On Saturday Gabe was helping to vacuum and the unlikeliest thing happened. The little lightbulb in the vacuum fell out and was sucked up, but it was too big and hard to suck up so it shattered as it was breaking the fan blade, thus ending the vacuums ability to, well, vacuum. Oh, and leaving behind tiny shards of glass. It sounded like something had crashed in our apartment. Gabe freaked out, Chi started crying. So, we had to borrow a neighbor's vacuum, and then we started shopping around. We finally bought a Bissel yesterday, mainly based on price. It seems okay. I think in a few years I'll upgrade, but we have two boys, we had to have something.
We get to have a vacation soon. On Monday we are headed for Dubuque so that we can go to the indoor water park. We will also visit the museum and aquarium. It is a short trip, but the change of pace will do us some good.
Chi is making new sounds and mimicking more. Today Gabe kept shouting "Out, baby!" when he was trying to build train tracks (which Chi always destroys in a Baby-zilla fashion) and Chi looked at him and said something that was awfully close to "Out!"
