Sundown after a freshly mowed lawn and running through the sprinklers and mud.

Lasted a long time – from 3 pm until after 8 pm. Adam and I wanted to be low key, inside and cool. I could see him unwinding and we were “just us”! We took the dog for a walk before dinner, we loved our “tuna noodle surprise and before bedtime I got giggles and kisses. Good stuff.

Daddy ‘s Potty Training:

Posted on May 12, 2012 by zalexander
So I’m in the bathroom and Adam is on his Potty Chair and I’m telling him to relax and let the pee-pee and poop go into toilet. And what do ya know?? I talked myself into having to go and now I have to hold it in until he finishes. Ugh.

Jury Not-Selected

Not chosen but a nice distraction from my daily grind. Because I had a tiny sliver of extra time and I was hopped up on interior design mags I started tearing the old kitchen floor. (started since I didn’t finish and underestimated the amount of work). It was honestly a good day.

Time to go be a daddy!

Jury Duty = Architectural Digest

Sitting in Juror Lounge, sipping bad coffee and lazily reviewing back issues of AD. Candidly not my worst day.

Jury Duty today and this is my horoscope – doesn’t look promising

Don’t compromise your beliefs today — people will notice and admire you for it.

Your people are heading in the wrong direction — but good luck getting them to see things your way! You may be better off just planning for the worst, so you can make the most of whatever they come up with.

Adam playing under the kitchen table for the first time. And he stayed under to play with his cars while I did the dishes. Priceless!

An unexpected hug after a tumultuous evening. As someone flexes their independence they can be a handful.

1) the bank came down on the house in La Crescenta and I’m set to close June 8th.
2) The dog licking peanut butter out of the jar – a classic fun time

A special thanks to everyone who read my unvarnished post last night. I felt uncomfortable and vulnerable and you all made me feel human and not substandard by being so supportive.
