Random catching up and videos

I was working on this post and kept having trouble uploading a video from my phone. That's where most of the delays came from. So here's some things I need/want to get caught up on.

    A few afternoons ago, the Orkin man banged on the door. (Our doorbell doesn't work and he only has Matt's number, and Matt was at work) I completely forgot he was coming, even though I was reminded that morning.  I had been trying to get Adrian fed and to sleep and I wasn't dressed yet.  I was wearing polka dot pajama pants and my hair was falling out of my pony tail. (Sexy huh? Poor Matt.) So I ran downstairs and used the baby to cover the top half of my embarassing pajamas. Then I realized; hey, the orkin man looks like a ghostbuster.  He can't really judge me. He was nice and I survived.

 I finally have proof that Adrian can roll over! I'm not sure if the last time was a fluke or the real deal but I only got pictures of it.  So here you go:



     Also, another day he was making cute noises and sticking his tongue out:



     We went to my parent's house a few days ago and my mom made delicious enchiladas! Adrian kept freaking out when other people tried to hold him. It makes me feel good and bad at the same time.  I feel good because it means he knows I'm his safe place and is attached to me the way he is supposed to be. I feel bad for obvious reasons, but of course everyone understands.  He was happy with both mom and Michelle for a little while.

Bundled up on our way to get my car fixed.

Trying to sit up!

Checking out the reindeer on his foot



     The day we got Adrian's pictures taken, Eric came to visit. We didn't expect to see him so it was a nice surprise. He was supposed to go hunting with dad right away and we were supposed to go to Minnesota for a party but Matt couldn't get off work. It was fun seeing him! Hopefully one of these days we'll be able to go to him in Minnesota.

     I've been sick all weekend.  Which figures because Matt finally had the weekend off.  I was going to clean and do laundry and put up the Christmas tree. My fever got to 104.4 at one point.  But I feel a lot better now, no fever.  So yesterday we took my car to get fixed because the check engine light came on and I know I at least need an oil change.  Well Matt had Adrian in his car and I followed.  I thought he was going awfully slow on the highway but figured it was for my sake.  We got to the parking lot and he had a flat tire, with another one that was nearly flat.  This is the third time this has happened this year.  I think it has to do with his job and someone is messing with his car. Obviously we had to get his car fixed first. But mine should be finished by now.

Side note: Have you seen that Special K commercial where the little girl holds up sprinkled donuts and the woman slams the door in her face?  That commercial makes me want donuts, not cereal. Maybe they should re-think their strategy...

You should have let me know you were sick! Have you had a flu shot? Sorry, I know you have a mother, I just can't help it. When I see that Special K commercial, I always wonder how much the little girlis selling those donuts for, so we are definitly on the same page there.... ;)

I haven't gotten the flu shot yet, I'm not sure where to get it. Matt took care of me. That's sweet of you to say though :)
