All those hours and hours and hours and feeding and burping are paying off! Our little O-bug is nearly 8 pounds! His transformation from wrinkly old man to newborn baby has been amazing to watch – he changes visibly every day. Now that I think about it, that would be a really cool premise for...

Props to Lady D.
Lady D. is my dear friend who also happens be a wonderful photographer. She photographed Owen (and the rest of us) every day during her holiday visit … when she wasn't taking care of me and my family and my laundry and my grocery list and my children and her own spouse and three kids,...
The Great Pink Eye Epidemic of 2009
It started about 3 weeks ago with Joshua. We lasted 10 days before it spread to Michael (just in time to keep him home from school after the Christmas holiday – I was thrilled) and then in quick succession to Dan, Noah and Owen.
Everyone has had clear eyes for a while now. I thought I...
Dear Mr. President

In that hectic, crazy blur that is caring for a newborn it seems like those four weeks might just have been four really really really long days. But then again, can it only have been four weeks? I can't quite shake the...
He Must Love Me
Wow. Dr. Dan must really love me. A lot. How do I know this? He let me take these:
And he was mostly a good sport about it all. Even when he got pee'd on. Twice.
Thanks for playing along hon. I love you too.
This Year …
I hope to:
nourish, nurture and love my new baby monkey, my suddenly enormous bigger monkeys, my better half, and myself
simplify, and
explore
I'd really like to add sleep to that list, but I think that's a bit unrealistic at this point, so I'll leave it off.
(insert big yawn here)
Annnnyway, what do you hope to do in 2009?

Rebecca
