Just another day in paradise :) - Just missing Dada




Not much to report today - just the usual YMCA trip, some swimming, lunch at home and a good nap.  We ate dinner at a Peruvian restaurant - were feeling a little frisky tonight.  

LJ had "salchipapa" - cut up hot-dog type sausage and some french fries while I had their sampler appetizer.  From what I can tell, there are a lot of potatoes in Peruvian food, and a lot of carbs.  I saw that most of the entrees were served with both french fries and rice.  Wow -- atkins country they are not!  It was about .7 of a mile from our house, and it was a fun trip.  I saw a greek restaurant and another thai place that maybe we can try for lunch or something sometime this week.  It's always fun to eat a meal out every few days.  It mixes it up, and it keeps LJ used to having to behave in public!  

Tomorrow, I think we are going to go to the zoo.  We are so lucky - the Virginia zoo is less than 2 miles from our house, and I'm so excited for LJ and I to go see it.  If we like it, for 45 dollars, we can buy a membership and go whenever we'd like.  Maybe my dream of befriending a gorilla could finally come true ;)  

I'm going to finish my tea and get ready for bed.  For some reason, LJ was up at 5:40 a.m. this morning, and he's been getting earlier every day.  He even laid down to watch t.v. for a bit this morning after breakfast - see the picture.  He never does that!  The weather here has been cold, windy and rainy, so I hope we're not steering into a cold.  Who knows...maybe there's no explanation and tomorrow he'll sleep till 7:30 a.m.  Let's pray for that!

Love you guys, and Lance we miss you a ton.  It's not the same without you!
