Big Boy!

Nothing revolutionary to report today...but I love those kinda days!!

Worked all morning. Took off to run errands before I had to take Jack to his 9 month well baby check up. Turns out he is fine. Big Surprise. Sometimes I think the philosophy that we need to see your child twenty million times in the first year is a little bit overkill. But, I go so that i don't feel irresponsible when all the other Mommies talk. Good reason, I know.

He is continuing to grow at an amazing pace, and is off the charts in terms of height. So that will make his Daddy happy, who seems bound and determined that his son will tower over him. I think its something about the basketball scholarship that he never got....LOL!

I ended the afternoon by hauling the kids off to the farmers market. Mom is getting ready for a dinner party, so she was totally game to meet us there and get some ingredients that she needed.
The kids obviously just went after whatever they could that had processed sugar..so within 5 minutes they were so sticky that they didn't need to hold their balloons, the ribbon would just stick to their arm. And I'm not even joking. I should never have dressed Jenica in white and handed her a red snow cone. Lesson learned. Mom turned to me and said..."you may need to spot her top when you get home". I agreed, but really am considering submerging the whole thing in bleach and leaving it overnight. Laundry is not my passion.

We stopped for pictures before we loaded up the kids, and Im sure everyone is totally annoyed by my constant insisting that we take pictures. On the potty, while eating (grandpa kem flashbacks), watching TV, anytime that it may be relevant to put up here, I whip my camera out!

We got a phone call that we will be without water again tomorrow. Nice that we were warned this time, but isn't this illegal or something? I mean can we be deprived of a basic need for survival? I am thinking of digging a well, or at least putting in the pool and filling it with drinking water...just in case!
