We went up to NE Ohio to celebrate Uncle Mike's Big 4-0 on Saturday. Wm had the time of his life on the trampoline (even though it took some years off mine watching him) and running around with Andrew. On the way home, he wanted Math Challenges. He got to such high numbers that Steve said he was probably better at math than I am. So...it became Mommy vs. William. Sadly, I pretty much lost. Wm can add two 2-digit numbers in his head faster than I can. Even sadder, when Wm wants Math Challenges when Steve isn't around, I have to use the calculator on my phone to get the answer before he does so I can tell him if he's right. Wm finds this endlessly amusing. Also, he was WIDE AWAKE the entire drive home...then fell asleep at 10:15, when we were 10 minutes from home - and it was POURING rain. Luckily, even though he woke up on the way in, he went right back to sleep in his bed! And slept in until nearly 8:30 this morning - wooooooha!
I *may* be a bit hormonal. So I had this conversation with Steve just now...
Steve: [quietly humming to himself as he flips through something on the couch]
Me: You don't think I'm pretty anymore, DO YOU?
Steve: [sigh] Of course I do.
Me: NO YOU DON'T!!!!!
Steve: Good lord. You are in a mood. When are you going to head into the Red Tent?
Me: DON'T MOCK ME!!!
Steve: You are acting like a teenager today...seeking negative attention, acting out.
Me: I know. It can't be helped. [pause] IT'S BECAUSE YOU THINK I'M FAT, ISN'T IT?
On the plus side, I think Steve gave Wm a bath tonight just to escape me. So now I have time to peruse The Internets at my leisure.
