Awkward and Awesome Thursday

4.25.2013

Awkward:
- spotting a friend load her groceries into her car as you pull into the store parking lot and slowing down as you drive by to give her a friendly honk-honk and a wave, except your honk gives your friend a near heart-attack and makes her almost drop her groceries and then hold her chest as she takes deep breaths. So sorry, friend!
- making the HUGE mistake of mentioning the very routine "sac check" that will be happening at your 10-year-old son's upcoming well-child doctor visit and sending him into a full blown panic attack including tears, an upset stomach, and trouble sleeping at night. Rookie mom move, sigh.
- Our penchant for starting major house projects on a whim. Yesterday morning the outside of our house was intact. Today we have no siding or walls on our front porch.

Awesome:
- our plans for a new front porch and wrap-around deck! Please Jesus, help us finish this one quickly!
- finding white chocolate Lindor truffles in the bulk candy bins at Winco. Because they should definitely be bought in bulk ;)
- Blake's brand new baby lamb, born this morning. How cool is this coloring?!
Blake has very appropriately named her Oreo :)
- this guy getting his cast off!
 It called for a celebratory 7-layer-bar treat from a nearby cafe. For me :) Cooper picked peanut butter cookies.
- beautiful, sunny, mid-seventies weather all week long. Helloooo picnic in the park with friends!
- TWO date nights planned for the weekend: a movie date to see Oblivion Friday night and then a no-kids birthday party for our friend's 40th on Saturday. C'mon, weekend!!

  2. Double date night weekend! WOO HOO!! :) Have fun!

    And I love the treat. For you. :) I'm so glad I'm not the only one who gets a treat for myself, along with my kids, whenever some major milestone is achieved. Ok, so the cast thing was totally legit for you guys. And a big deal!! It may be possible that we all got frozen drinks at Target yesterday after my 5 year old picked finally picked out a gift for the birthday party he's going to tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I just look for reasons to increase my sugar intake...

    The lamb is ADORABLE!! Love the name Oreo, too. :)

    This is the end of this now ridiculously long comment...
