So I'm starting a blog! It sounds like so much fun, a sounding board to no one in particular! Hopefully a way to share a bit of our daily life with family and friends from miles away, and maybe a little free therapy for me :)
John and I had a fun time picking out a name for this deal! He wanted to make some kind of play on our last name, but nothing fun came out of it. Then I tried to search the internet for other people's blog names (I mean, they wouldn't know I stole their name or anything...and it's not like they copyrighted it!) but nothing we found suited us. Then I thought about what I wanted to blog ABOUT: our daily life. So here we are. You may notice that I write "we" a lot. Haha, that would mean that John had some say in this! I am sure his only interest is that I don't put anything embarrassing on here.
Today is not a particularly exciting day to start on. Work for both of us which means little man goes to a sitter. I actually got to work on time today (10 min late) so that was notable. For dinner we used some chikfila coupons and let LM play on the playground. He was terrified. He held my hand for a while, then all the kids cleared (btw NONE of them were under 3 as the rules stated one must be to play) out at once and he got braver. Not brave enough to actually climb on anything, you know, but brave enough to walk around sans-mommy.
THEN a sweet little 6 year old girl came in with about a bazillion questions for us about 1 year olds. She followed and was followed herself. She got LM to follow her up to the TOP of the jungle gym thing, which he did so willingly, and then pointed out where he was....weeelll he froze. He started "mama-mama-mama-ing" and I got to climb up to the very top of the jungle gym to carry him down, I had to set him down on the next to last step to maneuver my way out (since I am taller than the average 3 yr old) and he was still paralyzed! I felt really bad, but I know it's good for him. I guess I am glad that he's not super adventurous in situations like that otherwise I would already have many bloody noses and goose eggs on my hands.
Then we came home and I got so bored I started a blog.....
