Run of the mill...

We have had a semi-busy day. The boy had to see the pediatric ophthalmologist today. Thank goodness no surgery, but we will be upping the patching time from 2 hours to 5 hours. We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful doctor with such specialized skills. So if you see our little pirate running around, just know he's making that weak eye stronger everyday. After being so patient at the doctor, he got a treat...a haircut. I know, that's weird, but he was ecstatic. Our beloved barber was flattered but did say that the boy needs to get a life, which is true. He also got a sammich at Panera, so that helped out. While we were waiting for the hub to get his hair chopped, the boy wanted to give me directions on how to draw a "portrait" of him and "put it on the blog". So here you go:



Again, not an artist but this is the best I could do in the 30 seconds he gave me. And, yes, that is a Gymboree shirt for those moms who know that stuff....I'm not an expert. It was on clearance for $1.88. And no he did not have white pants on. He did take the iPad and walk over to another customer waiting on his cut and show him how to play Paper Toss. Never met a stranger.

Tonight we had what we should have called "Polar Opposite Movies" night. G's class finished reading the book, so we watched "Mr. Popper's Penguins", which was terribly cute. Jim Carrey can be annoying, but he was good in this one. After the kids were safely tucked in bed and sound insulated upstairs, we watched "Bridesmaids". Melissa McCarthy deserves every bit of that Oscar nomination. A bit on the wrong side, but oh so hilarious. I recommend it, but don't judge me...any more than you already do.

Have a good evening. Going to bed so we can be ready to help with a diorama project. We assist with implements of sharpness and high temperature. I know. We're crazy exciting.
