Pink Thoughts

A 2 day week this week.

Workwise, all is well. My boss was nice enough to thank us for our role in improving things which lead to his promotion. I think he'll still look after us when all is said and done and offer us chances to shine :)

Alan's started watching Sesame Street in the AM again (because the TV was left on PBS after Thomas was on Sunday morning). I don't like the new opening this music this year. Today's show had Tim McGraw and Faith Hill on - they are such a cute couple.

I did see the article about the old shows - I figured at some point they'd put Sesame Street on DVD for nostalgia - but it was rather silly of them to say maybe not for today's preschoolers and their needs. It's not going to hurt them.

Gymboree sent me a coupon in the mail - they must have rented the right mailing list - I like the new stuff for boys. I had to wrestle it from my DH (he was afraid I'd spend too much).

Alan and I were playing tonight - making a race track out of blocks, playing (or trying to) Cootie and some other stuff. He really plays so much more without TV (he lost it due to an #2 accident, yet again). I also want to keep him off video games (aka Noggin.com) before bed - he gets wound up from it.

And why is it whenever I try to meet up with the local mom's group I found (nice bunch of mostly SAHM's) - they are busy and when I am busy or working, they are free - at least we can make the party we are having on 12/1. (But now I may have make or bring cookies for a swap - 1/2 dozen x 11 people! - does anyone have quick, easy ideas?)
