Santa!

Zach saw Santa for the first time last Thursday at St. Mark's Hospital. To be honest, I expected tears. But, Zach went right up to Santa for the picture and stared at him in awe. Then Santa gave him a little stuffed Rudolf Raindeer and a Barbershop Quartet sang "Rudolf" to him. He loved it.

Birthday/Attic Girl

My birthday present from Darryl finally arrived! He has been giving me clues for the last 6 weeks. He told me that it was "one of a kind" & "my collage roommates would like it". What?!

So what arrives? A personalized license plate. It stands for "Attic Girl". When Darryl and I met I lived in this tiny, quirky apartment called "The Attic". I was the tallest one living there at the time and I hit my head on the slanted ceilings all the time. But, we loved and took great pride in being Attic Girls! Thanks Darryl! I love it!

(Just had to add this picture because the kid is cute!)

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had high hopes that Zach might actually eat this Thanksgiving. But, no luck! He enjoyed a lovely meal of goldfish crackers dipped in ranch dressing. Yum! He then went down for a nap so his parents could actually eat. Zach wandered downstairs on his own 20 minutes later carrying his baby monitor. Thanks!
