what are you, 20 months old?

Using "what are you, 20 months old?" is something I read about in my parenting magazine - and I have been 'trying it out' today. Here's how it goes- when Mason has a tantrum, or does something else that is a little frustrating, I say "what are you, 20 months old" to myself - and then the situation doesnt seem so bad, because afterall, he is only 20 months old!

mason and I had a wonderful day together - Bobby is gone to Minneapolis for a poker tournement and then is going to the Vikes game tomorrow. He invited me to come along but I would rather stay home and relax! We stayed in our sweats all day - and spent a lot of time playing outside, it was beautiful! I really should get around to putting away my summer clothes and bust out the sweaters but just can't bring myself to do it.

I also started the LONG process of tearing off the wallpaper in my scrapbook room, I want to paint the wall lime green. Have you ever started a project that once you started it, you kind of wish you hadn't, but there is no turning back???? That is my feeling about that project!

Right now I am trying to catch up on past episodes of 'the closer,' love this show! Sad that I wont be able to watch Brothers & Sisters until Bobby gets home Monday night, I am so excited for the new season to start. Since when did I become such a TV-junkie??? I used to never watch TV.

Tomorrow Mason & I are going with my mom to Fargo - we are going to visit my brother & sister.

Think I might start a scrap page... this month's *scrapjack perhaps??? :)
