Today, today

Yesterday in the car I told Matt, "I was scrolling through my past few blog posts and realized that lately they have been a little too--"

"Self-absorbed?"

"--introspective. Wait, what? Umm...yeah, you're right actually."

"Yeah, like, 'Look everyone, my life is soooo hard, look at me.' "

"Yes, I get it, thank you."

At any rate, here's some lighter fare for you today.




Also, Ida was awake from 3 to 4 a.m. this morning and then instead of sleeping in, she decided to wake up at 6 a.m. It's 8:00 now and Theo just woke up super grumpy--I can hear him shrieking in his bed. On the bright side I have cleaned the kitchen and the bathrooms already!

Also funny about the 3 a.m. wakeup was that I could hear my insomniac downstairs neighbor turn her TV up after Ida started crying. Struck me as amusing; I guess you take what you can get at 3 in the morning.

    Love these photos. Is Ida teething or something? Early a.m. wake up calls can be debilitating!!

    Hope you get a nap today!

    It's a Sunday thing. Because of 1 p.m. church, neither of them gets an afternoon nap on Sunday and so generally someone wakes up that night. It's usually Ida.

    I knew you would enjoy that one, Phoebe. :)

    And yes, we did finally get a new couch! Two in fact. I need to take a picture, except I am still trying to figure out how to arrange them. Because with two long couches facing each other--plus now also we have a gigantic steel desk--our living room has been transformed into a doctor's office waiting room. I just need to put a stack of "People" magazines on an end table somewhere and the illusion will be complete.

    Nothing to do with this post, but I thought you might want to know that the mp3 version of David Gray's new album is $3.99 today on Amazon.

    Whenever I feel depressed, I want to blog. Yay! So I know what you mean. Who wants to blog when you're having fun? I like all of your blogs, whether fun or "introspective".

    I was getting a little concerned for you because you seemed a little sad but I like that you are honest. And Nicole has a very good point.

    Yeah, I'm fine! Definitely introspective lately...and pretty serious. I'm kind of that way anyway though. It's a good argument for my keeping a journal--get it all written down but not necessarily share it with 150 people.
