The Gofer's got to go. I suprised him this afternoon when i was out cutting some fresh basil. He flipped out and back into his hole quicker than I could react. Finally I have concrete evidence and know where his hole is.
William decided to put on my Valentine heart socks before going to the library. His redeeming grace were the blue spider man crocs he slipped on over his knee highs. We had all intentions of taking them off before dad returned however we were too late. Dad teases relentlessly. William let his Daddy remove them when I got in trouble if i even suggesting the idea.William got several new books at the library. His favorite two are: "there's a nighmare in my closet" and "the wolf is coming the wolf is coming". We've read both of them over twelve times in the past two days. He has little of no interest in the remaining library books.
Monday night i decided that Mark and EJ have a rythmic "breathing" pattern when they sleep. Mark complains that EJ's too loud when he sleep because he's little nose is a bit stuffed up. I choose to sleep with my head at the bottom of the bed for this reason. Mark refuses to believe that he snores so we call it heavy breathing during his sleep.
Yesterday I spent what seemed like a while vacuming out the pool. Luckily Jesse, my neices and nephes, Colleen, William, and I got to enjoy it before the canyon winds blew all the leaves and debry into the clear blue water. William enjoys telling me to "go under deep". He proceeds to walk on my face before i can come up for air. It's a blast. For him that is. It's amazing what we parents will do to keep the kids entertained. Becca my neighbor held EJ during our little swim.
Been using my garden veggies. Made a small batch of salsa, and a thai red curry chicken dish for the family reunion dinner saturday night. Tonight i plan on making a pepper jelly with the serrano peppers Stephanie Ivie dropped off.
Finished Stephanie Meyer's second book "New Moon". It was better than "Twilight". I suspect the third one "Eclipse" will be the best one yet. They have been hard to put down. My rule of sticking to books less than 300 pages has been altered.
EJ is still receiving gifts. Last week Kim Lilbok gave us a blanket and two burp clothes that her mom crochett. This week Rob dropped off a blanket my dad dropped off from my Aunt Marylou. We're so grateful for everyone that has been sharing the excitement of EJ's arrival.
