Day 115....Farmers market!

May 15

Today, Martyn decided he wanted to wake up and be up, and there was no going back to bed for Mama....at about 5. The alarm clock went off at 5, and it was shortly after that, it seems. I got up to change his diaper, in hopes that he wouldn't wake up all the way and I could sneak him back to bed with out too much fuss. No such luck. I did bring him back to bed for about 45 min or so, but he was wide awake. In fact, he was totally chatty and smiley and happy....silly baby. So I decided to take him upstairs, and see if we could find any good Saturday morning cartoons.

Man, kids these days don't have ANY good Saturday morning cartoons....there was just nothing. Maybe it was too early or something, but everything was just crap.

What happened to all the good Saturday morning cartoons? Oh well.

Eli came upstairs about 7:30 or so. Since we managed to get up so early, I took a nice long shower and washed my hair. It had taken 4 months, but the post pregnancy hair loss has finally happened.....I had a serious handful of hair by the end of my shower....including the combing it out while it was still wet. Oh well though, it's not that bad, and I do still have a LOT of hair, ha!

We decided to go to the Farmers Market and have breakfast there, since it was still pretty early. I think that's probably one of the earliest times we've made it into the market, about 9. Usually we don't get there until well after 10. Still though, it was already packed. I noticed a huge amount of babies being strolled around, and was remembering all the pregnant ladies I took note of all last season....me being one of them.

It was very cool. We had a wonderful Mexican omelet that we shared from one cart, and then the coffee guy we got coffee from had this really good mexi-mocha, that had spicy chocolate in it....yummy!

It was Martyn's first time to the Farmers Market....first of many. We all had a good time. The farmers market is just about the only setting in which I don't mind being in that big of a crowd of people. Although, I think I would have minded much more had I not started the whole time off with something to eat. That makes a world of difference. I think it's going to be a great season.

Walt and Mary Jane came over later today and hung out with us and visited. They brought their super cute puppy girl, Sissy, too. She's totally grown and looks different from the last time we saw her, just a couple weeks ago. Martyn was much more quiet and observant today than he normally is....that's ok too. He really liked watching the dogs play, or just listening to everyone talk to each other and to him. At dinner, he was really intently looking at a bottle of catsup on the table. Eli moved it closer to him, so he could reach it, and he just got all excited and knocked it over. You could see the little wheels in his head, putting together how to touch, and then push over that bottle. That's what's going on in the little video clip of him. He was getting so excited about it, that he started yelling at the bottle. So cute!

All in all, this was a wonderful Saturday. This is what Saturday is all about!
