Anywho.. coming back from that tangent. Drew. Yep, I still quite like him. The past 2 years have been COMPLETELY different than how we had both imagined they would be but i can still say I'm happy with day to day life. We've grown soooo much, both as people and as a couple. It's kind of funny but he really is my best friend and I love being able to come home each night and tell him all about my day and I love that we can talk about EVERYTHING. That's one thing about our relationship: we don't run out of stuff to talk about.
Last night we celebrated since we couldn't really do so on a Sunday. We went to a nice restaurant for dinner (it was REALLY good) and then we came home and cuddled. Drew got me some gorgeous jewelry and I'm getting him a printer/scanner thingy cause he really wants one as well as making BBQ ribs and some pumpkin pie today. I'm restocking my jewelry collection slowly but surely with his help!
So babe, here's to 2 fantastic years! ... and I just realized we forgot to buy sparkling cider like we were plannning. You ok with a Koolaid toast instead?
In other news, Chester is getting SO big! I mean he's still small but compared to that tiny little thing we brought home almost a month ago he's huge! We're kind of getting into a groove and he's doing better about house training. He's pretty much paper trained with the exception of going number 2. With that we still have to watch for his "I'm going to go" signs. There is hope though. We still need to be consistent and eventually this only-go-outside thing will take. We've discovered that the toys he has the most fun with are mundane house items (I've been told this happens with kids too). I have an old pair of shorts that I stole from my older brother long, long ago. Well, they pretty much got ripped in half because of excessive use so I decided that since Chester is always trying to chew on our clothes, I'd give him one item and let him chew on that. He LOVES the shorts.
The other item we discovered just this last week. It's an empty 2 liter soda container. He will chase that thing all over the apartment. The first time he started playing with it he thought it was alive because it "moved on it it's own" (aka, slides on the carpet at the slightest touch).Drew said he pinned the container in the corner and then sat there waiting for it to move. Below is evidence of his silliness with the container:
As you can see, our little man is still really cute. When he's not bouncing off the walls he is asleep on our laps so we've only got extremes here. He loves people and will usually try to maul them with kisses when we pass them on our walks. It's fun.
Drew likes to rough house with him and Chester absolutely loves it. He likes to attack your nose, hair, and ears. We're working to have that not happen because all we need when we have a baby for him to attack the baby and nibble on the baby's nose. Don't think that'll go over so well.
He's still really cute so I guess we'll keep him :)
