It's Saturday

and I am obsessed with my new mobile. The giraffe is so cute! Red, with green spots and a purple ruff. Big old bug eyes. It plays music from three classical composers. I really like the Bach-- it's Prelude in C Major, and it sounds really restful. I installed in the other day on one of the babies' cribs (I'm planning on making them share, cause these things aren't cheap and I thought two mobiles going at once, with competing songs, would be really really annoying.) But I adore this thing!!

Later, we get to try to figure out how the hell to put the car seats (pictured there-- aren't they cute?) in the car properly. These things need to be done before the babies get here, and I tried the other day and it was hard!! I can't understand the instructions in the manual well enough, and while it ought to be easy, it just doesn't seem to fit properly in my car. So now that Andrew is home (yay!) he has to put is Y chromosome to work and see if he can do it. Then we go to the fire-department to make sure we did it right.

Our friends all went to the Texas Folk Life Festival-- but I have major issues with going to outdoor "folk" events in the middle of freakin' summer in Texas when you literally could fry an egg on the sidewalk, to eat meat on a stick that costs four bucks and drink crappy beer around a lot of other people walking around, doing the same thing. Even when I'm not pregnant. So we didn't get invited to go with (not complaining about this-- happy happy!!) But later, Indian food and a movie. Woo-hoo!

So see what an exciting weekend one can have once one is in a breedy way?
