Home Alone

Abbey is gone for the weekend to Washington to see a dentist and finally finish the process of getting her dental implant. That means that me and the boys have a weekend here alone. Whenever I have them for a full day, or several in this case, it doesn't take long to begin appreciate everything that Abbey does with seaming ease. In the lull of the late afternoon, when I had already done everything I could think of to entertain us, we pulled out the popcorn popper and let it overflow onto a blanket while watching a movie. Before you think I am that creative, Abbey came up with the idea several weeks ago and Ben suggested repeating it today. They loved it though - something about having a floor covered in popcorn and then eating it all. We also went to the library this morning where we ran into 3 wives of 3rd year medical students. I had to laugh at myself standing there chatting with these moms in the children's section.

*Abbey here-before you think I'm that creative, I actually saw the idea while blog surfing. But thanks Honey, for thinking me capable of such a fun activity.
