What A Day!

Today Katie & Ava and Sheri-Lynne, Bill, Kyle, Jared & Corbin were suppose to come over for dinner but then Greyson got sick and Ava got pink eye! So my fun filled night just got shot to hell. The one positive that I can come up with is that now I can use the taco stuff to make...well, tacos...but for a mom from MOPS who just recently had a baby (you know the whole bring over a casserole thingy). So now I won't have to A. come up with something to make and B. go out and buy the stuff to make it. There is my positive spin on the current situation. You just never know what to expect when you're a mom (and doing it on your own - if Clayton were here I would be able to go out even if Greyson were sick because Clayton could take care of him...but I would probably feel guilty and decide not to go anyway). And since Ava has pink eye (well, Katie is only 99% sure) Katie might have to cancel movie night tomorrow. I was looking forward to it too! It was disheartening to know that I would miss the Bachelor but I got over it...so I guess that is the positive in that situation.

You know how I know that Greyson is sick...he is currently lying on his bedroom floor fast asleep. Yup, he just plopped down there (to rest his eyes, I'm sure) and passed out. That happened this morning too, only that time he passed out on the couch. I wonder how tonight will pan out...will we be up till the crack of dawn because he got all his sleep during the day (I hope not - we have a Doctor appointment tomorrow - synagis shot).

Aww! My poor baby!

Oops. I forgot to rotate it.

Getting his treatment.

It's a goldfish.

Another thing, I went to pick up the frames I ordered from Walmart.com and they weren't anything like I was hoping. I'm pretty sure that is where I got my first frame (though I can't find it anywhere in the store). What am I going to do? Well, I decided that I would keep them and put different pictures in them...only I don't have anywhere to hang them because I already have open space set aside for my "scrapbook" project...oh me, oh my!!! Clayton will kill me if I spend all his money trying to find the right frame to match the one I have currently...I might just have to nix the one I have and find some frames elsewhere and buy them all at once...

Oh, it is such a beautiful day! If Clayton were here we could be at the beach walking or at the park (well, not with Greyson sick - but you know what I mean)...or if we had a house I could be having a fire tonight (I can't wait until we buy a house). It had to have been 70 degrees at one point. All of my windows are open, and there is a very nice breeze. It's still nice. I should get a book and go out on the deck. That would be nice.

I got to talk to Clayton today. It was a nice conversation. I think I might have done most of the talking. He is having fun (which I'm glad to hear)! I want him to take advantage of this time away to live the "single guy" life (and no I don't mean hook up with a bunch of random girls). I want him to have fun hanging with the guys. Workout at the gym, play basketball or football, go do what you want to do when you want to do it (or rather when the Marine Corp says you're off duty), because when he gets home he isn't leaving my side (just kidding!). He said that it looks like he should be coming home in 7months, but of course he doesn't know for sure. I hope they don't find a way to keep him! I want him to come home!!!
