I don't think this photo ever made it through from vacation. we had a mandatory safety drill before we could leave port. darren was exhausted and just cried and cried until we got the lifejacket off of him. the staff told us right away to take it off as soon as we got into the theatre where our meeting place was. after it was off, darren had a great time looking around at everyone.

just cast on my first knitting project. too bad the ipod is dead so i can't watch my youtube tutorial and finish a couple of rows of stitches before bed.
speaking of bed....dennis is master at getting darren to sleep. i'm one lucky wife and mother. sir teethes-a-lot went down without a fight tonight. a great departure from last night's scream-a-thon.
we took him to the doctor today, because we thought it was an ear infection. nope. just three more teeth on the way. that will bring the total to six once they all sprout.

na na na na, na na...you say it's (almost) your birthday?

na na na na, na na...it's (almost) my birthday too, yeah!
And Mr. Hodges' birthday.

Given that our birthdays appear in a short succession, we're going to celebrate our trio of birthdays at one big bash in a few weeks. Dennis (10/25/82), Kate (10/27/83) and Darren (11/17/08).

Darren, being the youngest and scrappiest, loses out. The party will be October 24th or 25th barring any scheduling difficulties. We all love autumn the most, and especially Halloween, so we're hoping to have a Halloween-ish-themed party at a pumpkin patch.

Location: TBD.

This is the un-official save the date. We have none of the details worked out, just the basic premise.

Oh yeah, and if you want to be the best combo-gift giver ever, you can get us a Queen (or king!!!)-sized bed. It's getting really squishy with all three of us jammed in a double (aka full) now that small fry moves around more (read: A LOT). One of us (read: ME) keeps getting shoved further and further off of the bed every night.

That's all for now. When I find some spare moments, I promise to get vacation stuff up.
