03.01.10: Skipped Trip

Dear Friends and Family,

Another weekend, another cancelled trip. We had grand plans to visit my college roommate and her new one month old. Then, P came down with a cold, compliments of daycare. And, we figured we'd spare the newborn and stay at home.

Saturday was a quiet day of playing with P while Mr. mouse went on an errand run. We went out for dinner and it turns out we saved the best (of our Restaurant Week) for last. Mr. mouse loved his duck confit and his hangar steak. And, I could not get enough of my braised short rib or my rack of lamb. Delicious.

Sunday was another quiet day. P had her first serious fall. She was reaching for a toy on the coffee table, got excited, lost her balance, and fell backward. At first we thought it was just a fall. Then, we noticed the mouth full of blood. We cleaned it up and she seemed fine, but, she scared us for the rest of the day. Nothing like seeing a river of blood coming out of your kid's mouth to make you feel like an inadequate parent.

And, now it's Monday. And, through a unfortunate series of events P's off to daycare and I'm off to work and Mr. mouse is on vacation.


Cheers!
mouse
