June 7

So blog time used to be in the morning after Marley went to school and Abe went down for a nap. School's out and Abe is now wrestling around with the idea of only one nap a day in the afternoon. Soooo.... ugh.

Thank you for the book suggestions! I am reading Choke by Chuck Palahniuk, and enjoying it very much. He also has a book of short stories that I heard about through a friend, I may have to check them out. My Dad also got The Moonflower Vine by Jetta Carleton for me after reading this article in the Riverfront Times. He has since taken it back to read it first. I think Blind Assasins will be next on the list though. Also someone mentioned Pride Prejudice and Zombies in their blog, and then a friend of mine was raving about it, I have mixed feelings on reading it, but maybe someone else will be interested.

In other news, Abe walks now. Not just a toddle here, a toddle there. No, just walks. He falls down a lot, but instead of crawling the rest of the way he just stands right back up. He does try to run, which involves him leaning forward a little bit which seems to propell him a little more but ends up just making him lose his balance and nose dive into the ground. We've also finished nursing. It just happened, kind of suddenly. I'm a little sad still, but we had a good go of it, approx. 13 months.

Oh and Declan had a job interview! I will tell you more when we find out if he got it or not next week.

And I have lots of knit things to show and tell. D has to work tonight (Sunday, darnit) and I will get out my camera and shoot away.

I have to go, I convinced Declan to take the kids so I could get ready for work and finish up some stuff for a class and here I am sitting at the computer instead. I'm afraid I am about to be found out.
