Oh What a Beautiful Morning, Oh What a Beautiful Day

I knew today was going to be good when my bladder woke me up at 2:30. Well, maybe it was a few minutes later when I checked the status of my laptop delivery and I saw that it was in Indianapolis and was scheduled to be delivered before 10:30 today. Then I went back to sleep and didn't wake up until 6:00 when Daddy got up for work and Harry woke up to eat. I'm really getting used to getting 6+ hours of sleep each night.

Just as Harry finished up eating, I heard Ollie squirming in his crib. I took the bet that I'd have enough time eat some Multi-Grain Cheerios with strawberries before he was ready to get up and I won. For once we all took turns eating in an orderly fashion and everyone was in a great mood. As is our usual routine, we headed to the love seat to cuddle and make a plan of attack for the day. As we were relaxing, I took the opportunity for Ollie to interact with Harry a little. As they faced each other, Ollie shook a toy in Harry's face. This prompted the biggest grin I've ever seen, which in turn caused Ollie to smile a somewhat toothy smile. Of course I had tears in my eyes within seconds. I had just witnessed their first true interaction. This was one amazing moment that I will NEVER forget.

After I wiped the tears it was time to get dressed and head outside to enjoy the beautiful weather. As soon as we got outside I turned on the radio and the first station that tuned in was doing Dial 'N Deal.  I wondered if this day could get any better.  And indeed it did as Harry enjoyed his first swing experience while Ollie drove his red coupe and John Deere.

After hanging for almost an hour, Grammie came by to stay with the boys so I could go pick up my laptop.  I was gone about 55 minutes and as soon as I walked in the door I cracked into the box and fired up my new Mac Book (Steve Jobs don't let me down).  

Once Grammie left, the laptop was set aside so I could tend to my guys again.  Setup would have to wait until reinforcement arrived.  Eventually Daddy did get home, but by the time we ate it was getting late and Ollie really wanted to head back outside before bed.  I guess he was concerned about working on his tractor, which is just what he did for about 20 minutes. 

By the time Ollie got a bath, Harry had a bottle, Betsy went outside, and I did two loads of laundry I'm finally finishing set up at 1:30 am.  I'm really going to be sorry in about 4 1/2 hours....zzzzzzzz
