a. mcdonald's iced mochas. amazing! there are so many good things about this cold tasty drink. one, it's about 50% cheaper than Starbucks and in my opinion, just as good. two, since i have since boycotted Starbucks because they bought out my absolute most favorite coffee shop, diedrichs (back in california they had the most amazing shop right on the beach in laguna beach. it was my favorite place to go...) it's a good substitute for that. three, did i mention it's cheaper?
b. decision 2008. i love sarah palin. i had made the decision to not vote this year (even thought i have never voted yet, not even once, for any election) since there was not candidate that i even remotely liked since good ol' huck didn't win the ticket. but once mrs. palin entered, my mind has since changed. that mccain sure knew what he was doing to sway women voters. he changed my mind!
c. jeans. not only am i able to wear my prepregnancy ones, but i am also able to wear them now since it's cooler! woo hoo! i really do enjoy them, and i think the feeling of being able to zipper and button does add to the effect.
d. the weather. goes along with "c," in the fact that it's perfect jean weather. i mean the past two days here in michigan have been amazing. in the low seventies, bright blue skies and beautiful green earth due to the rain we got this past weekend. come on fall! i'm ready.
e. my napping son. the napping experiment '08 has been a complete success! 5 out of the past 5 naps have gone as follows: turn off the lights, put on the fan, put on "sweet baby james," nurse the mancub then set him in the crib. each time there is a little going to sleep noise (but no crying) and a subsequent nap for 30 mintues to 2 hours (like this morning, in which i watched the entirety of "baby mama" by myself). i'm so proud of my little man i cannot even explain. this will definitely come in handy for when i start school, which is tomorrow.
example of one napping position:
in case you can't tell, he's sitting up in the corner of his crib with his pillow over his legs. as he naps. i have no idea how he got there.
f. baby mama. love it. i haven't laughed so hard at a movie in a looong time. definitely in my top 10 list now. "i don't mean to sound dramatic when i say this but i'd rather shoot my face than eat this crap" -Angie Ostrowiski. probably one of my favorite lines from the movie. i've been waiting for this to come out on dvd and now that it has, i think ya'll should see it too, if you haven't!
and to end with for your viewing pleasure, more of the man in my life, james.
taking a rest...
getting into mischief
almost there...
got it!
swimming with daddy!
laughing with mommy!
and flirting with my girlfriend eva!
that's all! i can't believe he's seven months old now. closer to one year than birth. it is true, they grow up so fast!
