on monday, i never go to work

happy leap day! i forgot it was leap day until i went to the bank and had to write the date on my deposit slip. seriously, i don't know what people do with birthdays on leap day...does anyone know anybody with a leap day birthday?

anywho. it's been a pretty nondescript couple of days here. today we had playdate, which went well. then we came home, had rest time, and then went out again to the bank and to pick up brian from borders to go to dinner (fazoli's) and hit the grocery store. i'd been procrastinating on the grocery store thing for 3 days, and the time had come. i think abby may have some kind of stomach problem...either something she ate or an incipient stomach flu, because she had some bathroom issues today and kept saying her "beebo" (belly button) hurt. i guess we'll see.

ian's getting to be much more involved in his environment. he's laughing a lot more now, and will hold a toy for a while and try to put it in his mouth. hard to believe he's getting so big. naps are still an issue, but i'm trying not to stress too much about it.

i had a major coup yesterday...i was perusing craigslist as i do about once a week, and one of the most recent entries was for a sit-n-stand stroller, which i've been wanting since ian was born. it's a stroller where it has the regular seat thing in the front, but then behind it is a platform for an older child to stand and a jump seat kind of thing for when they get tired of standing. it's an awesome thing. so, i was the first to respond to the ad, so we're picking it up in janesville tomorrow morning. woo!
