Not terrible

Well considering I haven’t posted in what seems like forever again (hey, maybe that new habit of posting was starting to form), I haven’t done too terrible for the month of September.  Five posts before this one and half the month left to play catch up.  I still haven’t renewed our site but have it in the budget for next week so it’ll get done I promise.

We definitely took advantage of my parents visit this time and besides getting our driver’s licenses (finally), we also were able to squeeze in a date night, and I was able to squeeze in a hair appointment!  We had our date night at Zinger’s which was just ok.  We had a great time getting out together and watching the NFL kickoff and while the service was good, the food was mediocre.  But we did get out and tried something new so that’s what matters.

Brady and I went back to the library for story time yesterday.  It was definitely more successful than our last visit and I’m glad we went back.  We showed up right at 10:30 and were able to sit down and grab a few books before it started.  I don’t know if she was more comfortable, or her teeth were bothering her less, or she had more sleep or what but Brady did much better.  No crying or fits at all.  She still wouldn’t talk when spoken too and was not down for participating in the songs or movements associated with them.  And she didn’t listen to the story like the other kids, but she did sit quietly and pull lots of books off the shelves and pile them around herself while “reading”.  The librarian thought it was so cute, she asked permission to take a picture of her with all the books.  While Brady didn’t cooperate by smiling (I told them she was painfully shy, more shy than me if that’s possible), she at least looked at the camera.  I’m wondering if she’s going to pop up on the library’s website or newsletter!
