Torture

I think today should be officially called Torture Thursday.

First of all Suzie woke us up at 5:45am. Not that unusual but the volume this morning was unreal. It was like the chickie had just shotgunned a quart of 5 Hour Energy shots. Unreal. So imagine a hyper, loud, fully awake toddler in your face starting at 5:45 AM and talking non-stop.

Amanda and her friend (not sure what approval level I have to discuss her life and friends) were coming over so Suzie decided that she would wait outside for them. She found a great stick full of dead leaves and decided to remove all the leaves right outside the front door.

Seriously - I don't think she could have tortured Zach anymore if she had tried. Wait - was she trying? Is she so diabolical that she would torture her poor defenseless brother? Hmmmm

After Amanda arrived Suzie decided that she was terrified of Amanda's friend. She would not even look in friend's direction. She is so goofily scared/she of random things. I hope Suz eventually relaxed. I wouldn't know because *I* went out by myself!!

That's right - I went out to lunch with a girlfriend - with ZERO children!!! To prove I was wild and crazy I even ordered a drink - with alcohol in it!
Thankfully they were running late in the restaurant because I ordered my drink at 11:50 but did not get it until 12:02pm. Phew - I was almost trashy there for a moment! So I had a great time catching up with my friend and just being able to have a meal without any little finger around.

To end my alone time I decided to go to Walmart. As I was quickly trying to get some shopping done (I had 30 minutes to shop because I needed to get home before David left for work) I spotted the most divine item I have ever seen. I swear I heard angels singing...
This product was clearly designed with Zach in mind. Heck even the woman on the cover looks just like me! ;) Diapers without any tab for Zach to grab! I was able to put a diaper on him without wanting to duct tape his  hands to the changing table! They are just like Pull-Ups - only diapers. GENIUS!!!!

So now I wait for David to get home. My last bit of torture? Having to wait for him to get home before I can have a Magnum ice-cream bar.



(BTW - Amanda's friend was very nice! I was impressed by them!)
