Mundane Monday

This year has started out nice so far. Friday I was able to leave Baby J with Daddy Piper and take S and get haircuts. It was a lesson in reality though after talking with our hairdresser. Her husband lost his job about 2 months ago and they have been really struggling. She usually only does hair on a very part time schedule and is now trying to get extra hours but they just aren't there. It's a really tough economy right now. Makes me very thankful for Daddy Piper's steady work, although it wasn't so steady a year or so ago. Saturday we were supposed to go my sister's house for our Christmas celebration but that was nixed since I had to take Baby J back to the dr for a checkup. His breathing seemed labor due to congestion. The dr said he was fine but just keep him near a humidifier to help open things up. We stayed down here just in case things took a turn. He is much better now.

Daddy Piper doesn't have work today due to the rain we've had over the last day or so. He's been home a full 2 weeks now. It has been nice having him home. We have really taken advantage of his time off. I need to go get groceries and take some stuff back to Lowe's. L & S are staying home with Daddy to play on their playground. I was supposed to take Baby J to get his 3 month pictures but after last night's lack of sleep, I just don't feel like it.

Off to get something done!
