Home safe!

We made it home alright today and are trying to catch up on:

1) Sleep. H in bed by 6:45 pm and badly needed. Me soon too.
2) Blogging. Took a quick video of H on the flip tonight after her bath, right before bed. She was so cute pushing her kitty around on her pooh-mobile.

More updates later - had so much fun in MI and miss you much. Pics of that soon. XO.
(P.S. bought just dance online tonight too - Cecily, Joe and Sophia, you are going DOWN in July. DOWN.)

Iseedis?

So, about a month ago, I sit down at our regular desktop computer at home after a day at work and a night with H where things weren't super hunky dory (i.e. H was a super crank-en-fuss). I put this in the google search engine: "extremely guilty working mother". I look through the search results. Click on a couple, skim some stuff, then hmmm. Something seems to be wrong. There are messages popping up that say that I'm unprotected and am being attacked by a virus. And then my web browser starts spawning windows such as ww .viagra.com (and much worse things) and then I know I've been duped. Must of been some right-winger evangelist hacker who thinks working mothers are the devil who planted that bug. That made me feel better.

We figured out what it is and still haven't fixed it per se. For some reason, it's sort of went away and we can pretty much use our computer, but I still stay away from it mostly. I think D is going to repair it soon, if possible (or wipe the drive), but it's so hard to fit things like that in, especially when you have other computers at your disposal and it's not a priority (eh hem, I'm not on the clock).

So... that, plus I've just been pooped lately = no posts. There will be more soon, especially after this coming weekend. I can't wait and H nods her head "yes, yes" when I ask her - "are you excited to go see grandma, grandpa and your aunts and uncle and cousins?". So excited.

H has been adding steadily to her vocabulary lately (and phrases) after a long dry spell. Daddy went to get her Sunday morning from the crib while I continued to lay in bed still and she toddled into the room saying "Get up! Get up! Get up mommy!". Where did that come from? And she says this constantly all the sudden - "Iseedis?", meaning "can I see this?". And, my favorite, "sTOP!" whenever I so much as start humming anything. She does not like my singing, no she doesn't. I suspect it's not because she undervalues my superb melodious voice so much as "can it! they play simpery, kiddy music ALL DAY at daycare and I need some silence PLEASE!". I get that.

Anyway, in lieu of a current photo of H, here are some ramblings. See you soon! XO

Token Pic

I know it's been a while. Here she is on Friday morning.
