1. Your view today Hanging on my kitchen wall; My view and my view.
A second.
The time has arrived. The questions have commenced. I've seen the looks. I've caught the half-second-too-long-glances lingering over my mid-section (nope, sorry, it's just the chicken burritos, thank you very much.) People want to know when we're going to have a second child. They wonder. They whisper. They ask. And the answer is... Not yet. Fooled ya, didn't I?! But, it's a valid questions. ...
While we are on the subject
of spicing things up around here, I will be starting this tomorrow: Because while I am terrible with maps and loading the dishwasher, I have a gift for taking an excess of mobile photos. (Photo a Day Via)
Something New!
My sister and I, like any two people, have strengths and weaknesses. She is not great at cutting with scissors. I am terrible at parking. Weak. Yet, She is a Journalism whiz kid and I am an expert at Dirty Dancing. But, one thing that we are both really, really talented in is Blog Stalking. We are total blog-o-holics. In ...
Muchas Gracias

I absolutely cannot believe it. *** Tonight, I had to put away some paperwork in my filing drawer, and I stumbled into the "Baby Hospital" folder. In it, I found her original (unofficial) birth certificate, copies of her foot prints, lists ...
Party like a rock star(?)
So, this just happened: Me: "It's almost April! We should start to think about baby's 2nd birthday party. What should we do?" Husband: "How about a 20's flapper party?" Me: "I LOVE it! What do we do? You know, besides dress as flappers?" Husband: "Hmmm....How about a Pirates v. Ninjas party?" Me: "No." Husband: "Spy party?" Me: "Absolutely not." Husband: "We could do ...
Ours/A Haiku
You call her "so lithe", while I call her "willowy"; we both call her ours.
I just want to say,
that I feel very grateful that I have a partner who not only takes care of our family every day, but who also takes extra special care of me when I'm sick.
