and Friday

As seen in the pic, Friday was full of consequences from Thursday. Harris was quite ill all night from his 10 bran muffin consumption. We had one casualty on the carpet and the rest made it on the kitchen floor...We did have a nice, quiet Saturday and Sunday:)

Thursday

Here's how my Thursday ended up:

Phone call from Matt at 4:52 pm, I am at work.
M: Les- you left the fridge open all day today
L: what, that seems odd
M: Yep
L: well, what is the damage?
M: the temp shows 81 degrees.
L: 81 degress- our house is kept at 67, how can the fridge be 81?
M: I took a picture because I knew you wouldn't believe me
L: I believe you, just surprised -I'll assess the damage when i get home, I'm sorry for causing a mess.
M: it's ok, i like that you make mistakes too sometimes:)

M: And the dog ate 10 bran muffins (Sand- your delicious 6 week muffins and we lost all the batter in the fridge)
M: And you left the treadmill on this morning
L: Should I still come home tonight?
M: yes.

Ladies- we all know how difficult it is to GET OUT THE DOOR and this morning i just didn't have my head on straight. The series of oopsies are a bit out of character but this morning was hectic.
Here's the checklist:
Myself, dressed and ready. check
Baby, dressed and ready. check
Baby bag check
My work bag check
Breakfast and lunch, check
Dog proof the house, check
Sorry i missed the fridge, bran muffins and treadmill, at least it wasn't the stove, water running or something else.

32 oz.

lead by example...
m knows how much his mom loves her beverages (and the 9 months she went without:))- he'll reach for anything these days...and it makes me smile seeing him go in 2 handed for my 32 ouncer.

my little man

I call murphy my little man and he certainly is beginning to act like one. He's always looked like one since he was born, in part to his "comb over" at such a young age but now his actions are catching up with his looks. I love his comb over- what other 5 month old has such a problem.

M was sick this last week, but i think we're on the up and up. He had the crup and 2 ear infections (awesome). Since part of his medication were pills, we dove into the big boy food this week and he loved it and his new highchair- thanks grandma D. In addition, a few of the photos show how Harris and M continue to co-exist. As we have milestones with Murphy, it is certain Harris will be RIGHT there to expereince the occasion with us. Those two will be best pals, i'm sure of it as M gets older.

And finally, M has started to laugh and it is so fun to hear him think something is funny.

thanks santa for my new toy!
