Simon finally broke down and got glasses. He isn't sure about how he looks in them. I think he looks nice. Of course he never smiles nicely for pictures but I am amazed I got a picture (even from a bad angle).
Normally, Sim and I have our friends over to our house to have dinner, play cards, and drink every other month or so but we haven't had a chance because of Christmas and Anna having the baby. We (the ladies) decided that we better meet up for lunch before school goes back.
On Wednesday, my friends Sharon (and the kiddos), Amanda, and I went over to Anna's house for lunch. I really had a great time. I got to hear all about Amanda and her honey getting engaged while they were in China. They are planning a wedding in SRI LANKA!!! We caught up on school gossip and I heard mommy horror stories. Did you know that babies cry for a month straight for no apparent reason and there is nothing you can do about it?! Seriously, apparently all babies do this and it's normal!!! I was freaking out, but holding this little cutie made it all go away. I couldn't help but giggle that her hair was standing on end.
CHEESE!
My Favorite Girls!
This what an 11 year old does in a house full of women!
Sharon and I have a tradition where we go to Costco during the breaks from school. It works out well for the both of us because I don't drive into the city and I feel like I am making good use of our membership. The kids LOVE coming, too! Between the giant (piled to the ceiling) stack of toilet paper and free food sample what's not to love?
By far the best part is all four of us eat lunch for under $20 which isn't even possible at McDonald's here. The first time we went I had to explain to Mitchell how big the pizza slices are. Sim struggles to eat the whole thing at times. He is always determined to eat the whole slice. We always have fun guessing what Zoe will pick to eat because she never likes it and won't eat more than two bites.
So for Mitchell's birthday he wanted to have lunch at Costco. I was extremely impressed when he ate his whole slice and about a third of Zoe's. His new nickname is Seagull because you can hardly finish your food before he wants what is left.
The cheeky and gorgeous Miss Z.
Photographic proof of the craziness from last week. I was so unorganized that I bought the wrapping paper on the way to Sharon's house and wrapped Mitchell's present on the trunk of my car.
My cat, Lucky, loves me and to be anywhere I am. He often feels the need to help me complete any household chore I am doing. And like all cats he enjoys sitting in locations he shouldn't be in.
What?! This is an inconvenient place to stand?
What you just wash, dried, and ironed these clothes?
Then, yes, I am required to sleep there and put cat hair all over them.
Happy Australia Day to my Australian friends and family! I am celebrating by having my own Katherine Heigl movie marathon... Knocked Up, Life As We Know It, 27 Dresses and the Ugly Truth!
P.S. The awesome side effects from triggering have started. Namely my boobs are LARGE and in charge! And seriously tender!!!!!!!!!!
