Ok, there was never a performance tonight, but tomorrow was a party for our family.
We canceled it due to stomach flu. Which now two children have, or E, who is 6 tomorrow, and Dash who is visiting from the northwest and 13. D has always been one of my favorites, so i am so very sorry the two of them got sick. Exploratorium - a petri dish of love two days before the labor day weekend.
Now, the birthday boy has bounced a bit like toast. The big boy is still very sick. The baby is sleeping as I write this and woke up with a big smile on her face at 6 am or so. So dont love 6 am.
Everyday, throughout the day, I will often think of things I want to post about, then the time comes, the baby and the boy are asleep, the dog is walked, the DH is either working, watching TV or sleeping, and I get my computer out and look at stuff in my inbox, wondering what I have forgotten to finish, and my mind goes blank. Tired mom brain.
Miss B is really moving and growing. The most exciting news is at her 9 month check up, her head circumference is in the 75 %! YEAH! The doctor was really excited and thus, so am I. Her height is up to 25% and her weight is not to be published....no I actually have forgotten if the doc said 60 or 90%. She did say we probably dont know her true % as of yet, they are still balancing out. YEAH!
She crawls, she stands, she babbles and perhaps talks, hard to say. She babbles in response to things, usually babble sentences, sometimes actual sentences, but the men debate it. Andrea just repeats what she says. E said, what, do you speak baby? Andrea and I often understand her. DH thinks we are nuts. She is very happy and very, very busy.
More pictures soon.
Two more survivors went down in the "try to beat the stomach virus" weekend....last night, the dear baby from Portland tossed his cookies all over the kitchen. He was in a backpack, so also in the line of fire was his mother, Sheri and the kitchen floor. It was spectacular. I joined the ranks about two hours later. Now, they have fled for home (okay their tickets were set, but I do hope they return, someday!) and started in on thinking about what might come next.
What was supposed to happen so didn't, it is funny. Huge weekend, lots of plans, none of which happened, but instead, we hung out, watch the kids play, said goodbye to friends, so suddenly, and wait for September to begin it's thing.
Here's to a great year.
