Polka Dotted Cups

Yes, "polka dotted" is a verb.

I attempted to use ribbon around the cups, but it didn’t work out so I used kraft paper polka dots on pink cups. Perfect for a cowgirl party.

Got a Free Car Seat Inspection

I probably should have done this before Max was born, but I didn’t. Carseats are incredibly easy to pop in and out of backseats these days, and I had absolute confidence in my husband’s ability to do it.

CHP was in the parking lot of Target giving free inspections so I couldn’t pass it up this morning.

I learned that even though you have those little latches doesn’t mean you should always use them. Apparently, we can use the ones on the side seats but not the middle seat. Who knew? Anyway, let’s just say, that carseat is not going anywhere now…

Threw Out My Back

So this is what getting older feels like.

Ok, so maybe I didn’t “throw out” my back, but I definitely did some damage. Lifting Max up and into his play yard, I felt a definite pull/tear/twinge/burning pain. It took my breath away. This is going to last a while.

Made a Terrible Dinner

And lived through it.

Even as dinner was cooking, my husband and I debated going to get dinner. Why? Because we were too tired to make the accompanying salad. Geez. However, remembering that I want a house more than a dinner out, I made the salad.

Funny thing was that dinner was less than tasty. And I’m still happy that we ate it anyway.
