Well, apparently we do. Yes, we are the Miller's and we are button hoarders. We picked these up at a going out of business sale. They are now consolidated, organized, and should show up on etsy soon!We met up with our buddy, Matt, at our favorite Mexican restaurant for Mark's birthday. Yes, it was a little late, but it's been that kinda year. Thank goodness we have persistent friends. We have been terrible about making plans, and with Mark's schedule, it's hard to plan things more than a day in advanced. Thank you friends! Matt and Henry hit it off (again), and he is excited about his future basketball star. It was a great weekend for catching up with old friends. As for the time change, the longer sun light yeah! Messing with my kids schedule, boo.
We met up with our friends Ron, Ronelia, and their beautiful son Cassius for a long over due dinner. They recently bought an amazing 100+ year old home in Monrovia. Their house was insanely cool, and their taste was impeccable. So many great choices, I should've taken more pictures. It's so nice to get together with old friends, and watch our sons play. It's also nice to share war tales with a new mom. Oh, how our lives have changed!Sweet Cass!They played so well together!And their adorable pug, Ruffles, is always down for a new kid who loves to pass him food! Thanks guys for a great evening.
Time is catching up with me, and I am making up the week and half of plague. My computer is only making my job harder. Apparently, it's still holding a grudge. I've been working on invitations for my inlaw's 50th anniversary, my brother's wedding invites, and attempting to organize everything we have ever owned. In my attempt to organize my computer, I deleted the anniversary invitation! Errr, It has since been recreated, printed and mailed, but I lost a day. In the end,I'm pretty happy with them, and grateful that my printer was kind to me.
On to organizing the boxes of life. I found these. Those would be wedding thank you notes. I am an awful, terrible person who wrote thank yous and never mailed them. No excuse. So if you were at our wedding, thank you for your beautiful gift, and all your help. Perhaps, I should rewrite I'm sorry notes. Thankfully, there is a Yogurtland, in walking distance. Yogurt helps alleviate guilt.
My computer is angry with me. I have way too much stuff on it, and it is protesting. I had a 3 month old highly rated Lacie rugged hard drive go down a month ago, and have been stressing about backing up everything. I'm not sure how much I lost on that hard drive, but it's looking like I'm not getting it back. I took it on and they said it was a lost cause. Three months of pictures, and god knows what else. I am now happy all those facebookers push me to update photos. I at least have highlights of halloween, thanksgiving and Christmas.
So I had to take off a few gigs of 80 gigs pictures today on a computer that had 250mb of room. Not fun. It really fought me. I'm not going to go into tedious detail, but I'm glad it is done, and my stress is down.
Henry was cute and fun, which only adds to my space dilemma. Here's the highlights...
Finally, we have our true Henry back! I was afraid the easy going kid was gone forever. A sick toddler is like having a 28 pound, mommy centric newborn. I'm glad he has his independence back.
What I like about this app:
It's ease and portability
What I don't like:
It crops the right side off of pictures. No bueno
Henry is all boy when it comes to toys. Trains are the current obsession, as well as hot wheels, and pretty much anything mechanical. Batteries are fascinating. H is very big on getting new batteries for toys. He brought Mr. Potato Head to me the other day. He opened his back flap, and said "batteries!" I couldn't help but laugh. His other Toy Story-esk activity, is lining his trains next to each other and calling them "fwends". It started with Banjo and Gigi, and expanded to all inanimate objects. It never gets old.
