It was like, plus 10 or something foolish here yesterday. Windy, because it's always windy, but nice. The babe and I went for a walk, he fell asleep. I thought he fell asleep, but as he was reclining with his eyes closed, I hear a "pppppppppppppbt" coming from the stroller. His eyes are maybe half open, and he's pursing his little lips, making his favourite sound on earth. Pretty funny. He did fall asleep for real just before we got home. To compensate for yesterday's niceness, today it is rather cold and quite rainy. Not good for walking. I may invest in a new raincoat this year; mine is from 1993. It still fits, but it's from Northern Reflections and has paint on it. In other jacket news, I have a lovely leather jacket that grew over the past year, and now doesn't fit even a little bit. It's really nice, and hardly worn (I had this thing about it being a really nice jacket, and not wanting to ruin it, so I rarely wore it), and now useless to me. I'm going to see about getting it tailored, but I have a feeling that it'll cost as much to fix this one as to get a new one. We'll see.
We went bowling (was supposed to be curling, but the team got bumped for the 2nd time) on Friday, and I rocked, as usual. My high score was 64. Aw yeah. It was pretty fun though, and my sister and her man came over to watch the wee lad, who behaved wonderfully. Good to know. The fiancé and I might need to have an actual date night sometime.
I have a cold, and all our medication is night-time formula, so I can't take anything, lest I fall asleep and the babe is left to fend for himself. He'll be a year on the 9th, I can't believe it. He can almost walk, and does all kinds of other neat tricks. hah. This is a random post, no? What else. We've changed everything we could about the wedding, and are now pretty happy with what we're doing. There's just one hitch left, and that is that because we're now having family at the wedding, we don't want to (nor is there any need to) have a reception in the fiancé's hometown at all, let alone the following day. We (yes, really we, not me) would much rather relax, sleep in, enjoy our day as newlyweds, eat leftover cake, that kind of thing, than get up, pack up, and drive 2 hours to a party with a bunch of his parents friends. The fiancé mentioned this, and it didn't really go over that well, so we'll have to leave it for now and tackle it again later. The only reason there was going to be a reception there was because no extended family members were going to be at the wedding. Since they now are, it is, thankfully, unnecessary. Let's keep this simple, shall we? Eyes on the prize, or at least the main event, which is the wedding, which is here. Lovely. We have someone to perform the ceremony, and a place to have it, so now can start to deal with things like final guest list, food, flowers, and stuff.
The babe awakes. Early, no good.

Also, and this is probably the MOST IMPORTANT, please register somewhere. :) I realize you have a lot a new stuff since moving into the new place, but you can never have too much crap. :)
Re: jacket.. It probably will cost more to tailor, so you're better off trying to sell it on ebay, and get yourself a new one.
yes, we will register somewhere. Not for a lot of stuff, because we've been living together for like, 5 years now, so need limited stuff, but you can always use like, nice sheets and towels and fun small appliances. Plus, it's super fun to run around with the scanner gun!
the jacket thing is still up in the air, it's just not right fit-wise, it looks like I'm wearing football-esque shoulder pads. no good. I just need to find a cheap / good tailor or a suitable pre-baby-body body double to buy it from me.
