How strange it is to be anything at all.
Dudes, we are getting stuff done.
On Saturday, we got cell phones (prepare yo’ selves for seeing more hipstamatic junk, because mama got a new iPhone.)
On Sunday, we bought a car. A brand new Ford Escape Hybrid. Very exciting, because I have never had a new car, and neither has Andrew. I got Rosie a new car seat, too. A Britax Boulevard 70. I did a lot if research, but in the end, we decided we’d pay whatever for maximum safety. The cars in the US are scarily huge, and I shudder to think about getting t-boned by some of these mammoths with my baby in the car. Now, we are just excitedly waiting for car to be in and car seat to arrive from Amazon!
Yesterday, we got approved for a home mortgage. We’re now actively house shopping! Ee! And then we came home and mailed off our 2009 amended tax return and 2010 tax return. Phew. Checking things off!
Rosie us super jetlgged. She keeps attempting to go to bed at 4:30, and her afternoon nap is shockingly long.
We took her early waking this morning as an opportunity to go to the DOL to get Andrew’s expired license renewed. So there’s my girl (and her blue spatula) cruising around the maze of chairs while we try to check off more to-dos.
One great thing has been grandma babysitting. We were able to car shop without the help of our tot. And, we might even get to go to movie. Moving back home, FTW!!
