Babies in Baskets

Somewhere there is a photo of me at Robin's age in a wicker basket. If I find it I'll post it. Mom, do you have it?

Happy Birthday, Mom

Tomorrow is my Mom's birthday. Aw, isn't she cute?
Happy Birthday to Jessica and Brianna too. Celebrate in style, girls.

Robin with his passion in life...The Wiggles and his own "Big Red Car". Okay, so I hope "passion in life" is an exaggeration

Pick me up for the trillionth time, Mom.

Today at Birdie's Indoor Play area. So I pick the warmest week in February to try a week at this place. Oh well.

We love getting mail...

...especially when it's a Hokey Pokey Elmo in a box full of packing peanuts.

and back to the peanuts after bath time

Thanks, Kennedy family! I know it looks like Robin liked the packing stuff more, but trust me, I haven't hokey pokeyed that much since preschool.

Barnes & Noble

We went to the bookstore today. We usually do that about once a week. It is conveniently next to the grocery store so I can run in and get a few items (today milk, toilet paper, & cat food), then mosey over to Barnes & Noble to sip my Chai Tea Latte as R. plays with the train set and proceeds to take 50 or so books off the shelves that I have to put back. Okay, so my tea goes unsipped as it sits high on a bookshelf while I chase after my toddler, but it tastes yummy on the car ride home.

As promised, Grammy, here is a video of Robin walking. Robinson started walking when we returned to Virginia, and is now really getting the hang of it. It was so odd at first to see this short little guy meandering around (& falling a lot too), but now it seems like he has been walking for a long time.

I hope everyone is having a great 2008! I made too many resolutions, but I'm not feeling guilty when I can't get to some of them. Here are a few images from the last month. I promise to get a video of the little guy walking, or running, or dancing to the Wiggles.

Blog readers, we're back!

So, our Mac died last month, right before we were leaving for Massachusetts. The geniuses at the Genius Bar could not fix it. So, the nice people at the Apple Store have replaced our dead one with a brand new iMac. Yeah! Complete with all our old data and everything. We just picked it up tonight. So, even though we've been living without web access, I am still a happy girl. I will post more info and pics in the next day or two. Just wanted to say hi to everyone. :)
