07.05.02 Happy Birthday to Henry! Happy
Friday! Most of you had today off...lucky dawgs! Aric thought he had
today off, but found out late Wednesday that he had to work today. He
was sorely disappointed. We had made plans to shop for laminate flooring,
new carpet, and other things for the house. We're on a home improvement
kick. Actually it's been long overdue. We talked about it last year...saying
wanted to do this-n-that before the baby was born...but obviously ended
up procrastinating. =P Now that Ashlyn is starting to get around on
her own (and getting into everything), we want to get new carpet and
start baby-proofing the house.
Ashlyn and I got to Aric's work around noon. A lot of people at the company took the day off, and the ones that were there griped about being there. hehehe Aric, Ashlyn, and I ate outdoors on the bridge. It was such a warm clear day. Afterwards, we stood around talking with some of Aric's coworkers (as they took turns holding the baby). Aric finished up some stuff then decided to leave work early. I was estatic! We went to Costco and picked up laminate flooring for our downstair's office and a corner TV stand for our bedroom. Then we headed to Staples and Office Max for a new desk for the office. We had a hard time finding one we liked...and when we finally did, they didn't have it in stock. *poo!* We
got home around 4pm, fed the baby, and relaxed. The weather's been so
damn hot these days. Lately the heat gives me headaches....dunno why.
=T We spent the evening at home, eating and watching TV. Halfway through
watching "Behind Enemy Lines", Ed called and Aric had to go
help him do something. I ended up playing with Ashlyn and watching "20/20".
They had a really informative segment on whiney children. In case Ashlyn
turns out to be one of those. hehehe I
finally had some quiet time to myself. Picked up around the kitchen
and living room, then checked email, surfed the net, and downloaded
pictures. Aric got home after midnight. I'm debating whether or not
I should finish watching "Behind Enemy Lines" on DVD. Hmmmm?
