Man-baby in Training

Z got his braces on Thursday.  He has been miserable and very vocal about it.  I never had braces, the discomfort can't be more than childbirth pain, right?  C had braces and I remember her struggles.  She could only eat yogurt and food with it's consistency for over two weeks.  I went and got special food for him.  The poor kid is suffering.....

He does seem incredibly whiny, though.  I think he's practicing being a man-baby for when he grows up.

I'm taking everyone but M and A to see Eclipse today....early.  I found another $5 showing.  I think I can get out of buying candy, too, since it's so early.

I worked on Rosalie's block last night.  I had to stop one piece from finishing the first half because I need to clean my iron.  I must have gotten some residue on it and it's leaving stains on my fabric.  I'm trying to stay focused and finish this quilt!

We don't have many other plans for the weekend.  M and I are off on Monday.  The kids are all making their plans with friends.  I'm trying to remember what July 4th is really all about.....which is tough, especially when it's so "offensive" to be and American anymore.
