Nathan's Fight

It’s still Wednesday for at least 2 more hours and I have a billion cute pictures sitting on my memory cards from as far back as New Years Eve. My computer screen time these days is fairly limited. So I guess I just have to get used to my evenings in front of the computer screen, listening to the squeaky fan on my video card, alternating between thinking “gosh this sound is annoying”  and “if this fan craps out, it is going to be one expensive item to replace”. Anyway, the photos intermingled in this post are from Jay’s family holiday party on New Years Eve.

I often find Nathan making himself mustaches out of bananas, markers, and even colored pencils. I think mustaches suit him, don’t you?

While I have Nathan on my mind…I am so proud that he ate an entire medium McDonald’s french fry today all by himself.  I am not so proud that I forget to pack his enzymes.  That’s is going to be 19 grams of fat right down the toilet, quite literally.

He also has been on a Reese’s Pieces kick lately, probably because he sees his daddy throwing them in his mouth by the handful.  Well, guess what, daddy is now banned from the Reese’s Pieces because Nathan likes to eat them.  Why? Because I said so, end of discussion.  Unfortunately, after Nathan ate a few enzymes worth of Reese’s tonight he vomited.  Fortunately, I caught the vomit before it became a crime scene.  As I was dumping the vomit I was a little excited to see that it was almost a 1/4 cup of straight mucus.  Better out than in!

What a day!  A little over an hour and a half left in this glorious Wednesday.

It took every ounce of patience and determination in me to convert a contract into an adobe pdf and email it to a client this evening. Patience to listen to a whining overtired, napless little girl at my legs and determination to get that contract to my client without another day going by. Starting a business with two little ones might be the most difficult thing I’ve ever tackled.  It was more exhausting to complete this simple task than it was to run 3 miles, can you believe that?  Good thing she is cute and good thing I can forgive her, she is so innocent.

She is saying so many words these days.  She has such a cute way of saying her words too.  Did you know she refers to dogs as “dookie”?  That’s going to be an interesting one to break.  {smile}

Nathan is a pro at puzzles. He nearly complete this entire wooden puzzle all by himself.

He is also really good at destroying them too. He admired his work for all of 3 seconds, at most, and then dumped it over.

Breaking large chunks off here and there, and then breaking the remaining chunks into individual pieces and then starting from scratch.

Again, good thing he is cute and good thing I LOVE putting puzzles together.

And a Wednesday Photo Dump on Wednesday, with exactly an hour and a half to spare. Wahoo!  Goodnight friends.
