Let me first apologize for not writing as regularly as before.  Like many of you, November and December are months full of birthdays, food, travel & entertaining.  Throw that in with the usual baby/child care and you know where blogging falls in my list of to-dos.  That said, there’s plenty of new material, so I will try to visit and update as much as possible.

Here’s one negative side-effect of parenthood which we have turned into a positive…

On “Black Friday,” our kids independently woke us up in the middle of the night.  At 4:30, I rolled over to my honey and said, “Want to go to Wal-Mart?”  Any other year, before kids, we would have slept through all of the sales, but this year thanks to our little roly-poly non-sleepers, my husband got some good deals.  Thanks kids!
