Some days are just Good Days...

TRex woke up around 6:30, we did our morning thing and got M off to work around 7:30.  The morning was punctuated by TRex slamming her closet door on her foot which required icing and clearly hurt her for a good bit of the morning even after some Tylenol.  We played outside / shoveled out the plow refuse, watched the Little Einsteins, ran some errands, had lunch with a friend, TRex took a nap while Steph and I dug through the infant clothes for stuff that would fit S's son when the adoption finally wends its way through the bureaucracy.  After nap, we made collages and snowflakes, and then M came home and we had extra tasty dinner (chicken, broccoli, and stuffed shells that Slightly Batty Neighbor brought over last night) and our package arrived from Lands' End so TRex and I had new boots to tromp around in and so on...  And she was in bed before 8.

I feel like I'm not articulating it well... it was just a very, very relaxing.  Steph and I are probably going to go finish off our shopping together tomorrow afternoon.  Yay, shopping buddy!

Thank you for posting days like this. It makes me look forward to being a mom in a couple of years.

This was one of the idyllic ones... one of the ones I envisioned when I made the decision to keep her home with me at least one day a week until pre-K. One of the ones that makes any delay in getting my PhD done TOTALLY WORTH IT.
