party

well the good news is my house is clean. bad news is i'm exhausted from cleaning and from being social.
i helped a friend of our's and hosted a party for her business at my home. the stuff isn't amazing and a little pricey. i guess i am too much of a bargain shopper. the baskets would be useful though. nice to have a few folks over - mostly gals from work and only one of my new neighbors even though i'd invited lots of my new bunco friends. i swore i wouldn't have any activities at my home until we painted - everything is such a blah color. but since it's almost been a year since we moved and still no paint i had to give in. the food was easy - had leftover fruit cut up and fruit dip - i had brought it to Bunco on Tuesday of this week. also had amish friendship bread (thanks - brenda) made into a nice bundt cake. the party was at 1030 so no real food was required:)
joe took the boys for a few hours (nice to have my house so quite). he ended up having to take o back to urgent care - he still has his rash on his boy parts. turns out we were on track with it being a yeast infection so continuing with the anti-fungal cream - hate that i have to say that about an 11 month old precious little boy. he also has another ear infection (the original instigator of this rash business) - they gave us samples of antibiotics for the next ten days. kudos to dad for handling 2 little guys at urgent care for 2 hours on a busy saturday - then tackling walmart to fill what we thought was a prescription for o's antifungal cream but turns out it was just the over the counter equate stuff i had purchased on thursday - thanks for the tip j!
anyway we are all on the mend. joe and i ordered pizza last night and watched flicka - nice movie but i just am not crazy about horses but good story.
now daddy is off finishing the install of his current cabinet job and should be home by noon for a costco outing - what fun. i can't wait for the 4 of us to go do something together - it's been a lot of split parenting lately - i hate that tag team feeling. divide and conquer doesn't work for too long with me - i prefer the group approach to parenting. weather permitting daddy has softball practice this afternoon - maybe we will all attend???
