High Chair Frustration, Saucer Sensation

Isaac and his brother Josh went to Idaho yesterday morning for a football league meeting. They're on the road back home right now and he should be here any minute. Thank goodness, I miss my husband! I had to sleep alone last night and that's never fun for me.

Today Phoenix and I went out for a drive and I decided to stop and look for a high chair, since he's eating food often enough to need one now. We picked out a high chair together (well, Phoenix didn't really say much but he was there with me!) and we also got what I call a saucer- it's the thing babies sit in and can spin around with lots of toys to play with. It's like a walker without wheels, and this one is bouncy so he can jump. While Phoenix took his afternoon nap, I attempted to assemble his high chair and saucer. Boy, was I wishing Isaac was home to do it for me! He usually puts together this kind of stuff, and I didn't think there would be so many little screws and plastic pieces to put together. It took a lot longer than I thought it would, and I had to pray for patience throughout the process (literally). In the end, I was proud of myself for figuring it out on my own and I was happy to have something to do, since Isaac wasn't home to goof around with me (we love to play hide-and-seek. I am the best hider!).

Right now Phoenix is sleeping and I'll be hitting the hay after I finish writing this. I hope everyone reading this is doing well, and since I think most of you reading this also have a new baby, I hope motherhood is as great of a blessing to you as it is to me.
