too cool...

nora got some new "cool dudes' the other day (we can't find her old pair... sad.). she was sporting them on the way to church on sunday. we got there, and i reversed the order of drop off. usually it's nora then james. but, i wanted to be able to take nora potty, so i dropped off james first. nora was quite distraught. finally, she understood that james was just going first. then, she practically DRAGGED me to her room and kept saying "that's not it" about the wrong rooms. when we got to her sunday school room, she said "here it is!!!" she got so excited! i love that she is that excited about it!

today, i had a physical. changed my insurance, so it was with a new doctor. i figured i would pull out the big guns, since i had both kids. it didn't seem like that big of a deal to take them both, and i don't want to abuse friends who offer to watch them, or pay for a baby-sitter for something this simple. so, we all went. i pulled in to the doctor's office and felt like i got a look of horror!

never fear... those big guns. i brought along our dvd player! nora got to watch a WHOLE dvd (jungle book... which is affectionately known as "mowgli" since the word jungle is scary) in the amount of time it took to check-in, wait and wait, and then be seen. (yes, that's practically 90 minutes...) anyway, the kids were awesome! james took a great nap, and nora got sucked in to the dvd! (then i fed her apple chips and hop-hops... must have looked like the worst mom in the world)

her reward? trader joe's! she LOVES shopping there and HATES when we go anywhere else (could be that tj's offers treats when kids find the green monkey). poor thing doesn't understand that not all grocery stores have the green monkey!!

lastly... can i give a shout out to aunt lu. thanks for so faithfully reading my blog! i love you... and we are praying for you today. nora sends lots of kisses!!! she prayed for you before her nap!
