thursday....

Although Jack still has long periods of sleep time, he is also beginning to keep his eyes open longer. He is 4 weeks old today & I'm not sure WHAT to do with him while he is awake.
today we will put on some music and dance, i think he will like that. I also think its never too early to start reading to him. I think it'll be good for him.
Any other suggestions??
Today has been a rather painful one...in terms of boredom.
We dont go anywhere because of this heat...and i;ve said it before...but getting the 3 of us ready to go out is near impossible.
I need to drop some paperwork off down the street, but for ONCE in my life- both of my children are snoozing. I CLEANED...and SHOWERED...and i painted my nails.
I await Brads arrival home from work so that i can...do....(just what im not sure. but) something.

everyone likes a free show.

i got to go to the Black Keys. As you see its taken me nearly a week to write about it. Annie, Frek, Christine, and Chris and I made our ways to the crowded Gallivan Center. It was baaad. even if you were way back in the back where I remember last year, we had room to lay on the grass.

Well this year, that "lay on the grass space" is non existent. We were shoulder-to-shoulder with everyone else the entire show. it was too ridiculous. last year I was able to bring Presley to the concert series. There's no way I 'd be able to bring kids this year. & as for attending the Iron and Wine concert, (which was the other of the series i chose this year) I think I'll pass. I do like the crane in this picture though.

Jack is 7 lbs now.
Presley is wearing undies.
but still....working on keeping them dry.
i'd say she's 50% potty trained.

Last night i made a great salad and a bbq chicken pizza.
Today I think we'll try getting out of the house.
tomorrow Jack is 4 weeks old.
&
its way too hot out there.

& he's not from estonia

ive been watching snapped this morning, it creeps me out kindof but i just keep watching,
i have to pay all my bills today.
we were supposed to pick dad up from the airport and have lunch today, but his flight got delayed and now cat is going to swoop him. Presley cried: "i wanted to get grampa from the airport"
she keeps begging me to go to Sweet Tomatoes, i thought it sounded good today too, but no way could i do that myself with two kids, i'd need a waitress for that.
the twilight concert series has begun. I picked a couple of thursdays that i wanted to attend, today being one of them: The Black Keys & Human Highway. Will we make it there? I dont even know. my life seems to have been put on hold, even when i want to...and other people want me to...its so hard to get out of the house. getting all of us ready is near impossible to do and be kept sane. and if i do manage to get us all ready and out the door, taking care of us all is such a chore out and about....i dont even make sense.
i stay home most of the day while brad is at work, and clean, and just....be a mom. its turned into quite the job lately.
i dont know how my mother did it. i start to appreciate her all over again, its quite amazing that she raised all of us kids, and she did it well too.

SOMEONE please come visit me, i would love the company.
