Back from Regina

We had a good visit in Regina with Gramma Jo and Grampa Phil, Auntie Jen and Uncle Paul.

This has been a super short week, in part because we only came back on Tuesday but also because I am taking tomorrow off to see all my doctors in one day - it has been difficult to get all the appointments on the same day, but I think this is the simplest way to get some much-needed stuff out of the way, eye exams, etc.

Chance has been doing OK at his new day care for these last 2 days. Every day he gets a report card, so we know how many diapers he used (today they circled and underlined "BM" at his 11:30 diaper, must have been impressive), when he slept (nearly 3 hours today, wow), what and how much he ate (it's always lots), what he did (played outside, coloured, etc.). Also they do arts and crafts at this place, and Chance made a gift for me for Mother's Day, just have to wait until Sunday to open it.

Cam cooked supper tonight while Chance and I made a run to the local dry cleaners to pick up a Sears order I put in. They had cute little sweatshirt/sweatpant suits for $6, so I got 2 for Chance, as well as a golf shirt for Cam. Supper was good, Chance ate as much as I did -- pizza, it's not unusual for him to pig out on pizza. After he was finished dinner he enjoyed one of Gramma Jo's pumpkin cranberry cookies. After we got all cleaned up we settled in for an episode of Thomas the Train. Well, some of us settled in, others danced around and hoot-hooooooted loudly.

We are having dinner guests over for supper on Saturday as it is our turn to host our potluck dinner club meal. Our theme is "my favorite recipe". So far the menu is a pecan-spinach salad, mashed potatoes and gravy with rosemary garlic pork roast with yorkshire puddings, and a mystery dessert, as the guy bringing dessert says he has nine favorite dessert recipes and needs some time to decide.
