Crazy Day

OK, I have no idea of how that other post with nothing on it got on here, so just ignore it. It's been a CRAZY day today so far. Corban got up in the night, so we all slept in a little - it was almost 8 before I got up and got in the shower. Everybody got ready and we headed out by 9:30. I dropped Corban off at Bonnie's so that Johnny and I could both go to Caden's doctor's appointment. Bless Bonnie's heart, when I dropped him off, I just asked how long I could leave him. I realized I had very few long sleeve outfits for either one of the boys. Anyway, we took Caden to the doctor. Everything looks fine. He's 12 lbs 7 oz which puts him in the 75th percentile for his age and means he's gained 2 lbs 3 oz since his 1 month check up. His head circumference is just 15th percentile too - it's gone from 30th to 20th to 15th - that's why I call him "pea head." After the appointment I took Johnny back to his truck that we had left in town and fed the baby in the car while we waited for his lunch appointment. Then I headed to the mall. Someone gave us $50 in gift cards at Macy's so I went there first. I just bought 1 pair of pants because everything is so expensive there! I know it's basically free when you're using gift cards, but when I can get the exact same things someplace else for much cheaper, it just galls to have to "spend" the money. Anyway, I did much better at Children's Place and JC Penny - I do love those two stores. I bought Corban a pair of shoes for less than $1.50 plus I had taken back a few things so I didn't actually spend any of my money there.

After all of that I picked Corban up and brought him straight home to put him down for a nap - a very late nap. He's sleeping now but I'm going to have to wake him up early because Nina and I will have to leave before 4 to go to her dance class. Johnny's gone all day with visitations so I'm on my own.

Both boys were WONDERFUL last night at Luke and Nadine's. Corban didn't get into anything and Caden was content most of the time. It was such a pleasant evening AND the Steelers won!
