Almost bedtime…quick blog before I hit the sack. And hopefully by sack I mean, my bed. Although we were just at Pasquali’s (a high class joint in our local mall) and after I had had enough, the bartender sponsered another round. You can’t pass up free booze right? So I had a little more, and then shot my mouth off–much to Amy’s dis-pleasure. So that’s why I say I hope it’s my bed…as opposed to, the couch.
In other news, Will (my brother in law) and I put in a new water heater tonight. The Kenmoore Power-Miser 9 (40 gal). That was a nice little scratch to my archetypal machismo. Now we can take a shower, and do the dishes at the same time!
Ok, now onto the good stuff:
Jamie (shown above, right sporting his superhero look, and one of my t-shirts as PJs) had a sleep over at our house–SO MUCH FUN! We rented Disney’s “The Wild” which he thuroughly enjoyed. And we had lot’s of time to play with Lucy too!
Jamie and Lucy did really well together. Although at first, they were both so excited to see each other that they worked each other up into this hyper-spazmic tizzy that had Jamie flailing his arms around all over the place, and Lucy looking to bite this new flailing toy she found.
Here’s a quick run-down of what our Saturday was like with a 10 week old puppy and a 3 year old boy:
5:40am: Lucy starts whinning for breakfast.
5:55am: We stop pretending that if we just ignore it, it will just go away and we feed her.
5:56am: She’s done with breakfast, so we put her back in her kennel in hopes of sleep.
6:00am: Jamie comes in saying that Lucy woke him up, and we should all get up and watch “The Wild” with him (my response was: “no Jamie, the sun isn’t up yet, so god wants us to keep sleeping.” it worked for about an hour).
7:00am: Both Lucy and Jamie made it clear that there would be no more sleep this morning.
8:00am: “Jamie, what do you like for breakfast?” “Pancakes!” (he settled for frozen waffles).
…I could keep going hour by hour, but I think the early hours are give a good idea, and to summarize the rest of the day, we:
-took a bath (Lucy’s chew toys make great bath toys too!)
-played fetch with Lucy
-watched ninja turtles (fast forward)
-watched “The Wild” some more.
-went over to see J&J’s kids Emma (3) and Isaac (1). All was well here, except we did have to perform a couple of “hand checks” when Emma and Jamie were getting too friendly.
-lunch: for Jamie, mac and cheese. for us, papa john’s
-had “nap” time which consisted mostly of watching “The Wild”.
-more fetch time with Lucy
That’s about all for now. I’ve got to go up and see if I’ve got a place for me up there.
Much love to all the homies,
