Hope everyone had a fun, festive day. We
\n had a pretty average day and another year with no fireworks.
\n Our town apparently has a very nice little 4th of July
\n celebration with music, food, fireworks, etc., but we’ve yet to
\n make it. I wanted to go this year, but both of the kids are a
\n little off today and it just felt like too much to try and push
\n them and keep them up late. Lex is scared of loud noises too,
\n so he probably would hate the fireworks. Oh well. I may go sit
\n on my porch and watch the highest ones over the tree

\n previous year’s 4th of July posts and found two funny things
\n from last year. First, I was excited that Lex was showing
\n positive signs towards potty training. This is fun, in a ironic
\n sort of way, because I could post the same comment again this
\n year and it would still be accurate. Apparently we haven’t come
\n very far in the potty department this year. The other thing is
\n that there is a video of
\n Eve<\/a> in her little stars and stripes dress and her
\n laugh is adorable. It’s the same laugh she has now, only
\n smaller :)<\/p>\n
\n Sometimes I feel like a party-pooper with the holidays. I can
\n really get into Christmas and birthdays, but that’s about it.
\n We do Halloween and Thanksgiving, but we don’t seem to
\n celebrate anything else. All the neighbors
\n (Keeping-up-with-the-Jones-itis) are having parties and music
\n and decorations and whatever, and at our house it’s just
\n another day. I put on a red shirt, but that was purely
\n coincidence. Sigh. I assume that as the kids get older we’ll do
\n more. Or not. I guess we’ll see. For now I have a quiet house
\n and hear the fireworks in town starting, so I’ll say goodnight.
\n Happy 4th of July! (or Happy Birthday, as Alan’s been saying
\n all day)<\/p>\n
