After a very long day, we made it to Oregon a few minutes early. My mom has internet, but no N key which is making typing super fun. This will be short.<\/p>\n
Erik was such a screamy baby in general, but an excellent sleeper on the plane that it never occurred to me I might be saddled with a screamy plane baby. Elsa is not generally a screamer, but I don’t think the people seated around us will ever believe that. It was quite miserable until she fell asleep.<\/p>\n
She slept on my lap for four hours and now my back is paying the price. It was hurting this morning, but then I went and twisted it wrong and now I can’t stand up straight. Mike likes having my eyes level with is nipples, I think. <\/p>\n
I hope it heals quickly because carrying around a 22 pound baby with a bad back is impossible.<\/p>\n
I was going to take Erik to the fair today but there’s no way I could do it. He ended up going with my mom, sister and the three cousins. I hope he has fun and they take lots of pictures.<\/p>\n
Speaking of the boy, I was so impressed with him on the plane. He was pretty bored b\/c his game ran out of juice, but he didn’t whine or cause a fuss at all. He watched the movie (Diary of a Wimpy Kid), stared into space and did math problems with Mike. <\/p>\n
Can I just say I find it beyond bizarre that his idea of fun is math problems? I don’t get it. I brought him magazines, maze books, play-doh and matchbox cars, but he just wanted to work on simple adding problems with Mike. I guess he takes after his father in more than just looks. I wouldn’t say I’m bad<\/i> at math, but I certainly don’t enjoy it.<\/p>\n
Mike is out with my brother-in-law levelling the sand for the pool. Who on earth is going to go swimming? It’s freezing here! My mom picked us up last night and had her van A\/C blasting. It was only 66 degrees. When you’re used to temps up to 100, 66 is pretty dang cold. It’s not supposed to get above 82 the whole time we are here. My parents don’t have A\/C (most people around here don’t), but that doesn’t matter. It is still cooler here than it is in our upstairs bedrooms with our A\/C running. <\/p>\n
I’m tired of sticking my finger down the N hole so better wrap this up. Hope you guys are having a good weekend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
