Yesterday I read Graceling, by Kristin Cashore - an excellent YA fantasy read. I don't really like fantasy, but it was well written and immediately drew me into the story. I was sad when it ended. Kristin Cashore, write more!
We did some hard-core Labor Day shopping yesterday while The Boy was at daycare. I didn't do well with pants or dresses because of that dreaded belly flab from having Turtle two weeks ago, but I did find a plethora of new blouses and A BATHING SUIT. I wasn't looking for one, but I found a pretty aqua one-piece number which is flattering and hides the belly. I also got one dress which is very similar to all my other dresses, but what can I say? I have a style. It just happens to be a 1950s-style-off-white-with-large-black-flowers style.
The Boy has cradle cap. I guess I shouldn't be surprised as he has eczema which requires the occasional prescription ointment for flare-ups, but I didn't know that toddlers got cradle cap. he kept itching his head, and I thought that it was lice (thankfully, no). This week I noticed the scales on his scalp, so this morning we started on a baby oil/fine-toothed comb and scrubbing head bath regiment, and it already looks better.
Turtle has decided that sleeping at night is for losers, so the past couple nights have been a little rough. The silver lining is that I haven't needed my alarm to wake up, right?
