A Busy Day
It was an action-packed day of fun in the Kang household. Really - it was a good day, just very busy. First, Joe's parents came over to watch Julie while I went to an appointment. Only just as I was leaving, the appointment called to cancel. But Julie and her grandfather were already deeply engrossed in Playdough so I made up an errand - Sophie and I took a little trip to the yarn store - YAY!
When I came home, they were still doing Playdough. Thank goodness they're willing to do Playdough with her, because I hate the smell of the stuff - especially after it's been used, put away and brought back out - blech! Therefore, we don't get it out nearly as often as we should. The in-laws quickly packed up and left, we ate lunch, and then there was time for another fun activity...
Even though we are godless heathens, dyeing eggs is kind of fun. I feel bad because I was a little uptight about letting Julie do much of the actual dyeing. She doesn't quite fully understand the concept of "careful" and "gentle" and we came oh-so-close to ruining our clothes with the dye. As it is, we just have colored hands for the next day or two along with a dozen or so hardboiled eggs that I'll make into devilled eggs for the family dinner on Saturday night. Yum!
Then, we had Sophie's two-month checkup. Even though we're a week late on the measurements, she's still measuring much smaller than Julie did at this age. Since Julie was in the 100th percentile for everything, this is nothing to worry about. In fact, it totally makes sense since Julie takes after me (Big) and Sophie takes after Joe (not quite so big). Everything else about our little girl is perfectly normal and healthy.
When we got home, I even managed to squeeze in making roast chicken and veggies with mashed potatoes and gravy for dinner, and Joe came home a bit early and took Julie for a bike ride in the new trailer. Whew!
