went down to nj for the day. i met my mom at david's bridal in deptford and she took micah to my grandmother's house. it is so weird doing anything without him. i have now been to an anberlin concert, out for groceries (twice), target/bob evans, and david's bridal/olive garden without him. i had a panic attack when jess and i went to see anberlin. actually, i had two that night. (it was my first time being away from him, save for the occassional nap) it never fails that i end up worrying about having left him in the car. anyway, i tried on and ordered my dress for amanda's wedding. i was so close to fitting in the size 2, but felt more comfortable in the next size up. score for moms with infants everywhere. actually, i think most hate me for that. after olive garden, i went to my grandmother's to find micah sleeping. i was told that he gave a ton of kisses and kept shaking his head "no". my mom, micah, and i met up with jess at the super wal*mart in vineland. although i might not be keen on their practices as a company, it is one of the best places to find vegetarian/organic/gluten-free/asian/mexican/kosher staples for less. so many items in our fridge/pantry are labeled kosher lately. being vegan a few times a week helps this out a lot. more about that tomorrow.
