Slept in today, all the way to 2:30, when it's cooler it seems we sleep a little longer. I think reading until 6 am had something to do with it too. Mommy and Pearl slept longer than I did, they were up at 3ish. I have made a discovery, Pearl likes to ride on my shoulders. She gets up there and giggles and pats my head with excitement. I walked her around the house tonight on my shoulders making sure to duck through the doorways so Pearl's head didn't bump.

Bumpa will be here in 5 days, and we are starting to get excited for his visit. The last time he saw Pearl she was just a little blob who didn't do too much. Now Pearl is walking everywhere and carrying things, she's always quite busy doing things. I also think Pearl is secretly hoping that Bumpa will pull her around in her blocks wagon, she just loves rides around the house in there.

I am anxious to get going at work, more delay makes it next week is the earliest we will be able to get  in there and start prepping. Wendesday morning the curcuit breaker box fried, and the county inspector was supposed to arrive that afternoon to approve the Certificate of Occupancy (CO). We need the CO before we can do anything, and can't get that if things are not working properly. It will be nice to get to work and make money so I can start EMT training, I am very interested in doing that and changing "carreers". It's not that I don't love cooking, I just think it's time for something different.

As I am writing this Pearl can't help but climb all over me and yell at me (in Pearlese), I think somebody wants attention.

When we went to get diapers yesterday we also picked up a couple pair of PJs because Pearl is outgrowing her other ones. This morning when Pearl came walking out of her room with Mommie she just looked too cute not to take a picture, so I took 10 hehehe.

Here we have Pearl in her new PJs, flower print pants, and flower print sleeves, with a big flower right on the chest.

We went to Toy-R-Us this evening to look at toys for Pearl for Christmas. This year will be her second one but last year she was only 3 months old, and not very aware of the fact. This year toys are more interesting and she likes to play with them. We got diapers there because we have a BrU rewards card so if we buy 9 boxes the 10th is free, plus there are other goodies for spending money there. They have the REALLY big boxes of diapers, we got 156 of them for 40 bucks, it's a great deal, usually we get 80-ish for 31 bucks. We got 576 wipes for the bum wiping as well, this all should last us a few days at least (hehehe)

Pearl has been doing a lot of walking, she is at the point where she is simply walking around in circles. She was carrying a spatula and a tupperware banging them together walking in a circle, a parade of sorts I guess. I tickled her a lot today, because her laugh is so wonderfully cute, I just can't help it. Cartoons are getting attention from Pearl, she dances and claps, and does this girating thing that I really can't explain. She really is pretty amazing...
