I love seeing Henry doing something which gives him so much joy and confidence.

We just had a three day weekend, and it seems I got a little too relaxed. See if you can figure out which two boys had to wear their little brother’s PJs to bed last night. Whoops.

Doing laundry on a regular basis is overrated.

I think in fact that there are 3 weeks of every month when women are pumped full of hormones which mask just how completely irritating other people are.

I’m over at PunditMom‘s today junking up her cogent political discourse with my goofball claptrap.

But it’s just as well since I don’t have two brain cells to rub together. I just got back from taking Charlie to another laser eye procedure, and while it went well and the doctor thinks it will help his vision, it was long and moderately stressful and I’m beat. And prone to run-on sentences.

We’ve got an amazing sitter who comes every Saturday night from 6-11pm. He’s a great guy who has been a preschool teacher for decades, and each of our kids was in his class when they were about 2. It is a huge extravagance, but it is worth it for us to be able to walk out the door, not worry for one second about our kids, and spend time together as grownups.

I thought you might enjoy seeing what a typical night out is like for us. It contains food, drinks, a movie, grocery shopping, a little TMI, politics and more! I know, sounds great right? :)

The only part of the evening I had to leave out was the restaurant we went to right before going home — the battery died as we walked in the door! The rest is there in it’s “glory” — I’ll let you be the judge.
