Hey All,
Tuesday was a big day for the little man. The over night was about par for the course, the 3:00 AM feeding is a total debacle. Graeme is happy to get up but, like Kayla who won't give up the ball after a game of fetch, Graeme won't go back to bed. Apparently he is either unaware of the time or not yet able to read his frog clock! At any rate, he fuses and Jenn and I lose a bit of sleep between 2:30 - 4:30. It is amazing however, that when he feeds again at 6:00 AM he goes right back to sleep once his belly is full.
As I mentioned in an early posting, Jenn and I have been doing some work around the house and yard, so yesterday we made a run to Home Depot for some potted plants and potting soil. Before all that though Jenn and I brought Graeme along to Chevy's for some Tex-Mex. Some o you might konw, but I have a few staples when I go for lunch; turkey sandwich and Cobb salad are always my first two choices. Chevy's has a really good southwest Cobb! Now Jenn is not the same as me, but is also a fan of the Cobb. So imagine my embarrassment when we both ordered the Southwest Cobb with salsa vinaigrette! I paired mine with a vintage Diet Pepsi with a lime and Jenn had Pinot Grigio. As we neared the end of the meal, the check came and we paid. We were having a good laugh about something when Jenn reached for the check and knocked the half full glass of wine into my lap! Nine months of sobriety has brought her tolerance way down!!
After Lunch we wheeled Graeme into T J Maxx to return a few items, pick up some stuff for the house and find me some workout underwear. After a brief scare on our way in, the woman I held the door or walked by me and said, "I don't think I feel very well!!" Jenn had visions of vomit flying, but thankfully nothing of the sort happened. If you didn't know, Jenn as an unfortunate tendency to be around when people are getting sick and somehow or another they end up getting sick on her it seems. We emerged from T J Max unscathed with new lanterns for the deck, a new tie and work out underwear for me, a few swimsuit wraps for Jenn, a jar of jam and a jar of Butternut Squash pasta sauce. That is a pretty standard T J Maxx or Marshalls run, a few things you "need" and a few more you clearly don't. We'll let you know how the jam a and sauce turn out.
After all that we went to Home Depot for Begonias, Marigolds and Spikes. Jenn planted when we got home and now are deck looks super fabulous!! I'll send pictures once the clouds clear and the sun is shining on our little slice of Northern Virginia. Janice and Gary stopped by for a quick cocktail hour then Jenn and I watched an episode each of Mad Men, Nurse Jackie and Untied States of Tara. Along with The Amazing Race and Grey's Anatomy these are our favorite shows!
That's about it. Talk soon
Peace
