This is 30

I still have a few months to hang on to the glory of my '20s, but Grace over at Camp Patton blogged about it today and it sparked a small flicker of blogging motivation so I'm going with it.

I like the idea of titling of bunch of posts about my random life 'This is 30' and the going back to read them in 10 years and cracking up.  We'll see.

So today I took the kids to the zoo by myself.  When I say 'by myself', I mean without meeting friends + more kids.  We almost always meet people there {adult conversation while the kids are all occupied by animals!}, so this was new.  And actually fun.  I was surprised at how much they slowed down and looked at some of the non-animal stuff.  We did see some friends, but Henry was too distracted by the prospect of the train jungle-gym {not sure that it was intended to be a jungle gym, but whatever} to do more than a quick sprint-walk to say hi.

Then this afternoon we were found livin' it up at Meijer since we literally only had brown rice and 1 banana left in the house.  Aside from having to wait in the 6-child line to ride the penny horse, we made it out alive and kept it under 100 bucks.  Win-win.

During dinner, Henry took a flying leap off of the chair and chipped a tooth.  Not sure what that means, but it isn't lose, so here's hoping it's not black in the morning.  And here's hoping there's no expensive/sedation dentistry involved.

In other news, I started watching the entire Gilmore Girls series again.  It's bittersweet because I know in a few months when I finish I'll spend a whole month having Logan Huntzberger withdrawal.

So this is 30.  I'll take it.
