Another Monday

Today has been a busy day! I got up bright (well..not so bright) and early and ran before Edgar left for work. It was an okay run...I felt good initially, but I'm fairly sure there was lead in my shoes. I just couldn't get going! I tried to pick up the pace on the second half, but succeeded only in making myself feel sick. I had to walk the last 2/10 of a mile...I KNOW! I only had .2 miles left, and I couldn't finish. Oh well...it was early... :)

I got ready for my day, got Eli up a little early, and we were out the door by 8-headed over to get an oil change. We got there and were informed there were at least 20 cars ahead of us, and it would be at least a 4 hour wait. SO, we decided to go back another day :) Apparently because of the holiday they were busy. We went to the Verizon store and got my phone all set up and came back home. I got some much neglected work done, and made about a billion phone calls. Seriously, I think I was on the phone all day. Some of them were fun calls, some of them were 'I gotta make this appointment' calls. I also went grocery shopping, which Eli always enjoys. I think it's because everyone that passes him by talks to him and makes him smile.

Eli was highly entertaining today. He was SO talkative today! Here's a little video of him talking to his puppets that Krista got for him. He loves those things! He likes it when they are on my hands, but he usually pulls them off so he can kiss on them :)

I decided today was the day to cut back to nursing only twice a day (been doing 3 times). It went really good. I don't think Eli even noticed. I did give him some whole milk with his snack when he got up, and didn't seem to mind it too much. He did his funny little 'blinking' thing, which he does whenever he's not sure of something, but drank about 2-3 ounces, so that was good. I gave it to him straight from the refrigerator in a sippy cup. He didn't mind it cold, I don't think, which is good...cuz I don't feel like warming up milk...

By the way, I didn't win the lens. So sad :( Oh well...I guess I should buy a camera first :) I probably should get some work done...I told my students I would have their grades posted 4 days ago...oops...
