Things are good. I just found this book and thought I’d put the link here in my blog. Although I haven’t totally figured out how to add links to this new blog but I’ll try and see what happens. The North Beach Diet I don’t necessarily want to order…

Owen and nap time used to be such good friends. He was regular. He would get tired and a little fussy by 9:45 and I could have him asleep and in his crib by 10:00. No problem…until yesterday. He just fought and fought…wouldn’t sleep but still jus…

Owen has been saying a lot of new things but I just realized today that he wanted to watch something on the computer when he said “watsh” and pointed to my monitor. I set him up in the bonus room with the lap-top and a DVD. He went to bed at 7:20-ish l…

I’m working on a new look for my blog. For some reason I’m not envisioning a complete picture and trying to communicate to Kris, my blog master, what I want is difficult. However… this is a start and I like it so far. I want to add some more life to…

Well…the little guy fell down the stairs again. We have been unsuccessful in convincing him that though he can walk upright on flat surfaces he is not yet big enough to go down the stairs that way. I have been keeping the gate up most of the time but…

This morning Owen woke me up cheering for who knows what. I looked at the clock and it was 7:15 already. I couldn’t believe he wasn’t screaming to be let out of his crib. He went to bed early last night. He was getting upset about everything by 6:30…

Today I have a long list. Visit the Boyds in the hospital, meet Lucille for lunch. Run a few other errands like pick up some dish soap…we’re completely out and that’s a bad thing. Catch up on laundry and brainstorm on the church events I’m helping t…

I left the house at 5:50 a.m. after the deluge of hail that hit us at 5:30 and didn’t return until 4:00. Owen and I joined my sister Becky and her two daughters, my dad (who was in town for the weekend) and Andy the guy who owns the Orbit Health-food st…

I ate Dirty Dan’s Lasagna at the leadership dinner last night. I didn’t enjoy it that much. I could have eaten before hand but it was free and I didn’t have to cook. So I ate it.

I am learning to knit. It’s fun. I had a book to teach me at one po…
