Languishing in the Day

I have just 20 minutes to write this because at 12:30 mom will be here to pick up Kendall and me for the dinner theater. We're going to see Grease. I've been forwarned that there are sexual references and *gasp* curse words. I hope Kendall makes it out alive.
I'm really glad to be getting out today because for the past 2 days Max has been crying. He's either teething or got rabid. He's been drooling like a mofo and hasn't slept much since Thursday night. This means that Dan and I also haven't slept much. We're so fun to be around right now.

Last Sunday we had Max christened. He was perfectly beautiful. Our California family was there as well as nannie and papa and Terri and Kayla. The weather was great for our cookout afterwards at my folks' house. Tessie had such a fun time over the past week getting to know Brenna and I got to know my seestor-in-law which was very cool. We've got an almost world-famous rock band now so hopefully she'll be back so we can move farther than Chicago.

This past week my 10 hour workdays started. I was so wiped out from the partying/visiting/christening/rocking/going out at 9pm with Stacy to throw darts-ing and all of the rest of the things we've done, that I purposely planned a weekend without events except for the dinner theater. My plan would have worked, too, if it hadn't been for that pesky baby. I hope he gets over it soon.

Next weekend we're to Old Town Alexandria to hang out with Stacy n crew again. We're going to stay at a HOTEL and then on Saturday we're going to the crime and punishment museum. Booyah! I'm so stoked about that. Bonnie and Clyde's car is there!!!!!!!1111 The only thing that would make it more perfecter is if mom and dad took the babies for us. Oh well...we'll line them up for another day. This is our minimized version of a vacation since I used all of my vacation time on maternity leave. This is way fancier than the year after Tess was born when our vacation was a trip to the Ramada Inn a mile away because our water pipes broke. See why we're stoked?

Check me out. I still have 9 minutes to get ready for the theeeeahhtahhh. dahling.

Pretty boy

Max at 6 months. He bounces a lot, can navigate his body well enough to fall off of the bed, eats veggies and fruits from a jar, squeals, sleeps like 12 hours straight.

HA!

I love my job. Here's why: It's not because I got a promotion. It's because my big big boss took time out tonight after 8pm to send me this email.

Hi Krystal-

Moments ago, the School Board passed 7-0 your move from Analyst 1 to Analyst 2. Your pay increase in retroactive to May 1st. Now you can go shopping.

Take care.

-Bill
