What a day!

Well, first off, LJ slept till 7:01 a.m. this morning!!!  Anything with a 7 in front of it is wonderful!! Secondly, Lance let me stay in bed and I got to rest until he went to the field!!  It was a day game, so it was no "teenager's sleep in", but it felt SO good after lots of early mornings.  Yay for me!  Yay for LJ to have a morning with his dad ...while we're at it, yay for Lance, too!  :)

Well, LJ and I had a great day.  At 11 a.m., he was tired, so I put him down before lunch and got myself ready for the game.  When he woke up an hour later, I  put him in the bath, gave him lunch, and we biked to the game.  Get this...LJ stayed in his seat, (standing in front of or sitting in it or my lap) from the 4th inning till the end of the game. He was TOO good.  I was so impressed!!  

After the game, we all biked home together and then walked to Whole Foods for spaghetti fixins'.  I was going to make some baked brie, but whole foods doesn't carry crescent rolls I use.  SO...we decided on take-out appetizers.  How fun, huh?  The spaghetti is still cooking -- we are eating after LJ goes down-- and we have already eaten our crab cake and egg rolls from Roy's across the street.  After I made the spaghetti sauce, we let it simmer while we went out to the "terrace" to let LJ play before bath time.  We watched the water while LJ played bat and ball in the grass.  What a wonderful end to the day.  If I can get LJ out of the apartment, he is as happy here as he ever is at home.  That makes me smile because sometimes I worry about moving him so much.  He is loving it here, though.  We have been here just two weeks today, and it seems like longer.  I guess that may be the longest we've stayed somewhere without travel.  I have to say, it's been nice.  

So, that's our day.  Tomorrow, we are eating lunch with a man from Lafayette that is a friend of the family.  Me-Maw - I found a "kid - friendly place" in Little Italy, so we will have to try it if we find it good tomorrow.  It's so good to have Lance home.  it's sad that he leaves again quickly, but that's the baseball season, and that's how it is.  If you have time, look at his July schedule -- AMAZING.  Keep reminding me how much he'll be home then!!!  It will be wonderful.

Sorry about no pictures tonight --the camera needs charging.  I'll make sure to charge it and get good pictures of our outings tomorrow.

Love you!
