Another day in the mountains...

Things have been pretty uneventful around these here parts. Yesterday Liz and Adella came over and the kids bounced in the house for a while. Kyle had class, so Henry and I walked to the co-op and to the bakery. Okay, WE didn't walk, I walked and pushed him in the stroller in what felt like 100 degrees. It felt good to get out and move around, though. We came home and took a bath together, which we haven't done in ages but Henry refused to get in unless I got in, too. It was actually fun. We splashed around and played with bubbles and dinosaurs. I then managed to complete what should be considered the Iron Man Triathalon of montherhood. I combed out the little dreads in the back of Henry's hair. I trimmed fingernails. I trimmed toenails. And for extra style points, I did it all without dispensing massive quantities of sugar. And the crowd goes wild!

We saw an amazing movie yesterday. Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang with Robert Downey, Jr. (who I unabashedly adore) and Val Kilmer. It was hyesterical. It isn't a movie for everyone, the humor can get a little odd, but I think it is up in my Top 10 Most Favoritest Movies of All Time at the moment.

Tonight I get to go out! And someone is driving me, so I can even have a few drinks! Since Kyle's class eclipses my usual Monday night outing, I haven't gotten a chance to go anywhere in a while. I am excited. I am going to have to take my knitting, though, because I stocked my Hyena Cart Tuesday and I'm swamped now. Swamped with one notably difficult customer. I think she wants me to email her every night with a progress report. Pth.

We also have a postpartum party to go to this weekend. Our friends Amy and Brian just had a little wee boy, Luke. They didn't find out the gender ahead of time so they decided to have a shower-like-get-together after the baby was born so that people could shop accordingly. It sounded like a great idea when I got the invite, but now I am picturing her having all that company a week after the baby was born and I think she might be crazy. I broke into my new Malabrigo stash to knit Luke a teensy little sweater for the Fall. I am trying to figure out what to get for big sis Ava. She is super girly princess girl. I think I might give her that little knit rainbow bag with a couple of bendy fairies in it or something. We'll see.

Okay. I have to go get us dressed and pack a little bag. Kyle took the car today so we are going to walk down and meet some folks at the park nearby.
