Number of people supposed to come to the playgroup/cookie exchange (not including children):5
Number that actually came (not including kids): 2… and let me tell you how glad I am, because I have more cookies than I know what to do with. Grandma and Grandpa Z are in for a surprise this weekend while they are house sitting :)
Number of candy cane brownies consumed in the last two days: 45… okay, so maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration… more like 6. Yikes!
Number of types of cookies and candies consumed at the party: 7 …and I tasted (ok, ate) one or three of each
Number of people left to Christmas shop for: 5 (I think)
Number of gifts to wrap, already purchased: 6
Number of Christmas cards addressed (of the 75 to be sent): 35
Number of minutes left before I have to leave for my hair appointment: 77
Number of things to do before we leave for Chicago: 859… pack for myself, pack for Jack, mentally pack for EZ so that when he packs I can re-pack when he is done, finish laundry with half of what I need to pack, finish Christmas cards, hair appointment, feed baby, bathe baby, and hello, I’m pretty sure there’s a new episode of Grey’s Anatomy on tonight… what the heck am I doing writing this post!?
Ok, so I’m finished with numbers for now… the playgroup/cookie exchange was great. Perfect number of people considering Jack’s super-sensitive nature lately (must be the teething). He melted down and clung to Mommy about three times yesterday. Poor little guy. Feel so bad for him when he is so cranky. He seemed to enjoy the company but I did notice that he was a little frustrated with his inability to get around as well as the other two little ones… maybe that will motivate him.
Here is the photo we decided on for the Christmas card. Wait until you see how the card turned out! Adorable.
That is just an adorable picture! What a little angel. We miss you guys and hope to see you really soon.
By the way, what is with the repeats on Grey’s?
Your comment about packing for Eric made me laugh out loud. I did the same thing, although I’m now starting just to pack for Patrick to save us the time of unpacking what he did and repacking what he really does need. What did they do before us?
By the way, I just read your “100 things about me” for the first time. HYSTERICAL! I’m glad that you have such a love of white socks. I feel the same way. :)
