Black Friday 2010

So, I did somewhat participate in Black Friday for the very first time. I even spent a whooping $40 all day. Hunter and I met up with a family friend, Colleen. We went to Costco, had lunch, did a little shopping, and I even met a Seahawks player! It was a pretty eventful afternoon.

Hunter has developed his own will. He has become a rather difficult eater. He will not eat meat and very few vegetables. I used to think children were like this because their parents never exposed them to healthy foods, how judgemental of me! Now, I am realizing that a lot of children just develop their own will and want to eat only what they want to eat. For Hunter this mostly includes cheese, some fruits, and crackers. I wish it was a bit more balanced, but I'm feeling like I can't do much about it. Here is Hunter at lunch on Black Friday (he was way more interested in the crayons than the food):





I have to admit that his interest in the crayons was refreshing, that day was the first day that he used them to color, not to snack on!

We got home and anxiously awaited for Jesse to get back from Hunter up in Skagit. He brought home a lot of ducks, oh goodie! (Sarcasm) Then we proceeded to decorate for Christmas. We listened to Christmas music, drank hot mulled wine, and reminisced about all the ornaments we had accumulated over the last 4+ years. It was fun to look at the ornament we got right after we got engaged, the pirate oranement from St. Thomas, the sparkly kiwi bird from New Zealand, the personalized "New Parents" one, etc.
