things i learned today.

Photobucket

1. sick babies are really really really no fun and super cranky.
2. i ♥ charlie and lola. i put serena down for a nap and instead of working on the millions of things i needed to do {or watching tv made for adults}, i watched charlie and lola. it's adorable. the illustrations are so fun.
3. sometimes you really do have to sleep when your baby does. and that's why i went to bed at 8pm last night. i haven't done that since i was pregnant!
4. nasal aspirators really gross me out... but they get the job done.
5. cooking dinner every night is hard. and that's why i ended the cook's challenge with takeout. sorry to disappoint, fellow chefs.
6. you actually do get used to pushing a shopping cart around the store with a giant carseat totally obstructing your view. and then it feels weird when the carseat isn't there.

this sums up the general mood around our house today:Photobucket

i'll admit. i was counting down the seconds until bedtime. now we can finally start preparing for our family vacation which begins tomorrow! we're crossing all fingers that serena will be over her cold very soon.

So sorry she's sick - that sucks.

I'm glad to hear about the grocery cart vision thing....right now I think I'll never get used to it. :)

Oh Ariel sounds like my weekend! Brecklyn cried all day yesterday and I couldn't wait for bed time. The minute she was out I went to bed with her. It makes for a long day!

I hope Serena starts to feel better. Colds are no fun! Have fun on your trip.

Have fun at the cabin (i think that's where you're going) and hopefully Serena feels better for the fun trip!
