Lauren and my parents came down around 11:30 to celebrate her birthday. We picked up pizza at Red 7 and brought it back to the house. Luke seemed to really enjoy the festivities and I think everybody else had a nice time as well. We just sort of relaxed this afternoon. I made white bean chili in the slow cooker. In a little bit I will drive up to the Mountain.
Luke didn’t wake up too early this morning, and was in a great mood when I went in to get him. Liz’s parents left after breakfast and we went to pick up bread at the farmer’s market. After that we went by Kroger. Then it was lunch time. Then nap time. For Luke, not for me, unfortunately. I went to the dump and Big Box to pick up the last of my flooring. When Luke woke up we went to the park in Spring Hill. Then the Kroger in Spring Hill, because it has stuff that the Columbia one doesn’t. We had dinner together, then I vacuumed while Liz bathed Luke. He went to bed with minimal fussing.
This morning I hauled some cedar trim from the cottage to the house. It was a bit too muddy to get as close as I would have liked, but it was good exercise. I had to go by the bank, then waited for Lowe’s to deliver the appliances. It was nice to have them come, although they do take up a bit of space. I took the interstate to Spring Hill, where I met with the insurance agent before going home. Luke was sitting on the back deck with Liz’s dad when I arrived. We read some before dinner. He was in a good mood. Everybody was pretty tired and we all went to bed early.
Luke woke up about 4:15 this morning and didn’t want to go back to sleep. He took an early nap at eleven, and Liz and I napped too, although I was unable to sleep. We had a late lunch and then went to the park. It was nice to be outside and walking around.
