Dear blog, sorry for the neglect. I still loves you.

In honor of the text dumps I've seen in the blogosphere lately, it's time for mine.

- Mr. Wookie survived his Kangaroo Court...to which he spent the night with the Junior Officers camping out on the beach. His perfect timing home was just as I was taking bacon out of the oven (yes, I cook bacon in the oven). So I had to share half my porkly squandor. ...wahwah...

- We are closing in on the weekend my parents will be visiting! Eeek!!

- The weather here has been beautifully Oregonian, with today being completely cloudy with the touch of sprinkling. Almost perfect.

- I still watch Extreme Couponing...and constantly yell at the television. I don't know why I watch. It's addicting. But I can't stop hoping people hear me - just because you have coupons for candy bars, doesn't mean you need them...

- I have less than 4 weeks until my Malibu half marathon. Am I ready? Heck no. Will I still run? Heck yes.

- I hope to see at least the backside of a celebrity as they PR.

- Oh, Mr. Wookie left again Tuesday. Yup, we're in the throws of pre-deployment training. I feel so green behind the ears that I'm not fearing anything about this process. Yes, he's not here more times than not. But we're so weird in our relationship that we can handle weeks apart and zero communication that being separated isn't that big of a deal.

- So to answer the question, yes, Sweet Pea has been joining me during my unconscious episodes (and I intend for this to mean sleep, but then I realized that people will probably read that I drink myself into a stupor...which is not the case, at all. Promise. We always know when to call it a night. And that's before tequila is mentioned...).

- Oh, and this gem graced the world a little earlier than planned. Due November 12th, Lil' Emma joined her family late last night at 7 lbs, 1 oz. to the proud parents of my Brother and Sister-in-Law. Fully baked, this lil beauty will discharge tomorrow and continue rockin' her brunette hair (Middle Sister is so proud of this!) as the latest member of this family of four.

Monday, April 4

this vacancy has been filled

Happiest birthday to my sister-in-law, Amber!  May Brother rub your feet, make you dinner, and not crop-dust midst your vicinity.  Yes, it's a high order.  And yes, I do have leftover wine corks to aid in that last request.  And no, I don't have any petroleum jelly to assist with that last request.

If the news is on Facebook, it has to be true.

Her birthday is being spent grooming the future genetics of our family.  REDHEADS, REDHEADS, REDHEADS!  We found out this news in Palm Springs, I just didn't know when to spry it onto my loving readers.  Well...now's a good time!  And the greatest news of it all: They WILL gender it via ultrasound.  Yes!  So we'll know around the 18-20 week mark whether this kid'll learn to pee standing up on the back fence...or pee behind her car on a Friday night because she drank too much Slurpee and wasn't near her home.  True story by yours truly.


Estimated time of arrival: November 2011.
