Owen was talking in his sleep this morning. It was cold, and though I had covered him up twice he continued kicking his quilt off and then would be just uncomfortable enough to talk and whine in his sleep but not actually wake up. When I went in at 5:4…

Owen has been playing with his blanket more lately. He has always preferred his little fleece checked blanket to the others but has never had a nickname for it or a really acted dependant on it. Once in a while he will specifically ask for it when goin…

I was going to write about our visitors but Kris did such a great job of recapping all of that I think I’ll leave it alone. I am now done with the Night of Laughter for this year and am thinking about all I want to do next year…but it is just somethin…

Owen and I are home alone today. Kris’ parents and his Meema were dropped off at the airport and Kris is off to work. No Joey today as I requested that I get a day to recuperate. Poor Kris doesn’t get one and in fact will be out late tonight working o…

I want to write a little more detail about The Night of Laughter. Since it was an all consuming part of my life for the past several weeks it seems unfair to minimize it in past tense to a couple of lines in my blog.

Everything went fairly well excep…

I have too much to say in the time allotted me, so to quickly recap…

Friday:

Went to church, set up curtains

Went to lunch with Pastor Sandy
Picked up Owen
Owen and I took naps…

Kris and I had our 6 month dental appointments this morning. Mmmm…smooth teeth. I really hate the scraping that they do at first but then when they use that round rubbery thing to basically buff your teeth…that’s a good thing. The hygienist I had…
