<\/p>\nIt was actually a pretty good weekend. And for a number of reasons, I felt on Sunday night that I had actually gotten a small break from the constant-ness of mommyhood. It was a nice feeling.<\/p>\n
On Friday, Eric went to see a demo of the laser system he’s thinking of getting. A couple of guys from work went along instead of me (this was my preference). He seemed to be very much impressed by it. So who knows…a laser engraving system may be in our near future. Anyone need personalized gifts for Christmas? <\/p>\n
I had my 30-week appointment on Friday, too. My lovely sister watched the twins for me. She’s just great! And my appointment was fine. I’d actually lost a little weight because of the GD stuff (which is pretty normal). But that seems to be going fine, so they weren’t concerned about the one HUGE reading last week. And I’m measuring at exactly the right week, and we heard a happy little heartbeat. So all seems to be going just fine. Yay for good reports!<\/p>\n
On Saturday, we were very busy in the morning. We all took a walk (Eric included), then he mowed while I manned children and started laundry. We’ve been switching slowly to doing one-nap days more often, but the result is a little more crankiness than usual. And Erin was really bad on Saturday morning. I was pretty happy to put them down for naps, to be honest. Then I ironed, and Eric made and canned applesauce for me. He’s pretty great, I must say.<\/p>\n
His mom arrived mid-afternoon so we could go to a wedding. Then we went out to dinner and a movie (Sorcerer’s Apprentice). It was almost like our first real date (same area\/theater), except, as he said, that time I “wasn’t knocked up.” Nice, sweetie. ![\"whatevah\"](\"http:\/\/s.xanga.com\/images\/whatevah.gif\" "\\"whatevah\\"")

Sunday, after church, we headed to C-ville to visit with my parents. And my grandpa and his wife were in town, so we took the babies down so they could see them. Except that the twins didn’t get much of a nap, we had a good time. Then it was home, supper, twins’ bedtime and vegging in front of the TV for us. <\/p>\n
So, overall, a good weekend. I have a few things on my to-do list today. We’ll see which ones I get done. <\/p>\n
And you are now caught up on my life. Happy Monday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
