Yesterday
Work was eventful. As Ashlynn and I were closing the store last night a cop pulled into the parking lot. She joked with me that the cop was there to talk to me. Well, she walks back outside to bring in the strollers and the cop DOES walk up to her asking if everything is okay inside. He came in explaining that one of our customers had called saying that a guy with a gun had tried to rob her in the parking lot. We were baffled, we had seen nothing and heard nothing. There were three cops sitting in our parking lot trying to figure things out. We got back to closing and when I left, they even had the back road blocked off at both ends. WEIRD! Anthony insists I need to start carrying mace. Can you imagine if that guy had come INTO our store instead of trying to rob the lady in the parking lot?
On another note, Anthony had his first basketball game last night. He is playing basketball through church. While basketball is very obviously not his sport, he enjoys the exercise and is the fastest guy on the team. He has decided it can't hurt to shoot more often whether he makes it or not. You certainly can't make it if you don't shoot! Aidan enjoyed the first 5 minutes of the game, after that, he was cranky having to sit in my lap for near an hour. I think next week we'll only stay for the first half of the game.

Are you serious?
So, since Aidan has been born, Anthony has been up with him, maybe 3 times. No big deal. However, he wakes me up last night at 2 am to ask how many ounces he needs to put in the bottle. I was shocked, not only had I not heard Aidan but Anthony did! So, I laid in bed awake waiting for Anthony to get back. He gets back in bed and I mentioned that I didn't even hear Aidan, I must have been sleeping hard. He tells me that he was watching TV in bed and heard Aidan. He then turned the TV off and pretended to be asleep!!!! When he realized I wasn't waking up he got up. ARE YOU SERIOUS!?!? Well, I guess at least he can admit it!

Ten on Tuesday
So, I am going to give this a shot. I know a couple of people who do this as well. We'll see how long I keep it up. I might also try wordless Wednesday just to get myself blogging a little more.
1. Aidan has become quite the fit thrower. He throws them at nap time, he throws them when I walk away to get his bottle, when I suck out his nose and I'm sure there are other times. He has certainly learned how to turn on the tears!
2. Anthony has had 4 days off in three weeks. He has been working so hard moving snow! It's sad that the winter is his time with Aidan and he doesn't get to see him much with a work-at-night, sleep-during-the-day schedule.
3. With Anthony working, we have enough saved up to put down half of a new car, well, new to me!
4. I have not worked since the week before Christmas and I am dreading going back tomorrow. I got used to being home with my boys!
5. While I may have been stuck in the house for nearly three weeks (most of the time), my house is a disaster! Something about being indoors just zaps my energy to get anything done.
6. I found a fantastic present for my Dad's birthday Next week! YAY!
7. I am so close to getting rid of our kitten. He drives me nuts! He is the highest energy kitten I have EVER had! At the moment, he crawled under the couch to retrieve some bead garland from our Christmas decorations and is dragging it around the house like a puppy!
8. Grocery shopping is much needed in my house, so I am going out today. Wish me luck, I hope the store isn't as busy today as it was this weekend! I mean really, the snow has been around for three weeks, how long do they need to keep the Wal-Marts in Spokane closed?
9. We are starting our "healthy eating" kick this week. I hope it sticks. I am terrible about starting something like this and not following through. I really hope to drop some weight in time for our wedding in June!
10. Aidan is learning more and more by the day! His newest trick.. spitting his food out! I don't mean just pushing it out with his tongue... I mean SPITTING it!
WOW, ten things are harder then they seem. However, it really got me thinking about things. For instance, I am going to go make my grocery list!

WooHoo
So, Anthony's Dad came into town today to visit and deliver our Christmas presents. We got one of those digital picture frames!!!! YAY! I just uploaded 114 photos to it that range from the hospital to now of Aidan. I'm SO stoked to have it! Now I have one for the house and a keychain version for on the go! Anthony also got some Carhart water repelant bib overalls. He LOVES them. He wore them to work tonight. We are planning on going to the car lot tomorrow to test drive my car. CROSS YOUR FINGERS that we make it there tomorrow. I hope Anthony is in the mood... I want my new car!
