Update!

Oh the randomness… So much going on. I know I'm forgetting some stuff, but here are a few things.

• Found a mystery note in the ladies room at work. It was in the seat covers. It was like 3 back and the box was not tampered with. See here:

Ok weird, right? Luckily I work somewhere that you can find someone who can read, speak, write code to any language. So… we find out that this is traditional Chinese and it is explaining how horrible the prison conditions are and that they are forced to eat spoiled food. WHAT!?!? Now, I’m concerned. Everyone we asked said that there isn’t a location on it. We have some suspicions so we are getting a 3^rd opinion. I’ll keep you posted.

• The baby starts school in 3 weeks. AGHAAGHAGHAHG!! He will go 3 days a week starting August 29^th. I’m not gonna lie – I’m a nervous wreck.

• We need a new bed. It has hit an all time low. We wake up every single morning hurting. It is miserable. Any suggestions on a good bed?

• John has wanted to become friends with a hawk forever. Yes, you read that right. My husband is like Ace Ventura. He installed a “Hawk House”. He went to a bird auction and got pigeons for hawks to eat. He built a pigeon coop for them to live. This has been going on for a long time. Finally, last Friday he made friends with a hawk. He is so happy.

(Yes, he of course let it go after the photo sesh).

• I have been reading about how wonderful coconut oil is lately. I got some earlier this week and so far, so good. The guy at Clarks (our local health food storel) told me how great it was and that he has been eating some everyday for a long time. He looked about 45. He was 60. You can eat it, rub it on your skin, it’s pretty great. I’ve been making John eat some with me every day. He's a good sport.

• While at Clark’s I got some Kumbucha. It's... interesting.

• Last week I thought the baby had a ear infection. He woke up screaming and pulling both ears all night. I call the Ped first thing in the morning. We get in. No ear infection, he is getting molars. They were “erupting” she said. One was even bleeding. Poor dude. Since we were there, we ended up giving him his 4^th vaccine of the Dtap & HIB. He should be all set for school now. She had him stand on the big boy scale. THE BIG BOY scale. Can you believe that? My little (29.6lbs) 17 month old on the big boy scale????

• We also went to San Diego for the weekend... Had a great time.

I know I'm forgetting a lot of other stuff. We have had playdates, concerts, friends over and the baby is growing up at an alarming rate. His vocabulary is growing all the time, he has molars now and a full on mullet. :) Oh, and Lando ran away again....
