Crap, I need to finish the birth announcement. Just need to adjust the margins, get a reprint, and then order online.
Anyway, there really is a God. After the horrendous-ness of yesterday that will not be mentioned again, today's been pretty good, actually. Still some screaming, but it was all directed at dh while I took a shower when he came home for lunch.
Went to a friends house so ds1 could play with her toddler, and it went really well. They have a Little Tykes-type plastic play thing that has a small slide on it, and we put a little pool at the bottom of the slide. Stuck the hose on the slide for a little while to get some water in the pool, and the kids had a blast. Ds1 wouldn't put on a swim diaper, but I didn't want him to be wearing a 3-pound diaper after playing in the pool for a few minutes. So he went naked. The little girl did wear a swim diaper, but that was it. I almost felt bad for the two gals (they were just tanning) a few backyards away from us because of all the shrieks of happiness. I wish I'd had my camera. And am I a bad mom for letting ds run around naked? You know, as long as he doesn't pee on my leg (or anywhere on me, I suppose), I'm really quite fine. Ds2 slept through most of our visit, only waking up to nurse. Twice. So he hung out in the mei tai for a bit so little hands and feet wouldn't attack him. I need to wait a few months until he can defend himself before I can leaave him on the floor.
So, halfway home ds1 falls asleep. So asleep that he didn't even blink when I pulled him out of the carseat, then stripped him and changed his diaper on the changing table, or when I put him in bed. Ds2 of course fell asleep on the ride home too.
I've also got dinner mostly thawed, and am hoping I can put dh to work in the garden tonight so we can move the strawberries and plant the tomatoes that are running out of room in their current homes (plastic cups).
