Ten on Tuesday (26/365)

  • Matt and I are watching, what I expect to be, the terrible movie that is G.I. Joe . It somehow made it's way to the top of our Netflix queue, along with a bunch of junk by Jeff Dunham, and we didn't catch it before they sent it to us. We figured we should at least half watch it before sending it back.
  • All of our snow melted this weekend - we didn't even get a chance to enjoy the lack of snow before Mother Nature decided to send a bit more our way. Yeah, she's a bitch.
  • I'm making my own birthday cake this weekend. I've been DYING to try out this flourless chocolate cake recipe for ages and I've decided this is the perfect time to do it. If it's any good I will probably make it for Izzy's birthday too, along with another one that is less rich. So if you're going to be at Mom and Dad's house this weekend you'll get to have some leftovers. Sorry, Annie.
  • Speaking of birthdays, after years of attempting to pester Matt into telling me what he got me for my birthday, he finally gave in - I'm getting a Wii Fit Plus! Granted, he told me that the only reason he caved was because he didn't want me going out and buying one with out him knowing since we discussed using Christmas money to get one. I'm so excited!
  • Wedding planning is in the air - and I'm getting excited for summer and fall to come! I'm SO looking forward to Fred and Kathy's and Andy and Mary's weddings this year!
  • Izzy's mattress HAS to get lowered soon - she's well on her way to pulling herself up and the last thing we need is her falling out of the crib!
  • I can't believe I'll soon be planning Izzy's first birthday party! It's unreal how fast time goes with baby #2.
  • Which reminds me, Izzy's birthday is on a weekend this year, but her party won't be until the weekend after because we are going to be in Indianapolis. I'm meeting up with about 10 or 15 of my friends from an online community I've belonged to since I got pregnant with Alice (we were all due in the same month). It's a fantastic group of girls and I'm REALLY looking forward to the trip.
  • We (that means you too, Matt) will be walking in a Race for the Cure event while we are there in honor of those we know who have fought cancer, but especially for one of our own, Ellen, who was diagnosed with and underwent treatment for breast cancer while she was pregnant with her second little boy.
  • I just realized how ridiculously trained my fingers are for typing on an iPhone. I just double tapped the space bar on several occasions and wondered why my sentence didn't end up with a period at the end. Oh, iPhone, how I love thee.
