i'm spent.

it's 5:15, and i just got home. i've been gone since 9:30 this morning - running errands, dropping off lunch for the teen, lunching and shopping with MommyBelle & co., and a bit more shopping after waiting out the bean's nap (sitting in the target parking lot, no less). oy. and when i pulled up, there was a crapload of packages waiting on my doorstep. WTF? i don't even remember ordering more than one item from amazon.

i have a fun weekend recap to post, but i lack the energy at the moment. i do, however, have a couple of fun videos to show off . i warn you now, these are most likely clips that will only be appreciated by baby lovers and moms who remember what it's like to be proud of every teeny-tiny, itty-bitty little thing that their precious offspring does.

i've been trying to teach the bean some very basic "baby signs," like the ones for "milk" and "more," although she hasn't seemed particularly interested. i must admit that i haven't been particularly diligent about it, either. heh. and then last night, i was eating some ice cream (darn you, nanners, for turning me on to this wonderful stuff), and she came over to have a bite. shut up, it's dairy.

after she'd gobbled down the bite i gave her, she came over and i said "oh! do you want some more?" and she put her little hands together in the sign for "more"! i thought perhaps it might have been a fluke, but when she came back for another round of ice cream, she did it again.



so. stinking. excited. yeah, it seems silly and not like a huge deal, but i was pretty darn proud of my little sweet pea.

and if you can stand it, i've got another video (this one's a little longer - 30ish seconds you'll never, ever get back).



in case you're wondering, we were watching "wedding crashers." i wasn't taking wan-niversary week too far or anything.

ohhh, my feet hurt. i think i'll go prop 'em up on the couch and relax for a bit.
