Busy (mostly having fun)

I have been neglecting the ol' blog lately, and it's all because there's a lot on the Wernet plate right now and there has been a lot of fun to be had! Here are the highlights, which will get much more attention soon, especially since the camera cord has been located and pictures are ready to upload!

• Birthday party after birthday party
• Lots of fun at Gull Lake, some of which was a moms-and-kids adventure
• Getting ready to (gulp) move
• Welcoming Emily back to the U.S.
• Redoing the bathroom (see: getting ready to (gulp) move)
• Writing my practicum and conference proposals - which, if they get accepted, I will have to take a 4-month-old to!

I gave Nellie a time-out for going in the neighbor's yard and not coming back when I called her. She looked at me and said very firmly, "that is not desirable."


When I left for girls' night out last week (which, I will point out, only happens once every few months,) Kevin held Annie on the front porch while she cried dramatically. Kevin called me to say that she wasn't crying "Mommy," she was sobbing, "BROOOOOWNIEEEEES" because I was taking the brownies with me.
