30

today is my birthday. i am 30. no longer in my 20's, but not really in my 30's yet. i took the day off from work. reading riverfest is today/tonight, and the tartan terrors are going to be playing tonight. www.tartanterrors.com i love them!! they play at the pa renaissance faire on saturdays and sundays, and they always try to find a gig on friday nights in the area. check them out, they are awesome!! amelia loves listening to them in the car!
my husband got me the best birthday present/anniversary present (a little early).....we're going to disneyworld next november for our 5th wedding anniversary! we're going the same week that we went when we went on our honeymoon!! i'm so excited!!! oh, and i got to sleep in today, until 8am!! woohoo and happy birthday to me!!

new relief for headaches

this is how my darling husband is now going to relieve his headaches. start with an icepack, put on the bumbo seat, and there you have it! he's just a little silly :)

amelia and cora

here are amelia and cora at the mall on tuesday, 9/2/08. this was their "playdate" as amy and i had met for lunch. they are just two of the cutest little girls i have ever seen :) they have their own little language and everything! i think amy and i are both going to enjoy having them grow up together. and, don't forget all the fun times that they'll have antogonizing will :)

this week

well, so far so good this week....BUT today was amelia's first day with daddy. my office was closed on monday, and i had off on tuesday, so today was daddy and amelia's first day back to work together, and it went okay. tante erika was there mid-morning. in the afternoon karl decided it was too hot to work, and they were dead at the shop, so he closed, and him and amelia came to visit me at work. he has her again tomorrow at work, and then i took off on friday, just because, so she will be with me again all day :)
next week will probably be the true test, because i work all week, and wednesday is my late night, until 7pm! although, granny is going to take her friday 9/12 until until sunday 9/14. she'll probably pick her up in the early evening or we'll drop her off!! love those granny weekends!
this weekend we are going to delaware to visit friends and go to the delaware german dance group's anniversary dance. wish us luck, this will be our first long car ride with amelia....i know, i know, there are those of you out there that have done longer trips, but this is our first one, that is over an hour. hopefully she does okay, and maybe she'll just sleep ;) if i don't post again this week, have a great weekend everyone!!

mall playdate

well, we just got home from the mall and our playdate with cora and aunt amy! we met them for lunch and did some shopping for will!! yes, will has arrived, and we bought him the cutest outfit ever!! i think aunt katie and will are going home for the hospital tomorrow, so we'll put it in the mail to them this week.
amelia and cora had a nice playdate at the mall. they slept, and then they were awake looking at each other. i'll post the picture from the playdate as soon as it's loaded onto the computer. amy and i had a nice lunch and were able to catch up. it's amazing that as soon as you become a parent, you don't really talk about too much else besides your child. i'm pretty sure that's what 90% of our conversation was about :) well, i guess that's all for now! it's time for amelia to eat and hopefully take her afternoon nap. hope everyone had a nice labor day weekend!!
