Cookies and Milk

Today I woke up and it was raining and it was dark.
Not because of the time but because of the cloud cover in the sky.
I worked.
Talked on the phone, some, work related and in between some not...
usually Jeremy but today included Tasha (YW Pres). And all a sudden it was 10:30am.
Xander needed Brunch because we missed breakfast. Peanut Butter and Jelly and purple grapes cut in 1/2.
Worked some more, facebook, on hold, facebook, what else do you look at while your on hold? oh yeah, I do read my blogs, CJane, Nie nie, and Breakfast at Tiffany's.

I hear Xander in the other room, watching T.V. He squirms his way out of his chair and stands up and turns his body so he can see me here in my room.
"All done"
He twists his hands and signs for "all done" one of the 4 signs he knows. I ask him repeatedly just so I can see his little hands do it again!
Xander heads to his room to play and I go back to work.
Take a break.
Take a peek.
Xander has brought random toys to the couch and is in his own little world with these toys.
Back to work.
Talk to Mercedes in Florida who laughs at my pronunciation of last names, and feeling frustrated at people that will not fill out forms correctly, which makes my job feel tedious.
Xander brings toys to my Apple and chucks them at the keyboard. His little face just reaches over the top of my bed. I hurry and send one more e-mail before taking a break.
Disney is on.
Tinkerbell.
I want a cookie.
Xander wants a cookie.
I want Milk.
Xander wants Milk.
Xander and I snuggle on the Couch watching Tinkerbell and eating cookies. He learned at 9 months to rip the cookie in two and lick the filling. Kids are born this way. They just know! Still does it until all the filling is gone and hands me the cookie part.
Hannah Montana Video comes on and we get up and dance!
Change laundry.
Decide that I should probably bath Xander and get him ready for the day.
It is 2:00pm.
Give Xander a shower.
Have been doing it all week.
This time just him.
What a little dude to be in such a big shower, but he loves it.
Lotion
Diaper
Brown pants and Sham Rocker T-shirt. I didn't get it when I bought it, had to ask Jeremy. Sham Rocker????
"Shamrock, Nichole" "Sham Rocker"
"Ohhh"
It is green.
And today was Earth Day.
It was not planned.
It was planned when he wore it on St. Patrick's Day.
My little Sham Rocker!
Tried to put him down for a nap.
He cried on and off for an hour.
Still managed to do some Spanish.
This is the last Spanish class.
Jeremy is on his own now after this.
I have helped him with all the classes I can.
He has only hard ones left.
Chemistry
Physics
and Calculus II and III
and then all those Engineering ones!
Go Jeremy!

Got Xander out of bed.
Wrote a cute poem on Facebook
It's raining it's pouring
(because it was)
Xander is not doing any snoring
(because he didn't)
Went to bed, very well fed.
(Cookies and Milk)
And would not take a nap this Morning
(it was really afternoon but that did not rhyme)
Now he is grumpy
(he was)
And full of spite
(not really)
Looks like he is going to bed early tonight
(Went to bed at nine)

But it was a cute poem.
Went to Walmart.
Bought stuff to make GORP
Camp fundraiser tomorrow
We are watching kids at the church.
30 to be exact.
CRAZY!

Jeremy on Couch watching Super Natural.
Me typing this day.
Because one day I am going to look back and read this over and over and wish that I could be at this young 30's baby at home stage again.

Hello 80 year old Nichole! Hope your still just as cute!
