Rain is good.

I know, I'm getting a little tired of the rain. It feels like March or April, not July! This is when we're supposed to be getting sunburnt and uncomfortable at night. Actually, I don't mind the rain. Don't hate me!! But it's nice to not be too hot especially when I'm at home most of the time with no air conditioning.

This is a busy week coming up... Our anniversary is on Wednesday. I dropped a few hints to Nate on what I would like to do, but I think he wants us to plan something together. I still need to ask someone to watch Jericho, or else we will have to take him with us. My mom was supposed to arrive home from Chicago late last night, but I still haven't heard from her as she got stuck there. I talked to my dad last night and he wasn't sure when to expect her. As soon as she gets back.. I'll ask her about the trip - then ask her to babysit on Wednesday. You may think that's a little cruel and that I only use her as a babysitter, but if you think that, you don't know my mom. She LOVES babysitting my kid. She gets upset when we come to take him home... So I think it's okay. Anyways, Thursday night we're trying to get some friends together for Nate's bday, but I haven't even started planning that. It's just supposed to be a casual BBQ, but I guess the rain won't really help that. Then, the next morning we want to leave for Penticton to see some friends for dinner Friday night then head to K-town to see some more friends. Should be good.

We've only done a few long car trips with Jericho, but he's usually okay. The only issue may be his teething. He has two teeth on the bottom now and is a little more cranky nowadays. Last Saturday I walked into the nursery to pick him up and for the first time, he was SCREAMING. It's a combination I think of teething and playing strange. Today he was playing and instead of ignoring me for most of the time and just being - he kept dropping stuff and coming to sit on my lap. He would sit for 15 seconds, then squirm off and he was good for another 5 minutes. It was a little strange.

Funny story - my mother in law emailed me to let me know she didn't have many pictures of Jericho and could I please send some over the web to the Wal-mart in her hometown. I told her I would email her first if I figured it out... but I didn't. I just sat down and uploaded about 4 dozen onto the Wal-mart site. I guess she had been to the store and tried to upload some from a disk and it wouldn't work, then they called her 2 hours later to let her know her prints were ready. She was kinda mad and couldn't figure out how they got prints off her disk when it wouldn't work, and wasn't looking forward to having to pay money for something she wasn't sure she wanted. So the guy brings out the pictures I uploaded and she was pleasantly surprised. I tried to send a bunch of ones from when he was really tiny and some from now...so hopefully she's really happy with them. I just think technology is awesome.

Well, the little sweet boy is sleeping, I should see if I could get supper started for once...
