as per request -- an updated blog entry!
We had a great time out for dinner and at the movies. "Fun with Dick & Jane" was super funny, but did have some sad moments. I would recommend it though.
Cathy had her little girl, at 8:45 a.m. on the 12th. She named her Keira Madison, and she was a tiny 6lb, 2 oz and 19 3/4 inches long. She looks adorable and I'm hoping to meet her next weekend when we're down.
On Friday the 13th (insert corny 'twilight zone"-ish music here), I worked for 3 hours, and then we all went to baby group where Patrick had a great time flirting with the girls. Its not uncommon for him to be the only boy his age at baby group (there is usually another boy there, also a Patrick, who is 3) and he has a great time playing with new toys and making noises and faces at the girls. Shaun had a great time too, but felt a little out of place as he was the only daddy.
Saturday we cleaned the house. Its wonderful to have a mostly-clean house! I dusted, vaccumed, cleaned bathrooms and put laundry away. We had Shaun's parents over for dinner and had a cake to celebrate Shaun's birthday. Patrick was intruged by the candles!
So... Shaun's gone out to get us lunch, and Patrick is napping! I just finished cleaning out my old desk, which we're moving to the basement when my parents come to visit in March. Shaun finished putting the DVDs in the new DVD shelves that he put up yesterday, and we've decided on a colour for the hall-stairs-hall -- a greyish blue-- as well as a carpet runner for the stairs in grey. For my birthday, my mom is making me curtains for the living room that are very very very similar to the fabric on my couch, and she's also making me 3 'toppers' for the kitchen and dining room windows. We also got new pillows and a new blanket for the living room. Its quite a change.
Enjoy the sunshine everyone! Mmm.. lunch is home!
