Steph, Jeff, and Co.: Cabin Fever!

Cabin Fever!

I'm feeling a bit closed in. I know I had a great weekend, with the Temple and Michelle's visit, and Church, but I've been stuck inside ever since then, only coming out for air once to go grocery shopping yesterday. I'm trapped in this tiny apartment, and I'm dying to get out and do something different. It doesn't have to be exciting or extra special, just different! Maybe I'll convince Jeff (he's home from class now) to have us all go on an outing to the mall, or maybe he'll let me go by myself so I can stop at JoAnn's and/or Micheal's. Or maybe he and the kids can come too (I don't like to drive) and he can take Zaylee to a different store while Thomas and I head to look at crafts and fabrics. Hm, I guess my options are more varied than I thought they were. Whatever I choose, I need to do something and get out of this apartment!

Melinda said...: Hope you got to go out. I have felt that way a lot, but lately, with several appointments and going over to Aaron's parents' this weekend, I'm just content to stay in and, well, nest. Have a fun evening!; March 5, 2008 at 7:30 PM

Kiddie Quotes

This morning Zaylee came up to me carrying my purse and said, "Mommy, here's your person!"
I had just washed my hair and blown it dry. It was very, um, full of body. Zaylee looked at it and said smilingly, "You're a lion!"
We were headed to the car, and Zaylee was about to run out into the parking lot. I grabbed her dress to stop her. When I let go, she said indignantly, "Hey, what's the big idea?" I didn't even know she knew that phrase!
I was driving with Zaylee in the car yesterday and we were both being quiet. To make some conversation, I asked, "How you doin' Zaylee?" She sighed and said, "Yeah, she is so pretty." I have no idea who she was talking about.
I was putting on the movie Princess Diaries, and I told Zaylee, "This is a movie about a princess." She repeated, "This is a movie. I'm a princess."
I had the vacuum out this morning after using it last night. Zaylee found great entertainment in pulling on the hose and watching it snap back into place. As I unplugged it and started putting it away, she said such things as: "You wanna pull on macuum, Mommy?" "Bye bye, macuum, have a good nap!" and, as I was putting it away in its closet, "I love you, macuum!" while making a kissing noise. How funny!
Zaylee mimics just about everything we say, though often makes mistakes in pronunciation. Today I offered her a cracker, saying, "Here, have a soda cracker." She took it and said, "Yeah, a super cracker!"
Jeff and Zaylee were playing on the floor. Wanting him to get up, she said emphatically, "Daddy, stand BOP!"
This morning Zaylee came into the kitchen where I was making breakfast. She was blowing very energetically in and out through her nose. I asked what she was doing, to which she replied, "I'm glowing!"
