March Madness? March Mediocrity more like. And I'm NOT talking basketball. It just been kinda a slow month here. Not much going on, but I set a goal to blog more often, so bear with me as I struggle to come up with interesting things to talk about.
He turned a quarter of a century old on March 2nd. For his birthday he got a new laptop. He always ends up picking out his own gifts and they are always something big enough that he doesn't get any other gifts at least not from 'me'. So it is pretty easy cause then I don't have to think of something to get him. For his party he had a LAN party. There was 15 guys over and they all played LoL mostly, some Team Fortress. And a few guys were playing some fighting game... Street Fighter or Tekken or something similar. Went ALL night til 6am the next morning! But it was a good time had by all. Oh and because I just like to show that I do occasionally use ideas I find on Pinterest... I made these for the party. Jake loved them and I'm pretty sure ate more than half of them himself, which is fine since it is his birthday. Also, because he doesn't like cake, I made him birthday brownies, with nuts!
Some recent Evan feats: drinking from a straw, waving bye-bye, the sign for "all done", matches the shapes in his shape sorter toys, and understands the door knob is to open doors so he reaches up to it when he wants the door open. I'm sure there are a few other little ones, but those are the only ones I can think of right now. It just surprises me how quick it happens, like one day he doesn't do something and then all the sudden he is doing it.
My dad got me into penny bidding. He has been doing it for a while now and wins a bunch of stuff. So I finally broke down and tried it out. It is kinda gambling I guess... but so far I've spent $75 and won $125 in giftcards, a webcam, a pack of 20 AA batteries, and a bottle of OPI nail polish. Not the most exciting thing to win batteries but hey can always use them, right? I think as long as I come out ahead its worth it. Not like some people I know who went to Wendover and spent $130 and lost it all... sigh. Anyway hopefully my luck continues. Well that is pretty much all I can think of to say, so until next time...
See this big crazy mug below? .
