Terrible horrible no good very bad day!

I will try to keep this short:

Aho got a job he goes to at 4:30 in the morning. Had to get a bike. Yesterday morning, riding to work, he realizes his pedal fell off. Goes back three blocks and finds the pedal. (It wasn't just the pedal, it was the bar connected to it...I guess he was coasting and enjoyed feeling the wind beneath his toes...) Had to walk the rest of the way to work.

His boss then decides she will take him and his bike home since the pedal is disconnected. I took James to work with me, and when Aho said he was at home, I then ran James home. Aho decides he needs the car for whatever reasons, so he brings me back to work. I got out, go to kiss James goodbye, Aho thinks I had closed the door and he starts driving away. My foot happened to be in the way of the tire and he starts driving over my foot. I yell at him to wait. He stops. I tell him to back up. He doesn't, back up, I keep yelling. He turns the car off. I say, why are you turning the car off. The car is on my foot BACK UP!!! He, in a fit of confusion, fumbles with the keys and turns the car on and backs up. I, a little upset, tell him he probably just broke my foot, I didn't get to kiss James because I was a little frustrated, and close the door, hobble off. Aho watching the whole way. He feels bad and calls me after and asks me if I want to go to the dr. I say no, I will be ok.

He calls me later and tells me he is going to S.L. to go see a friend in town. I tell him, I can't walk home and I am done at 4. So, I HAD to leave work early, and I went to Salt Lake with them. James was not happy, he had been in the car too long. We had lunch at Denny's. That was the closest place and James was screaming.

We go home, and I check the mail. Still no tax refund from Utah or Hawaii. What's the hold up! Realize we have to take movies back to redbox, and get James diapers. I go, with my sore foot, Aho stays home with James. James was hungry. Aho wasn't happy. Feed James when I get home. Put him to bed.

He doesn't want to go to bed. Is up until 10:30, force him to sleep. (He did sleep really well last night, after I got him to sleep. It may the squash in his tummy...he loves them!)

Aho's alarm goes off at 4:30. I wake up. Aho knocks on the door a few minutes after leaving. The chain fell off the bike (do you see a reacurring theme with the bike...it is brandnew! I think I need to take it back!) Aho takes the car, I will walk to work.

I lay awake. Aho comes back and says he doesn't have to go. He left his phone in the car, and she had been trying to call him all night. I still lay awake. I guess I went back to sleep as my alarm was going off. Didn't get up until 7:40, when I should be at work by 7! What a day. Hopefully today is better.

Here are some pics of my foot:

The upside of this is James. He is super fun. His favorite thing right now is to hang upside down and watch us walking around. He talks all the time. And I love this outfit. Not a fan of overalls, or camo, so when Aho got this, I thought, I will never put him in this, but then Aho dressed him today (He was taking him to work and didn't care much for the other outfit I had put him in!) The orange! Its all very cute!

And then last night, I heard the story of the guy who locked his daughter in the cellar and had 7 kids with her...nasty...just end my day hearing that kind of garbage, not a great day!

More James

Since I really have nothing to post about, except for sperm drenched burritos, I thought I would post more pics of my baby.

It's not my blog anymore

The other day, I was looking at Kaitlyns blog and was linking to the friends on the side, and then found several others there. I was showing Aho and he decided that he wanted to make comments on others blogs, so, instead of making his own, he decided we would share. I doubt he will ever post, but you may see posts by Aho now and again.

One Sperm Burrito, comin' right up

The other day, at work, Aho mentions that he loves Beto's, or now known as Rancheritos. His co-worker tells him that last year sometime, a customer found sperm in his burrito. Apparently a family, maybe two brothers, put sperm in a burrito. Aho is not sure if they knew the customer, or what, but for some reason they wanted to put sperm in someone's burrito. Can you imagine taking a big bite of a california burrito and finding some kind of nasty mucus in there! Gross! They all got fired, of course, but why would anyone want to eat there again, knowing what has happened in this chain of restaurants. (Sorry for any of you Beto's lovers!)

(I tried to search this online, and only got bad things, so I didn't want to search anymore. If anyone finds it, please let me know!)

Flocker

I just downloaded a new browser today and it seems to do some pretty cool things.  For instance, there is a link that says "Post to My Blog" and I clicked on it, and it opened a window, and then will post to my blog.  I am actually testing that right now to see if it works, but this new browser seems to be pretty cool.

Blogged with the Flock Browser

I finally changed my background

I spent a few minutes this morning changing my background. Thanks to the link on Elizabeth's blog, I found some cute backgrounds with super easy instructions. (I have never taken the time to figure it out, but now, I know and it is EASY!) I also added some friend links (if I didn't add you and you want me to, let me know, if I did add you and you don't want me to, I can take you off!) As I was adding the links, I noticed Leah had the same background as I do. I chose it because I could smell the plumeria as I was looking at it. So, sorry Leah, I am going to keep it for a few days.
Sometimes I miss Hawaii, the great smells, the clean air. Monday I went for a jog, and the air was so dirty I had grit in my socks and hair and mouth. NASTY!!! I was running around the temple, so it's not like I was on a dirt road or anything. Where does this garbage come from?!?

Good eats

As promised, here are the pics of James. He loves eating!
James is now rolling over. He doesn't do it much, but he has done it 4 times now. He can hold himself up pretty good.
He can hold his sippy cup pretty good. He doesn't know yet that he needs to suck to get something out of it, but its a start. He does like to chew on it, as he does everything else!
I love the highchair! It's one that sits on a chair so it doesn't take much room, and it converts to a booster. He seems to enjoy it too. He is super excited to eat. He loves it!
Here is our bathroom. It was green before, but we decided we wanted something different. You may be thinking, what about the rest of the bathroom. No, this is it. Basically, we both don't fit in it at the same time! Love on campus living!

My Much Anticipated Return

Many of you are wondering, no new post since March 18th? Almost a month?!? Here's Kim and Kaitlyn who can do 2 or 3 posts a day, I and don't do one for a month? Well, here is what I have been up to.
Since my last post, we were nearing our "Go-live" at work. That means, PeopleSoft will now be live and people will actually be using it. We did go-live on March 27th. I worked about 13 hours of over-time for those two weeks. It was crazy. Poor James. Luckily, I was able to work all my overtime hours at home. I told my boss, that I would not work more than my 40 hours away from home, so they approved me to work at home. Things went rather well for the beginning, but I am now working (diligently, even tho I am posting at work!) to the next phases of the project. Fun times!
Work has been crazy busy and I haven't had much time to do anything else. You see, I usually update my blog and look at others while at work. I don't like to do it after work, because I want to spend the time with my little James. I don't want him to feel like he has to compete with the computer, so I never touch the thing after work. (Unless I am ordering Papa Johns or Cafe Rio online. I love the internet!) So, to all you who were expecting a comment on their blogs, I can now do so, for a few minutes a day. It's nice to not be so busy that I can use work time for personal time! (Bad me, I do justify it, however, by saying it is my break!)
I got the flu last week. Crazy, nasty flu. I woke up Monday morning with a gurgling tummy, by the time I got out of the shower, I felt like death warmed over. I got back in bed and didn't get out except to run to the toilet. Aho would bring James to me and we would nurse in bed, I was even too weak to hold him. It was nasty. It took me all week to get over it. The good thing is, I lost about 5 pounds with it!
Friday, I started feeling nasty again, thinking I was getting a cold, Kim tells me it could be allergies, well, lucky me, it is. I have never felt allergy season before. Why now? It stinks. I have no energy, my nose and head are always stuffy, and I want to lay down all day. But alas, I cannot, so I just trudge through it.
Saturday Aho and I finally got out to go run some errands (and spend some much needed time together) that we needed to. The highlights: we got a high chair and feeding stuff for James and we decided to change our bathroom. So, I spent the rest of Saturday (while I was locked up at home while Aho had the car at work) cleaning and updating my bathroom. You see, James now wants to sleep all the time. What's up with that. So, while he did that on Saturday, I cleaned our apartment, especially the bathroom. James is now taking baths in the big boy bathtub, because he is too big for the infant one, and I had to clean that good. Aho was afraid he would get a skin fungus, since I have cleaned it in months (how embarrasing to admit!) But, it looks good now, I will have to post pics of my new bathroom.
Finally, we started James on rice cereal Sunday. He loved it. He couldn't get enough. We have pics of that too, so I will post those when I get them downloaded.
So, basically, I have been up to nothing. My life is boring. James is growing so much, that I like to spend all my spare time with him so I don't miss anything. (He is rolling over now, and I did happen to be there for the first time. I saw it twice before Aho did, he was jealous!)
Oh, we did buy our ticket to Tonga. I am excited, but can you say, chhaching! It was super expensive. Thank you Pres Bush for the stimulus package. Even tho it will put the country more in debt, it helped me pay for the astronomically expensive airline tickets!
I am glad it is nicer weather outside and James and I can start going on our runs again. I am going to run the Susan G Komen cure for cancer 5k with Sheila (my sis). So, I am trying to get ready for that. Doing good so far. I am glad James likes the stroller. It makes it much easier.
Ok, this has gone on way too long, and I want a donut (do i put the 5 lbs back on and get one?TBD). Pics later.
