confessions

I always think it's fun to read about "real life". Here are just a few of my real life confessions...

1. Sometimes I leave our mail in the mailbox if I check it and there's not anything exciting in there. (exciting = a shower invitation, wedding invitation, birth announcement, thank you note, magazine, or good catalog.)

2. I currently don't own an iron. The one we used to have quit working a while back and I haven't gone out and bought another one. This is much to the dismay of my mom who used to iron our homework so we wouldn't turn it in with creases in it. :) If I bring some of Reid's clothes to her house she will iron them for me, which is so sweet of her/so pathetic of me.

3. We still have Reid's swing set up in our living room. He used it about once a day until he was 6 months old, but hasn't gotten in it since then. I'm sort of sad to put it away, but it's on the agenda to do tomorrow.

4. We don't have story time before Reid goes to bed. I REALLY want to, but he pretty much cries from the time he gets out of the bath until he falls asleep while drinking his bottle. We read a lot during the day, but I just really want to do the bedtime story thing. Oh well. I'm sure it will become part of our routine eventually.

5. Sometimes we laugh when Reid cries! He just makes the cutest/funniest faces when he cries. I feel bad that we do this, but we can't really help it. :)

This is just a picture of Reid bundled up and ready to enjoy the gorgeous weather yesterday morning! We plan to spend a lot of time outside tomorrow too!
