The Sunday Somethings, May 24
May 24th, 2009Others writing The Sunday Somethings: Audrey
Something that made me smile this week: Watching Maddie run on the decks of the ship was the highlight of the trip for me. She was shrieking with joy. I loved seeing her so happy.
Something I’m thinking: I have a lot of photos to sort from our trip!!!
Something I am hoping: I’m hoping to get the time to put together a photobook from the trip. I also still need to finish last year’s photobook(s).
Something happening around the house: We had another games day/night at our house yesterday. I was able to play several “real” games, thanks to Gabe having “baby duty” for the majority of the night.
Something I’m reading: I mostly read The Daily Compass schedules on our cruise this week! I started reading Practical Magic and hope that I can finish it before Wednesday – yikes, not much time left! I have quite a bit left in Parenting, Inc. for the Mothers & More book club in a few weeks.
Something tasty I ate this week: Out of all the things that I ate on the cruise, I feel like mentioning the oatmeal. YUM! I love the real oatmeal that I had on the cruise and all the little sides of brown sugar, raisins, and almonds. So tasty!
Something Maddie did this week: She took her first cruise!
Something I struggled with this week: We didn’t have too many struggles while on vacation aside from things like worrying about whether the baby has enough sunscreen and how to entertain her at meals.
Something I’m doing towards my goals: Gabe and I both went to the spa for professional massages on the cruise. It was wonderful. Gabe enjoyed the hot stones massage. Rocks make it a bit more manly, right? I’ve marked both of these goals off my list.
Something I learned this week: I learned that Maddie absolutely LOVES her stroller. She kept begging to ride in it while we were on the cruise. When we came home, we had to hide it so she didn’t throw a fit every time that she saw it.
Something I’m looking forward to next week: I’m glad to have a holiday tomorrow. I still need some recovery time from our trip! The cleaners are coming this week. I also have book club, if I can finish this month’s selection…only a few more days!!!
Something random: While in Bermuda, we traveled over the smallest drawbridge in the world. Somerset Bridge was built in 1620 and opens 22 inches, just barely big enough to allow a sailboat’s mast to pass.
Something I captured: We bought several of the photos from the ship’s photographers. Here’s one of our favorites from formal night.
