Feb 26

Posted by tata on Tuesday Feb 26, 2008 Under Kids and Family

It hit me really hard today that in less than 2 weeks, my son will be a year old. It’s physically painful. I realize that I still have a lot of life in front of me, but it smacked me upside the head that 30 years have got behind me, I’m married and have two children and my youngest is hitting his first big milestone. This time will never be recreated with other children. My baby is moving into toddlerhood.

Sigh.

I ordered his birthday crown and tee-shirt today.

I also talked to P about having a small get-together at her house for the celebration. I don’t plan on inviting many people, but enough to make it really crowded in our tiny apartment. She agreed, so his party will be at her house on Sunday March 9th at 2pm. Husband and I briefly discussed getting him a toy box for his birthday and maybe a bucket (’cause he loves dropping things into whatever he can reach - the clothes hamper, the garbage can, etc.).

We went up to P’s bank today and opened an account. I’m thrilled to be there, as I haven’t been very happy with our current bank for some time.

We ran a few errands today, as well. Nothing major. It was leftover night for dinner. The girl threw a major hissy fit since she loathes leftovers, but she eventually agreed to have some salad. Husband had barbeque pork sandwiches and I had ravioli. We decided on tomorrow nights dinner (pancakes) and I went over my menu list.

Oh yes, and I filled out my FAFSA. Who knows, maybe I’ll get approved for some financial aid and take a few courses in the Fall. That would be cool. I miss attending school.

Yesterday was pretty slow around here. Husband and I watched a couple of movies and played with the boy. He made an awesome meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy and corn on the cob for dinner. I took the fundraiser money up to the Joy’s school (forgot to send it with her).

Oh and sooo jealous when I saw you filled out your FAFSA! I went to college for 8 years (just to get a BA cuz I am a bone head and changed my major a million times) and I miss school like CRAZY!

What do you want to study? What do you want to do?

I love getting flowers too! My oldest daughter really loves them, and my middle girl does too, she took them one by one to her room until finally I had to give her a vase to put them in!

I know how you feel about birthdays, my oldest is 11 tomorrow! I have loved these last 11 years with her. And I’m 32, man, I don’t feel old, but I get a little bummed when I think of the 40s, and then 50s!
