My brother Seth and Lena and my nephew Henri came into town today! The first trip out here as a family. I’m still a little under the weather, so I didn’t get much time with the little squirt…but he is so friggin cute, you guys. Seriously. And he’s so charming. I’m not just saying that because he’s my nephew – he loves people. Smiling at them all the time. And then he does this little head jerk and laugh when he gets really exciting about being smiled back at. It’s the best.
I am feeling better today, which is hugely good news. Hopefully the trend continues and tomorrow I feel normal. That would a huge, huuuugggeee relief, because I have SHIT to do, y’all. And nephews to hang out with.
I woke up and dropped Liz off for her haircut in the AM, and then came home and finished setting stuff up for our out of towners. Then it was off to LAX, shoot me in the head, …but that was a portend of things to come because it was actually super easy getting down there. Driving BACK was a little less easy, but we came home and changed and then walked down the street to Mendocino Farms and had food. Then I went back to pick Liz up, came home, and we took a nap for a hot second. Seth played Skyrim out in the living room š
Then we had Poquito Mas for dinner and sat around and talked. It was good to catch up, and honestly, both Seth and Lena seem to be handling the roller coaster of parenting like champs. And Henri is just a curious and big and mobile and responsive and cute as a little button. He’s only (almost) four months old and he’s already the best kid ever. I’ve seen parents with a baby his age that look like they got hit by a Mack truck. Seth and Lena are not that. So…congrats you guys. Well done š
Coco just put her head on my leg. She’s the best dog ever. And Cooper. Obvs.
Anywho…while my symptoms were better today, I am friggin wiped the fuck out. So, it’s off to bed with me. More fun tomorrow!
