Marnie actually left the house on a Friday night!

Well, I actually had a social engagement on Friday. I'm not sure if it counts since we took Ryan with us, but he is so good that you hardly notice he's there. My big night out was that Diane and I went to Merle Hay Mall. We got a lot of shopping done and then we went to La Hacienda for supper. I even had a margarita! and had something besides fajitas. I had the carne asada, which is basically fajitas without the peppers and onions. It was very good. We didn't get back to my house until 8:30. Ryan was good as gold shopping and at the restaurant, which is typical (I'm very lucky), but I was a little surprised because he missed his 4:30 bottle and 6:00 jars (2) of baby food, and his 8:00 bottle. I tried to feed him at the mall, but he was too busy looking around.

Yesterday I sort of relaxed and Ryan and I went to WalMart. We only got stopped by three admirers, and he slept the entire time. I got two $5 floribunda roses, so I was very happy. I had the carseat and four big rubbermaids in the cart, so by the time I got to the checkout, I was pushing with one hand and carrying three boxes of cereal in the other! I always get the weirdest and slowest clerks. This time my clerk was deaf and couldn't speak, so you had to write down any questions. That didn't bother me at all, but apparently he wasn't familiar with fruits and vegetables. He handed everyone in his line the cheat sheet the clerks have with the pictures, and we had to point out which fruits and vegetables we had. I didn't know tomatoes where so confusing!

Today I was going to take Ryan to church, but I woke up with one eye glued shut. I now have pink eye in the other eye! Whoo-hoo! I spent the rest of the day cleaning and doing laundry.

Tomorrow is a big day. It is Ryan's checkup at the cardiologist's. I am not too worried about the cardiologist, but Todd is wondering if Ryan will be able to play sports with his heart murmur. We shall see how it goes. I bet he doesn't lie as still during the echocardiogram as he did the last time (he was six weeks old then)! He will have to have another chest x-ray too, which bothers me because he just had one when he had pneumonia.
