while we wait...

... my son has taught me that there's more than one meaning of "crash cart". his version doesn't include someone hollering "code blue", thankfully; it does, however, keep him plenty occupied! for whatever reason, he loves this particular little wire utility cart... lucky for him, i don't have any dire need for it, so he's free to push it around to his heart's content, or park it somewhere that guarantees i'll trip over it. or crash it, if the mood suits.

hmmm, wheels!

for the record, cole eventually put it back upright on his own!

the other big thing here is cole has two molars poking through!! i noticed one about a week ago, just barely exposing itself and today i caught sight of one on the other side... they're both on the top, one on each side. no wonder he's been such a crankpot... i would be too! there are more coming so the ride ain't over, but it's two less that we have to worry about.

as for the baby, nothing new to report. i had some pretty hard contractions all last evening, but just as it looked like they'd be coming pretty regular, they tapered off. of course. grrr. they're still coming and going today, same as the last three weeks... maybe she's not stubborn after all- maybe she's SUPER laid-back! that would be a nice change... :) anyway, be assured that should anything happen, we'll update the blog before we leave. i hope that's soon, because i'm getting a little tired of living in my pj's and out of my suitcase- we're not going anywhere, and i'm living out of my suitcase. how crazy. i supposed i could just unpack everything, but that takes some energy i don't really have/am trying to save and anyway, it'd have to be repacked eventually, so it's probably better off staying put. come to think of it, we're all kind of doing that... cole's stuff is packed (but he has clothes in his room- just his bath stuff, motrin and teething tablets are in and out of the bag) and kelvin has a few things in a duffel... at least they can wear CLOTHES!!
