A Bed for Happy.

Wren and I took Happy shopping for a bed. I laid four contenders out, and this is the one that she chose. Liking what he saw, Wren decided to climb right in with her to try it out. After some careful negotiating, they decided that it was, indeed, a perfect fit.

Happy Love Savage.

We are pleased to announce the newest member of our family: Happy. She was adopted this morning. She is a very sweet and loving stray. They estimate that she is around three years old. We were not looking for her, but we are very happy to have found her. Sweet girl. xoxo

Styrofoam.

I tried to teach Wren that styrofoam is evil. In fact, I explained, we should limit our contact with it all together. He couldn't disagree more.

Thanksgiving Week.

What a week! Arctic storm = subfreezing temps, snow, ice, wind warnings, power outages, road closures. Oy! Add to it, Jesse was on call. Working, working, working. Elizabeth was out of town, so I was on work and 2x/daily kitty duty. Thanksgiving shopping. Food prep. Christmas cards and gifts mostly shipped. Still more to come. More to make. More work to do. Gigs and play dates. Early stage potty training. Number lessons ("Fun. Two. Fee. Fibe. Sick. Ten."). Alphabet lessons (Wren's favorite part: P & Q... he giggles and says "peee... and.... pew!") Merriment. Joy. Love. Peace. Family time. Been busy. xx

"Son, you got a panty on yo' head."

Wren's Favorite Chore.

If you can't find him, he's probably in the laundry room ~ sorting his laundry... into the hamper, trash can, and sink. If the washer lid is open, he will throw some in there as well. He also likes to sweep.
