Movie Night

Three generations of DeLapp girls went to see "New Moon" tonight. First of all, the audience, including my daughter, was as entertaining as the movie. Grown women were swooning over "Jacob" and Lily would then audibly ask why they did that.:-) The movie itself was so much better than the first. I had read book 2 & 3 together, so I couldn't remember where the movie was going to leave us hanging...and they did. Definitely a girls night movie, no husbands allowed.

Senility

I've had my flaky moments, but lately I've really lost "it". Earlier this week I was driving home, stopped at red light and turned to look at Nate. His seat was unbuckled and empty! Panic set in! I thought I had forgotten to buckle him in. I called to him. No answer. Where was he? Did I leave him somewhere? Could he get out on his own? I thought about getting out right there to see where he was hiding. Even with my heart pounding, I decided to get out of traffic first. Before I could follow through, my mind returned & I realized that he was safe at HOME! (with Lily) Needless to say, It took a while for my pulse to return to normal.
Today Isaac, Nate, Lily, and I left the house to drive in the rain to the bus stop to get Sam and Eli before we left to run errands. Lily said she would take the trash can around and then meet us at the bus stop. I retrieved Sam and Eli, and then drove off. Lily, now locked out of the house, went to the neighbors to call me on my cell. I didn't even know I was missing her until the call:
Ring, ring, ring (hmmm, I don't recognize that #)
Alright, "Hello?"
Lily- "Mom, why did you leave me?"

What happens when I really lose my mind?

Lost in facebook

I sat down at the computer with the intent to post about the latest DeLapp family adventures, but made a pit stop over at facebook. That was about 2 hours ago. Oops! No wonder I only get on facebook once in a blue moon. Now I'm too tired to post about anything else. I'll try again another day.
