Are you missing us?

Sorry, but I've been in some sort of blogging slump lately. I started a post days ago but never got around to/avoided finishing it. We've had many significant events happen since my last post:

1. We discovered two new teeth in BB's mouth coming in through the top gums.
2. BB started to feed herself! Seeing this always gets me excited and proud.
3. BB walked 13 steps -- the width of the hallway!
4. I finally sent out (most of) our Thank You cards for the birthday party.

We went out to the city yesterday to visit Wayne, Leslie, and the twins (even though the temperature was BELOW zero). I was kind of bummed that we didn't make it to neither the aquarium nor the science museum, but we still had a good time out (with the emphasis on OUT, as in AWAY from home). Wayne's pomeranian Boo Boo was much friendlier with BB this time, and BB enjoyed being licked to death.

So I'm sure there are many things that need to be done, but I'm feeling so scatterbrained today. I'm going to need to sit down and write out a list. Ughhhh. I'm trying to finish a cashmerino hat for BB since she's outgrown her purple one. This one is a berry color. Hopefully, I'll get it done by the end of the week.

And, since I didn't finish writing about Valentine's Day (the content of my abandoned post), I'll put it in a nutshell. I went out in the blizzard to get some wine and dessert for the dinner I was making (steak and asparagus, which Dave loves), but the liquor store rejected my license because it expired on my birthday! Yes, I know my birthday was back in December and I need to renew it ASAP, but I felt like an underage college student all over again! Luckily, when I called Dave, he had already bought some wine! I swear, we share the same brain. Dinner was nice, dessert was tasty (I got chocolate berry tarts from Whole Foods), and we ended the night by watching Lost in bed. The red tulips I got are pictured above, the dessert below. In a nutshell, a good night!

I'm a sucker.

I went to Whole Foods with BB because we had absolutely no food here at home. They had this cheese on display for samples. I'm usually not really a fan of cheddar, but I like this one because it's not very sharp. It's called "Mammoth" cheddar cheese. Eating what's in the picture right now. It's tasty. I'm a sucker. They got me.

As you can see from the picture, I only got a few rays of sunlight. The sun is only just trying to peek out now. I feel like I haven't seen it in days. And what is with this mild weather? If the sun had been out the past couple days, anyone could have mistaken the season for late Spring, early Summer.

General Hospital is on. I try to watch it every once and awhile when I have time. If soaps are even worth watching, General Hospital is the only one. I came across Passions while channel surfing and Theresa is still pining over Ethan who is still with Gwen who is friends with Sheridan who is still in love with Luis who is in love with a girl named Fancy. Fancy?! And the storyline with Tabitha the witch and her talking doll Timmy was just ridiculous as well. I'm surprised this soap has lasted so long. Gotta love General Hospital, though. Luke and Laura are back together again! She woke up from her4-year state of mental vegetation!

I trekked over to The Fabric Place to see what prints they had. It looks like I'll have to order online to get the fabric I really want. I did find these, though, which I thought were pretty cute. The woman who cut my fabric made a comment about BB, saying it looks like I "must starve the child." Uh...? I told her everyone thinks she's chub, but I didn't say anything more. She was elderly and I'm sure she didn't mean it in a bad way. I think she needs to get her eyes checked, though. Anyone can spot BB's cheeks from a mile away.

So I went to Target this morning to pick up some diapers and formula. Can you believe Behnaz Sarafpour created a line for them?? It's quite cute and sweet, except I'm not so sure cute and sweet is my style. I did get a dotted cami and chocolate wrap sweather for $30 total, though. AND I found these cute little pink snowflake bowls for BB in the $1 section. I looooooooove Target.
