big boots to fill

i got the afternoon "off" today... kelvin kept cole and madison at home while i got to go to appleton with remington. there are quite a few things i really need but i don't want to get just yet, since i do plan to lose a number of pounds. they're being stubborn and clingy, so for now i just got a few tank tops for underneath my shirts. we met up with mom, sarah and suz while they were shopping for shoes for the wedding. i've never been one to wear high heels... a wedge is about as much as i'll do, but i'm open to new things. if 3/4 of my diet can be veggies, i sure can wear heels, right? i love the shoes sarah chose to go with the bridesmaids dresses- they're classy!! anyway, it was exciting to get out for a few hours, so i thought i'd mention it. :)

this is what happens when you walk into someone's bent-up license plate...



among the things that coy and bentley are lending to remington is a pair of itty-bitty cowboy boots. they are *the* cutest things ever, and i can't wait for remington to be able to wear them!


he'll have to grow a bit first. think he's a little self-conscious about those li'l chicken legs? the tiny man-child eats like it's going out of style and is developing right on track but is still pretty petite. according to our scale, he's a smidgen over 10 lbs; i'm debating taking him to the clinic next week just to get an accurate weight. we'll see. his most recent discovery is the mirror and the cute itsy-bitsy boy that copies everything he does. he loves to "talk" to him; in fact, sometimes it's the only thing that will make him happy. and when we talk to him and say "i love you", he gets a grin so big his face about busts in two. just like our hearts :)
