Evening Rambles

I just ate mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce.  Mixed together.  It was so delicious that I might make a big container and just keep it near my bed for midnight snacks.

Skipping C's morning nap and then driving home during the time of her afternoon nap with hopes she'll transfer easily inside is wishful thinking.  WISE UP, SELF, WISE UP!We

Winter is no fun unless there's snow.  So weather?  LISTEN ON UP, BUSTER!  Give me snow or give me balmy 70 degree weather and a tropical drink with an umbrella!

Bean survived a cold without getting an ear infection.  This is a minor miracle.  I think it's because she sneezed all of the germs all over me instead of letting them settle in her head.  She's a generous girl, don't you think?

We are now that family.  We have a minivan.  A craigslist ad with a price that was too good to pass up has resulted in us getting our very own blue 2002 Sienna.  And as much as you might get to make fun of me for it, it's a sweet ride.  You should hear the sound system.

I had three friends have baby girls in the past few weeks.  They've all chosen gorgeous names.  If we have a girl, I seriously fear for the poor child's psyche as we have NO girls' names whatsoever.  Suggestions?  (Ok, we'll take boy suggestions too :)
