yesterday micah was climbing on her play kitchen. i asked her to get down a couple of times, then went over and picked her up. i said, "gosh, i really need to take you to the park, because you must really need to climb right now!"
just now, after asking if we could play outside and being told no, she climbed onto her kitchen again. i asked her to please get down. she hopped down, put her hands on her hips, and said, "you must need to take me to the park right now, because i need to climb!" she outsmarts me a dozen times a day. i wonder what it'll be like when she's 16...
this morning we went to the wedding of two of josh's best friends from high school. monday morning is an odd time to get married, but december 8th is their dating anniversary, and they had to be on a plane to mexico by 4 pm. the ceremony took place outside in a grove of trees. the weather was really mild. i was happy it turned out so well for them! the reception food was yummy bbq brisket sandwiches, baked beans and potato salad, with sweet tea to drink. in lieu of a wedding cake, they served apple pie with vanilla bean ice cream! it was so relaxed and fun.
after leaving the wedding, which was out in lucas, we drove to plano to see josh's mom. it was a really good visit. sometimes visiting her at the nursing home is really stressful with the kids, because they're into everything, and it's not that clean there. plus, i have seen syringes and mystery pills lying on the floor... ugh. but today i kept rowan in the mei tai, and micah was content to sit on her grandma's roommate's bed and eat chocolates. not great for her tummy, but great for my sanity.
after that, we drove back north to mckinney to my sister-in-law's house to pick up an outfit my other sister-in-law had bought for micah (cuuuuuute), then we went home. josh fixed some yummy garlic chicken with sour cream & chive mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner, and right now it is ten till 9:00 pm and i'm trying to get micah to go to sleep. rowan and josh are already in bed snoring.
