Squish has been making it incredibly difficult for me to sleep lately. I started looking on Craigslist for a "Snoogle" pillow, which retails for about $60 - yikes! I found one for $40, and offered the person $20 for it. I was pretty surprised when the reply email came from someone I worked with last year, who had a baby over the summer! Now Addy and I get sleep all wrapped up with pillow!
Eric took me car shopping a few weekends ago, and I was pretty amused by this mirror.
On Veteran's Day, Old Chicago gave everyone $5 of Foamer bucks on our World Beer Tour cards, so we asked Paul and Deb to come to dinner with us. Along with that, they had a cardboard standup that you scan with your phone and it gives you a chance to win free food or drink. Deb, Eric, and I all won something - I got cheesy garlic breadsticks, Deb got a big cookie, and Eric won a large pizza! We could only use one, so we treated everyone to a Thai Pie pizza. Nine beers, a pizza, and a fries basket ended up only costing us $14 - and (quite possibly for the first time ever) they let us pay for dinner!
Brian and Jen hosted a Crock Pot Pot Luck party last weekend. There were many interesting conversations, lots of great music, occasional dancing, and drunk people everywhere! These parties are a lot more fun when I'm sober watching everyone else get silly!
While we were at Mom and Alan's house last weekend, Chaos decided that the snickerdoodle cookies belong to him!
Addy has been an extra large bum lately, cue "awwwwww" sound bit.
I just about died laughing in the grocery store when I picked out the avocado for this weeks "Baby Green" picture, and then put it in the baby seat of the cart. Seriously, I was beside myself.
This is the countdown that I keep posted at work! I accidentally mixed up weeks 16 and 17 (avocado and onion), but seeing as the foods relate to the length of baby, I think it makes sense that an avocado would come after the onion instead of before. Oh well, I'm probably the only one who noticed my error :)
Last night, I decided that I wanted to have cinnamon rolls for dinner. As the oven heats up, Eric decides he is craving pizza...so we made both! This is what dinner looks like in the Green household!
Finally, a funny school story! A few weeks ago, one of our paras was working in a third grade classroom. The kids were told to cut out pictures of facial expressions and then to write about it in their journal. The para noticed a kid cutting frantically, stuffing something in his desk, and then looking around the room suspiciously. She asked him to give it to her and he tried to play dumb and give her the scissors, as she gave him "the look" he pulled the picture out of his desk and handed this gem to her. Hilarious!
