I’m full of nostalgia for the Sheraton logo – it reminds me of all the Sheratons we stayed at when I was a kid.
Also full of gratitude for this starbucks grande nonfat latte with an extra shot and 2 pumps of vanilla, that Mark ordered and brought to my bed. :))
Maybe less gratitude for my balcony dancer who had too much energy.

First Babysit For Hank

11 Oct 2013

We had the sweetest visit today!
Madie and Hank came over, and then Madie slipped out to have a quick lunch ‘sans babe’.
Hank is so precious. I think about if I’m ‘up to the job’!
I didn’t get a chance to clean the floors, vacuum, and all the general pick up I would have done in prep for his visit! (We were gone all weekend and I didn’t have time.)
Trying to remember my own kids at his age (2 1/2 mos) is foggy. I have a vague recollection of passing them off on Madie (Cole & Kiera too!) Not sure if they felt the same as I do with Hank, but I do know that I’m excited to return the favor! I just love the whole thing. Hanging out with my awesome little nephew is what’s it’s all about!!

Oscar’s Birthday Dinner

04 Sep 2013

What a nice evening we had! Omi & Opi came over, and so did Nanu & Chief, and Cole & Kiera. Everyone brought food, presents, and dessert! We had a yummy (easy) spaghetti dinner, with green salad and fruit salad and garlic bread. We followed it with 2 birthday desserts: a cake from Ben & Jerry’s, and homemade ice cream cake sundaes from Sweet Kiera that were gorgeous and crazy delicious. Oscar was in ice cream heaven. He is also in Star wars heaven – thanks for the gifts!
