yesterdays
yesterday i didn't have to work so i drove up to snohomish to hang out with frontal. he is in town for only a few days. instead of the usual thrifting that we do we decided to go to the antiques stores in town.
there was a lot of cool stuff to be seen, but most of the stores closed at 5 so we couldn't see all of it.
i did buy some cloth napkins. i have been wanting to make some, and maybe i still will, but these were neat so i got them.
we also stopped at kmart to look for some dish towels but they were all crap. and we went to the goodwill in m-ville and i bought a lot of books for kids, including hatchet
which was one of my favorite books.

may
just like the beginning of every other month i can't believe it's MAY already. also, it's a month away from HAVING A BABY. what the hell? this is weird!
speaking of baby... we are almost all ready to go. last weekend we got a car seat. but it's not in the car yet. it's kind of a monster of a car seat and it requires that which ever seat it's behind be moved up to an almost uncomfortable position. we're going to try and put it in the middle and see if that works. if it doesn't...then i guess i will always be in the passenger seat and corey will always have to drive even if i pick him up. OH WELL.
i also got this sweet baby pouch sling on etsy. it's really awesome, it even has pockets on it. it is way cooler than the one at target that i sort of wanted. i can't wait to use it.
this weekend we got a lot of "hanging out" done, like walking part way to the u-district, putting a puzzle together (we are old), going on a walk down to fremont, and NAPS up the bung hole.
tomorrow (as in today)i'm going to pick up my bro-ham from the airport. AND... while we're there we will also pick up.........BRENTIE!!!! we have plans to eat at aqua verde
i'm really, REALLY excited because i don't even remember the last time we ate there. but it was probably when brent lived in seattle and brent hasn't lived in or around seattle in a long, long time.
it's really late and i should probably go to bed. i haven't stayed up this late since...um friday, but still, i usually go to bed at like 10.
