Our vacation so far

  • 1 broken camera
  • 1 Christmas Eve midnight trip to work to borrow a camera
  • 1 Nintendo Wii
  • 1 iPod Shuffle (for me) going back in favor of a more generic but versatile MP3 player
  • 1 set of headphones (for G) - too big to use at the gym, oops!
  • 2 cute little tricycles
  • 1 soccer goal that occasionally draws the kids out away from the Wii - a really cool gift from A's birthmom
  • 1 near-disaster involving the fireplace and 6 stockings
  • 3 people with stomach bugs
  • 2 people with respiratory flu
  • 4 hours in Urgent Care
  • 1 night of panic about the state of the house
  • 1 fun family viewing of Ratatouille
  • 1 social worker with bronchitis
  • 2 cancelled foster/adoption related events today - a bio family visit and a home visit - WHEW!
  • 9 million ants in the bathrooms, finally defeated by an application of the outdoor granules all around the house
  • 1 request per day (at least) from K about when Grandma and Grandpa will arrive (the answer is tomorrow)

Treasure your youth. Because someday you will look back and think, "how did I deal with all that?"
