Rose got her first black eye this week. While playing chase, she stumbled and fell eye-first into the edge of the coffee table. That is one spectacular eye. It was ironic because in that giant empty room, she had to fall right on the one sharp piece of furniture.

Johnny Bravo hair, post-run.

I haven’t worn a ponytail in 5 months! Only two months after my last haircut, it was high time for another one this week (ahem, pun intended). Now I’m back down to my oh-so-easy pixie. I should’ve taken a picture of the stiff, fume-y- spikeydoo that my hairgirl loves to coif, but I forgot.

We ordered a table and chairs from overstock.com this week, and the chairs have come already. Jeff carefully assembled all 6 of them with Jay’s…gloved assistance.

Nice work, boys.

It was a bit risky to order furniture without seeing it in person, but it was such a good deal, and they turned out to be better than I thought. How rare! Once the matching table comes, we’ll say adios to ole white-n-gold forever. This is big, folks—I ate dinner at that table when I was little. I love how these chairs look in our kitchen already (they hide that dear old table quite nicely), and in spite of their woodiness, they are actually smooth and comfy.

Jay and Rose love the chair-boxes.

They each have their own box-airplane/boat, but it’s sweet how they prefer to adventure together.

Rose is starting to put words together every now and then. The other day she startled me by saying “mo, bee!” (more please) when she finished her food. She is also getting pretty handy with a spoon and open-top cup (although the potential for flying milk still has me putting lids on her drinks most of the time). She calls Jay “Day” and she even says day-doo for thank you.

It was a read-o-rama today. Do you see C3PO?

Jay was reading a story to him.
