~Hunting Easter eggs is very funny with a 2 year old. He has trouble finding his sippy cups, so searching for eggs was on the difficult side, even when they were hidden in plain view!
~After the egg hunt, Keith and I enjoyed a good laugh at Garrett’s inability to find things. About 10 minutes after said laugh, Keith comes in the living room and asks me "where’s my cell phone?" I wonder where Garrett gets it?
~Garrett has spontaneously decided that having his hair cut isn’t something worth screaming about (I wish this decision had been made a year ago). I gave him a haircut last night and he cooperated as best as a 2 year old can, and even said his reflection in the mirror looked "cuuuute!"
~Being told on Easter morning that you look "purty" by your 2 year old is the ultimate compliment. When it is then followed by an attempt to take a bite out of your necklace because he assumes it’s of the candy variety, it makes me wonder what exactly was purty, me, or the possibility that my necklace was made out of sugar.
~In other news, my mom turned 50 on Friday. I just had to share that on here. We love you Momma and wish we could have been there to celebrate! Garrett still sings "Happy Birthday to Nana" every day.
~I cannot believe that it’s almost April! This year is just flying by. I can’t wait for May so we can go to Indiana to see my family!
~I went to a store last Friday because I knew they were having a big sale and wanted to take advantage of it, if possible. I arrived approximately one hour after the store opened for the day. After making my selections, I walked up to the register and got in line. As soon as it was my turn to check out, an employee walks up to the cashier and tells her to shut it down so they can update their system. She turns to me and tells me it will only take "4" minutes. It’s very obvious that I have a 2 year old strapped into the stroller attached to my hands. Who makes the decision to shut off the register BEFORE checking out the mom of a toddler? After waiting there for 10 minutes (and listening to Garrett hollar "I wanna go home!" approximately 100 times), I told the cashier to forget it and walked out of the store, followed by 3 other customers. They should have taken care of that before opening that morning.
~Lost is the best show ever, seriously. If you have never watched an episode you should consider going to abc.com and start watching one here and there, starting at the beginning. I fully stand by the statement that you will LOVE this show. If you don’t want to look for the little hidden clues and read all the websites where everyone speculates as to what’s going on, you don’t have to and you’ll love the show just as much as I do. I have to say that when Rousseau died at the end of last week’s episode, I was sad. She’s been a good character who we haven’t seen much of. However, I was very happy that Claire and Jin lived to see another day. I’m assuming that they will eventually go the Rousseau route considering what we’ve seen in the flash forwards, but I hope that I’m wrong. I am not happy that we have to wait until April 24 for the next episode!! Darn you writers and your silly strike!
~I am back on another reading binge and I seriously need to stop. My mother-in-law isn’t helping me any. She brings me Walmart bags full of books that she gets through some sort of book exchange that she participates in. Our bookshelf is overflowing with books and Keith only has one shelf of Accounting books. He does not understand my reading addiction, but I don’t understand his desire to look up trucks and tractors on the internet, so I say we just call a truce and stop making fun of each other.
~We have decided we’re going to become pet owners. Yup, we’re headed to the pet store sometime this week to take the plunge. The only thing we can’t decide on is do we buy one or two goldfish? No, we’re not getting a dog or a cat or a bird, honestly I don’t have much of a desire to ever own any animal that is capable of making noise or has any sort of fur. Keith is in full agreement, but Garrett loves the fish in the aquarium in our church’s nursery so we’ve decided to get a bowl with a couple of them and let him enjoy watching them swim around. I’m sure atleast one of them will be named Nemo. Or he might step out a little and call them Buzz and Woody. We’ll see. I’ll keep you posted.
