Smunday

Today was Smunday.   It was technically Monday, but the day behaved like it was Sunday.   The children were out of school and we didn't have much to do, save hanging around the house in our pajamas for a large portion of the morning.  

My children got to eat their favorite weekend breakfast foods and there was a good bit of television that was on.   My son got cranky because the television was on too long, requesting it be turned off, but then when it was off, he wanted to watch more of the rescue pups show that was on.  

I didn't know what the rescue pups show was, but from the bit he saw of it he had absorbed the characters names and talked about them for the rest of the day.   I now know why advertising targeted at children is so successful.

Tomorrow will be Muesday.  It will be Tuesday, but it's going to feel like Monday as we all go back to our regularly-scheduled weekday routine.

The Big Boy Update:  My son has some allergies and he knows it from just the few interactions he's had.   It only took one time putting a cat bed on his head and he will tell you straight up he's allergic to cats.   He must be also allergic to mold spores like I am too because after playing with various things at the Scrap Exchange and touching his face, his eyes got terribly puffy and itchy.   Sorry for passing on my allergies to you, little guy.

The Tiny Girl Chronicles:  At a follow-up visit to the plastic surgeon about my daughter's chin wound, we talked about maybe needing a surgical correction after the wound has healed for six months.  It was hard to tell at first because there was a lot of abrasion around the cut, but it's easy to see the jaggedness of the scar line now.   It's not under her chin, it's right on the front as well.   We won't know what needs to be done until it's fully healed and that's fine for now.   We're scar reducing cream with SPF on it for now as it heals and fades out.
