-land too!!  I know she must be thrilled to have people visiting her J... And if you haven't stopped by... Go check her out : Operation Mommy Blog!
