A Quick Post...

I am trying desperately to finish up my documentation for work AND I would like to get in a blog post tonight, since the blog has been so sorely neglected recently.
However, I am being summoned by a little four year old lying in my bed dressed as Laura Ingalls. "Mama? Can I will play with your hair?"
She wins.
Good night.

THIS is Why I Love My Job.

Because I get to associate with people like this. How can I not be inspired?

This Is Our Excuse...

...for not being in touch, not sending out Christmas cards, not being done with Thank-you notes, having a crazy-messy house and for generally flying under the radar for the past three or so months.

Introducing Trip (Trips, Trippy, or El-Tripporino if you're not into the whole brevity thing). Expected to arrive early to mid August.
The picture is from the beginning of last week. He/she is measuring about a week ahead of what we thought. So our actual due date is up in the air. He/she will come when they're ready. If I'm not used to that already - I know I should be. =-)

And Yet Again...

This is what happens when Daddy works late on a Friday night and Mommy is trying to get too many things done at one time.
Caroline showed up looking like this and told me that she was ready to go to Pat and Erica's wedding! It took a bit to convince her that the wedding was more than "30 sleeps" away.

And, well...what about Sam? He just thinks he's Cinderella!
