at some point since otis was born, i changed my food habits. i don't even remember when that was. maybe new year? but i think it was earlier than that. maybe november. it has gone well, and i'm proud of myself.

this wednesday, we're leaving for our vacation in cancun. usually i do well with a new routine until there is a disruption. so i am curious to see how i manage there and upon returning from this break from routine. i feel that i have been significantly changed enough that i won't be negatively impacted by this, but i'll have to wait and see.

packing for myself and 2 small children is an interesting experience. under normal circumstances, i would have eamon pack for himself with brendan's help. i think that he is old enough to do that now, but since we are taking limited luggage, we have to be crafty with what we choose, so i'm doing it myself. i think i've reached the point that i need to take a break until wednesday, because we need to use everything else up until then.

this afternoon, all three lorimer males were napping. so i sat down with a cider at the kitchen table. yes, i WAS drinking mid afternoon :p unfortunately, otis woke up the moment i got comfortable. c'est la vie.
