Yesterday....

Yesterday was a good day for so many reasons. The first being that our 5 year old alarm clock that is usually up with the birds, slept until 9:15 (and we had to WAKE her). Of course everyone else was already up as I had a doctor appointment and Jonathan had to go to work. So I got to take both kids with me to see my doctor. They were great. (And everyone knows that I would admit to otherwise if it were the truth.) Jude did drop his drawers once when the sudden urge to pee pee hit him but most of you know how Jude is and it bothered no one - people laughed but it was mostly nurses anyway and I figure they have seen it all before. We were waiting in the back before my doctor came in and he announced he needed to poo poo (Jude - my dr. is female)so I had to leave Ella sitting in there and run him to the bathroom. He decided no, just pee pee again and we headed back in. Dr. Crowe was right behind us and followed us in the room to hear the heartbeat. Jude wanted to sit in my lap as this was being done and of course could not resist the urge to stick his hands in the jelly that they put on there. We then hit the Mellow Mushroom - one of my favorite eating establishments. And yes, there was a big drink spill and food on the floor but overall we had a great time. The conversation of my two favorite little people keeps me laughing and on my toes. One thing I could not figure out how to explain was "What is a nun?" and she really did mean a nun...She saw one and the hospital and as she did pass for just "an old lady", I told her she was a nun. Anyway, after lunch we took Daddy lunch and Jude took a 3.5 hour nap while Ella and I enjoyed the great outdoors. Jude did get a couple hours of outdoor time in after nap. We then picked up Jonathan and spent the evening with the Rose family. Jude and I jumped and rolled on the trampoline for a while and then the adults enjoyed the ballgame while the kids went to bed. We didn't get home until really late but it was a great day.
