Asian women....and rubber ducks?
are simply lovely.
Luke, Ivan, and my lovely self went to Tea Leaf II tonight. It was DELICIOUS, and our server/hostess/whatever her title was..she was lovely. Ivan was alright until our food arrived, but then started getting a little fussy. Our waitress came over and scooped him up, and I wasn't really totally freaked out. She walked around with him a little bit and he was completely content. Crazy how sometimes babies just want something besides mommy. It upset me that I couldn't make him happy, but it was funny how she was so great with him, and how he was so at home in her arms.
It did freak me out that as much of a protective mama bear I am..I wasn't as freaked out by her taking him. That, my friends...freaked me out. I mean, I had a guy at church take him one morning and pretty much refuse to give him back, and I was very upset with the whole ordeal..but this time was different for some reason. I was freaked out at the fact that I wasn't as freaked out as I thought I would be. Make sense?
Now, I think that everyone needs to go check out Injera and Chocolate Gravy, and tell them I sent you! They're a family who already had 4 kids, and then adopted 3 more precious babies from Ethiopia. I would LOVE to be able to do this, and maybe one day I'll be so blessed as to be able to do it.
Right now, we've got our friend John Hendricks (who better comment on this..yes, I'm threatening) and his two boys over. His youngest is playing this ninja panda video game...I'm not sure I'm ready for Ivan to grow up and play this crap. Lucky for me, Ivan is happy lounging around in his Hooters onesie, drooling on everything that comes near his mouth.
I guess since we're past Christmas, I should say a little about it, as well. Luke got a beer making kit along with a few other things, I got my favorite movie, The Sound of Music, and some more items that made me happy. Ivan got lots of great toys, and we ended up also fostering a dog, Teddy.
Oh, and there's a new rubber duckie out that I want. That is all.

Okay, so you know the feeling that you get right before you give into your addiction? If you don't, then let me tell you...it's amazing. Like, you know you probably shouldn't do it..but you can't help it? I used to get that feeling all the time. Like when I was constantly getting tattoos. Or like when I smoked. I would always feel jittery right before I did either one, just filled with this crazy anticipation...
I haven't smoked a cigarette in almost 2 years..and I also haven't gotten a tattoo since 4th of July 2009. But I still get the jitters every once in awhile- like when I buy cloth diapers. Yes, cloth diapers.
Tonight I bought my first BSRB diaper, which stands for Bagshot Row Bamboo. I've wanted one since we started using cloth, but never had a chance to get one, as they would all sell before I could get to them. Tonight, when Luke was hitting the "pay" button...I got that feeling again. It really took me by surprise, because I mean..it's a diaper. But there I was, getting antsy right before we bought it..and then the payment went through. I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Don't get me wrong, I'll still partake in some hookah every now and again, and I'm counting down the days until I get my next tattoo (which will be a sea turtle with Ivan's initials somewhere on it..) but it's been so long since I had "the feeling." It was awesome.
