Just for the sake of simplicity, Kelly and I have both gone on separate outings this week, by ourselves. They were both kind of last minute things, we both needed some “me” time at different times, and someone has to stay home with the kid. 
So, Wednesday night I went up to QC to do a little reading at Starbucks. Just me and a book and a vanilla latte. Yum.
Tonight Kelly went to Iowa City. He first got a load of wings and took them to the U of I Hospital to share with some friends who has someone close to them there (we’re praying for you, Jessie!). He was then going to go to the new James Bond movie.
Harrison and I had a fun evening together. He is really starting to say quite a bit more, and I have to really pay attention. He will repeat something several times and then I will usually get it. And today, for the first time, he sang the alphabet song with me. He didn’t say all the letters, of course, but he had the tune down pat, and he would get some of them right. In between the right ones, he would just repeat the vowels over and over again.
He is just so stinking cute, I can’t stand it sometimes. Believe me, we have our moments. And lately, we have been having more. And I blow it. And I need frequent breaks. But I love him so much, and am so proud to be his mommy. I find it such an honor to be able to stay home. I really can’t imagine doing anything differently right now.
That’s it for now. Night.
