blahhhhhh

not much to report here, really. kelvin has today and tomorrow off, so he went down to appleton to hand in the papers for insurance for madison (no, her ss card didn't come, but they said to just call with her number whenever we get it... uh, ok?) and to get his drug test done for the oklahoma job. since my day planner said i had nothing booked for the day, the kids and i went with. ok, so i don't have a real day planner, but i had to make it sound good, hehe. we went to the mall for a little while and just sort of walked around and had fazoli's for lunch. we also hit up walmart for diapers and after lunch we went to old navy to get a pair of jeans for madison... i got a 3-6 month size because she's so long! they should fit for a little while- long enough to be worth the $10, anyway. we had tried goodwill, but they didn't have much this time; no jeans for infants and nada for anything in 0-3 months. that's the thing about thrift shopping: sometimes you get it, sometimes you don't. cole was happy to sit in the stroller and watch people- he did, however, freak out a bit when we went in the elevator at scheel's. as soon as he saw the door starting to close, he tripped out big time, but on the way back down he was ok. poor baby- i felt SO bad for him! he was seriously scared. anyway, so far there seems to be minimal emotional scarring, so that's good. as for the title of "blahhhhh", i'm referring to the weather, not the day in general. i'm not so sure madison would agree- she's got a bit of a cold, i'm afraid... congested and a bit on the touchy side. poor thing! cole had his first cold when he was about 4 weeks, too, and he got over it pretty quickly, so i'm hoping she'll do the same. it's messing with her tummy a little- she spit up quite a bit the last time she ate. wonderful how drainage does that to little ones, huh? yuck. as long as she doesn't get a fever, i'm not too worried. so- tomorrow, we're off the mom and dad's and then on sunday we'll be going to kandace and duey's after meeting. those are the plans, anyway- i'm overwhelmed, i haven't been out of the house this much in over two months!!! that's long enough for one to start becoming an agoraphobic. that, or just go insane... so now i have a love/hate relationship with going out. another mommy classic... :)
