Random Things on a Thursday

I was getting ready to leave for t-ball practice last night and the battery in the Jeep was dead. It wouldn't have bothered me so much except all the t-ball equipment is with me... So T had to come home (instead of straight to the field after work) and pick up everything and take D. There really wasn't anything I could do about it, but I still felt bad because they were late. So I made cookies for them.

I started making my turkey BLTs in wrap form. The spinach and herb wraps are the best. Unfortunately I ran out of bacon and ranch dressing yesterday. It's just not the same.

Speaking of bacon. Check out this flowchart that Dwija posted yesterday.

Sometimes keeping a two year old entertained at D's t-ball games is difficult. Usually I bring lots of snacks, a drink and some sort of toys. She ends up trying to run away after a few minutes. On Monday I brought the little bottles of bubbles that the kids got in their Easter baskets. I spent quite a few minutes struggling to keep Rose in a defined space (on the picnic blanket I had) until I remembered the bubbles. We took a short walk and both kids were occupied for the last inning simply blowing bubbles and I got to watch D bat, run the bases and score a run!

I was asking Rose what color certain things were over the weekend and we started with something yellow. Now she asks if everything is "yayow". I was getting her dressed and put a green shirt on her and she asked, "Is this yayow?" and I said no it was green. Instead of her accepting that she tried to take it off while saying, "No! I don't want this! I want yayow!" Well... apparently I pass up every item of yellow clothing because she has zero "yayow" in her closet.

I drank half a gallon of water yesterday. That's kind of a big deal for me.
