this weekend was a big weekend! lots happened! on friday i met with charity for lunch and then a stroll around target. charity is getting married to chad in september and i am very excited about that.
on saturday seamus, sirus and i all went for a walk with our friend starla. starla is 19 weeks pregnant and is so cute that i can barely stand it. she has started to feel the baby move around and she is going to find out what kind of baby it is in another week or two. we walked to the u village and seamus played in the park while starla did some shopping. seamus is so fun to watch because she has so much energy and will jsut run and run and run. she was very good when it was time to go, only struggling a little bit at first but then settling into place. saturday dinner was pretty fun. sirus had his very first rice cereal. he made some funny faces but all in all it was a sucess. seamus was also very funny. her dinner was turkey, asparagus, cheese and whole wheat bread. but she decided she wanted cheerios instead and i decided that was ok. the funny part was when eric came home, i asked her to tell him what she had for dinner she rattled off all off everything that was on her plate, plus applesauce since that is what she thought sirus was having, but didn't mention the cheerios at all. she is a funny one.
i don't remember the rest of saturday.
on sunday i was all irritated and sulking because eric had been gone all day on saturday and then was going to be gone most of the day on sunday. i was mostly irritated because he was going on a two hour mountain bike ride but then when i asked when he was leaving and when he would be back it somehow turned into a 6 hour outting which in reality turned into 7.5 hours. but in the morning seamus, sirus and i met up with some friends for brunch. i had thought we were going to someone's house but really we were going to a resturant and i was all concerned how seamus would do with that. it turned out that she was really good. she sat in her chair and colored and ate her milk with a spoon and ate most of her oatmeal. she also ate 3 little packages of jelly but that turned out to be ok, too. i was so proud of her, it was a special treat to have her there. sirus slept the whole time. seamus picked out her own outfit, too. a green and white baseball shirt, pastel striped capri pants, her yellow rain boots and the 24 hour church of elvis bib. i don't know what the fascination with the bib was but she wanted to wear it, so she did.
then we went home. i had thought about taking the kids to the park but i was so tired so i didn't do it.
so instead of being lame and sulking when eric got home i decided to be more friendly and just get over it. its much easier to just get over it then to sulk.
so i headed off to swimming lessons. i was going to just pout and not go but i decided that maybe i should and i am totally glad that i did. so i get there and sign up for the beginner clinic which is what they recomended to me based on the info i told them. there were 10 people there, one of whom was in a bikini. not judging, just commenting. we did some drills and swam the width of the pool several times. it was very fun and i was learning a lot. i have to keep my head down and my butt up a little more apparently. after 45 minutes one of the instructors from the other, non-beginner group came over and asked me to join the intermediate group - the group that got to swim in the deep end and the whole length of the pool. that made me all happy and it made me feel like i was doing a good job! i was in the slow lane, but i got to do more and i found out that i have a really long way to go before i can swim 1/2 mile. but i am on my way. before i left i signed up for more of the clinics. i am so excited!
