* The weather has been lovely lately. I've been slowly introducing the dude to the Great Outdoors, meaning the area outside his stroller. He's become accustomed to being conveyed in his litter above and around all things wild, so being plopped into a field of grass is a big new experience for him. It's so adorable to see him there, with his hands held gingerly out to his sides, as if he's just been placed in the middle of a freshly painted floor. When he does decide to move, it's with haste, as fast as he can crawl towards the nearest paved surface, and away from the Nature. He's getting a bit better with it, but still mostly sticks with sorting rocks he finds and pulling at nearby bushes. Oh, and crawling in and out the front door. repeatedly. There's a concrete step there, as well as the door itself to negotiate, so of course he loves that.
* I received my first official piece of mum jewelry today, a little dude fingerprint in a silver heart pendant. I couldn't resist getting one, and the price wasn't bad at all. It turned out really well.
* I've also signed up as a seller in the upcoming Nearly New Sale (the secondhand childrens clothing/ toy sales I've mentioned before.) I'll also be volunteering at the sale, and I'm sure we'll be buying stuff again, but we've definitely got to make room by selling some of the old stuff.
* The dude's tongue is healing with astonishing speed. I actually went to take a photo of it the day after, and even then it was significantly improved over the day before.
* In related news, my own tongue has finally started to get a bit of feeling/taste back to it after my wisdom tooth extraction. It still feels like I've just had Novocain, though, and talking feels very weird.
* Most of our prenatal group got together today. It's amazing how big all the babies have gotten!
