Brrr... it sure has been cold! We've finally gotten out and about this week to enjoy the heat wave! :)
I enrolled Alex in parent-tot gymnastics last week. I thought it would be a good place for him to burn off some energy. He is a very busy boy. It seems like gymnastics just energized him. I guess we will se how next week goes. I don't expect he will learn any "moves", but he can run around on soft flooring, play in the foam pit or jump on the in floor tramp. He did get a few stamps for trying different stations.
We attempted a music group through the mom's club. It was pretty much a disaster. Alex is a little too social and gets ants in his pants if he has to be still for long. There was one mom there I wasn't impressed with. Oh well, we will find other activities.
Paul is heading to Minneapolis this weekend for the annual Mash Out competition. It's a beer thing. My mom will becoming down Friday to hang out with us while he is gone. He should be getting back Sunday.
Friday I have my annual bone marrow biopsy. YIPPEE! It's routine through the research group I'm participating in which pays for my medicine. We will just hang low that weekend which means no Super Bowl parties for us! :)
Alex has been a monkey lately. Paul forgot to lock the cabinet under the sink. He keeps his coffee grounds there to compost. I'm sure you can tell where this is headed....so I walked in to the kitchen one morning to find Alex and floor covered in coffee grounds. Of course, his pj's happend to be white! I quickly retrieved the vaccuum and when I rounded the corner Alex was bent over licking the grounds off the floor. The kid has an affinity for coffee for some odd reason. The next morning he got in to my makeup bag and decided to paint himself, his clothes and the floor with my cream bronzer. I guess he decided winter was making him look a little too pastey. :)
