October 19-23

Monday: I was still feeling sick. Really sick. I spent the day napping when the baby napped and just trying to get through the day. Jason got ready to cheer on the Phillies that night.
As I said, I was dragging, so I let Tyler have a "party" night and we ate pizza and watched Halloween movies. In perfect timing we got a knock on the door. My dad answered to find we had been "ghosted". Tyler was sooooo excited. We later found it was his friend Mackenzie, which made him all the more happier.

Tuesday: After school we went up to the mall to pick up our pictures from Sears. Of course we also got some Auntie Anne's pretzels. Then it was off to chick-fil-a for kids night, as usual.

Wednesday: The kids were all geared up for the big Phillies game, and looking so cute, if I do say myself. After school we had a little playdate at the playground and walked home with Mackenzie. Have I ever mentioned that Mackenzie says that she and Tyler are going to get married. She tells her parents how they will go on dates and fall in love and all. Tyler, being a typical boy, is not in on this plan. However, they did have their first "car date" in teh front yard. According to Mackenzie they were off to Mexico.


That night we learned that it was a free evening at The Franklin Institute, sponsored by Target. We had been wanting to go, but it can be quite costly, so we took full advantage of this program. We got there at arrival time (5:00) and Tyler was so excited by the Halloween goody bags and treats (we learned that Jason liked the one treat, a pomegranate fruit bar). We had a nice time, but it was crowded, as expected. I get the distinct impression that some city school just bussed over about 500 young children, supervised by perhaps 2 adults. Regardless Tyler had fun, especially with the gigantic heart and the observatory. I'm glad we went, but also very glad we didn't pay a ton of money to go. Free is good.




Oh, and the Phils kicked some butt. Tyler was so excited he had been in Philadelphia (for the museum) and kept telling everyone, who of course though that Tyler had been at the game. LOL.

Thursday: After school Tyler had his next cavity appointment. This was for the worst of the 4 cavities, that essentially needed a child root canal. Again, thank goodness for the laughing gas. I don't think he was even aware that he got a shot of novacaine, and was totally at ease. The biggest issue with the appointment was making him keep the cotton in his mouth afterwards so that he wouldn't bite up his cheek and tongue and all while he was still numb.

That night we finally got around to "ghosting" the 2 people we needed to ghost. Tyler picked "Ms. Pat" across the street and "Asia" next door. Asia would be the dog next door. LOL.

Friday: Ummm, I have no clue. I really need to get better about the blogging. I do know that I realized for sure that Jason had created his own way of requesting to breastfeed. I really thought I'd be done nursing before my baby could crawl/walk over, lift up my shirt, and frantically sign for more. The little stinker. Speaking of Jason, still not talking, AT ALL (although he says somethign that sounds like "flower", but refers to anything). He also has no need to walk. Although he can, he chooses not to.
