My parents are coming!

So today was a really really long day!  It was a very cold and rainy day here and there wasn’t much going on here.   Eric ran out in the morning with Ben to pick up some vegetables for Shabbat and Talia and I stayed home and did some cooking together.  Talia has taken to peeling vegetables.  She enjoys the peeler and, to date, still has all her skin intact on her little fingers.

The rest of the day we all kind of hung out.  The kids were happy playing together with minimal fighting.  I had an appointment at the doctor with Keren this afternoon because her eyes have been all gooky for the past few days.  Of course by this afternoon when she woke up from her nap her eyes were significantly better so I felt stupid when I got there and had little to show her.  She prescribed a cream and drops but I told her that since she’s doing so much better that maybe I would wait a few days before I do anything like stick cream into her eyes.

Anyway, this evening we had another party!  What else is new?  We had a chanukat habayit in the neighborhood.  We got there a little after 6 and by 7 we were out the door, as planned!  I couldn’t do another late night with the kids tonight.  We came home, put them to sleep and I fed Keren and put her to sleep and now I am waiting to take Eric to the airport and pick my parents up.  The kids are so excited that I didn’t think they would be able to fall asleep tonight! 

While Eric is away I am supposed to buy a car!!  The car that we looked at should be back from the Mazda dealership and be all fixed up by Sunday and I am supposed to go and give them the credit cards and sign the paperwork and then take the car home!!  No pressure on me!!
