Brookie's crawling and a new camera!!

Well, we survived the heat...just barely. We had gotten to the point of caving in and buying a new A/C unit....or rather one in general (we don't have one) when the temps started dropping and our apartment started cooling off again. So no A/C unit. Otherwise....what a week.

Brookie got her 5th tooth, and started crawling all within 2 days of each other. I FINALLY got a video of it tonight while we were at my in-law's house for dinner. She is so cute.

We got another new camera this week....well it wasn't planned exactly. So I asked John to clean out my car and bring everything up to our apartment and he did. Everything except one back that was a plastic grocery bag that was tied shut. In it I had an outfit of Brookie's, my crossword puzzle, a burp rag that we got as a gift, a bunch of her toys, both my favorites and hers. AND the thing I was initially most upset about, our nice camera. John thought it was garbage and was trying to help and threw it away in our dumpster. When he got home from work on Monday I asked where the camera was. He thought it was still on our counter. I told him it was in the plastic bag in the car. He got this oh crud look on his face and told me that he threw it away.

I got upset.

He dumpster dove.

Camera was gone forever. They came and got the dumpster during the day and tossed the contents. Bye bye camera. Boo. He felt so badly and I yelled at him for a bit...then apologized because I knew he wouldn't deliberately throw it away. We ended up at Target that evening and bought ourselves (or rather me-he calls it my camera) a new camera. I like it but don't love it. Some features are a bit weird. I was just going through and was noticing that a ton of our pics are really grainy and I'm really frustrated by that. I got spoiled on our nice camera and so now nothing compares to that. I guess we might have to sit down and read over the owner's manual. Oh well.

He still feels badly but at least I have a way to take video and pictures of our kiddos. Anyhoo, I need to head to bed now. I have been pulling nights that are WAY to long and I am so tired today....even the dishes are going to have to wait and if you know me that doesn't usually happen. Alrighty....good night!!
