Overheard

Emma, in the car on the way to school this morning, as she was singing about a bug on the window:
"Hey, Mom. MOM! Bug ... ant. Uncle ... aunt. Those rhyme!"

me: "Wow! There is no parking AGAIN today."
Libby: "I guess people must be REALLY into parking right now, Mom."

During my umpteenth hour (OK, it just felt like hours) of rocking Emma to get her to sleep:
me: "Emma! Stop monkeying around. Close your eyes."
Em: "I can't close both eyes, Mom. I can only close this one."
Then she winked at me.


And if I can ever remember to steal Martin's computer for a few minutes, I'll try to post new pictures sometime. (My laptop only has pictures as recent as Christmas.)

New additions to our family

Late last week we added four fish to our family.  They were Emma's birthday present so she got naming rights (with some assistance from Big Sister).  Thus I introduce to you "PeePee", "PooPoo", "GooGoo", and "Isabella".
