Thank you Jenni!


So it was our last day with Jenni, and now Lola goes on to day care because her spot is available at the Jordan Center. Jenni was soooooo good to her, and I think we are all surprised how attached everyone got to the arrangement, including Jenni's kids Kate and Brennan. I couldn't have done the past 3 months without her support, motherly advice, and love for my Lola. She really made it so much easier.

Thank you Jenni, Lola luvs you!

Happy Birthday- 35- Ouch!




It was a very good birthday, even though it was 35 and it seems like the magical thirtysomething age is slipping away. Now I have to think about mamograms, amnio for pregnancy, botox? I guess the only difference I can identify is the lack of energy- is that because I am getting farther away from my youth or because I have a baby?

Anyway, it was a great day and weekend. Kevin got flowers and a card, one from him and one from Lola. I never get cards from him, so it was a treat! And a visit from Mom topped it off, it was a GREAT weekend. We had so much fun, and she loved on Lola all weekend. Lola really ate it up, and belly laughed too.

It made being 35 not so bad.

Hallie's visit


Hallie and Todd visited over the weekend, on their way to DC to move Todd in to start law school at GW. Then, Hallie goes back to Little Rock to start grad school at the Clinton School.

Seeing them, thinking back to that age bracket, before Kevin and Lola, seems like another life. I go back to that "other life" sentiment a lot. I have found myself saying a lot lately, "oh that was in another life"

When will now become another life?

Good luck Hallie and Todd - the world is yours for the taking... You too, Lola Boo...
