I know you're reading

I love statcounter.com, it lets me know, down to the city, who is hitting out site. I haven't seen any comments lately, which would lead me to believe no one is reading the blog if I didn't have my statcounter.com. So, what are you waiting for? comment comment comment!

What I'm listening to: Ever heard of this up and coming young crooner Michael Buble? (pronounced boob.lei hehehe) Don't you think I've forgotten about my #1 Josh Groban. But Michael is pretty happenin. Like a little lounge, big band, and jazz. I guess he's comparable to Harry Connkic Jr. I was listening to Michael's song "Home" and it put fussy Evan to sleep. Way to go Buble! I heard that song "Home" when I was pregnant and with hormones off the charts, it put me in tears. hehehe And if you know me, I'm no sap like that. I don't know if I ever fully regained hormone "normalcy", cause now sappy commercials and Oprah make me teary eyed! *sigh*

Evan's making milestones faster than I can record them. He's well on his way to crawling. Which is a bittersweet thought to me. Happy he's more independent and developing well, but sad that he's not that tiny quiet newborn anymore. I hate packing away clothes he's outgrown. Poor Evan has to put up with his mom trying to squeeze him into small clothes. hehehe
His newest thing: I lay him on his back, he'll roll to his tummy, push up with his arms, push up with his legs, gets up on all fours, pushes back and sits up smiling at me. He'll sit there for a while playing and enjoying the view then falls to his side or back. Repeat. Every time I check on him he's sitting in a new part of his play mat.

Thanksgiving was fun. Mark's sister, brother and his wife came to spend it with us. I didn't want the hassel, so I ordered a pre-cooked meal from Giant Supermarket. And acutally the pre-cooked turkey was the best turkey I've ever had! Who knew?! The side dishes were ok, I guess I could have made that... next year, get pre-cooked turkey, and make everything else. We also ended up watching the entire 1st season of Lost. I knew I shouldn't have started! It seems all normal at first but each episode gets more and more weird! Invisiable monsters that eat people, crazy french lady, the 'others' that live on the island, the hatch in the ground that leads to even more weirdness, and psyhco numbers that show up everywhere! My conclusion is that everyone was abducted on this flight by their oxygen masks and are in a group dream/nightmare, where all their fears are brought to life. I'm not going to watch anymore cause I'm gonna get sucked in to it's pointless storyline.

I've made it tradition in our home to set the Christmas tree up after Thanksgiving. Over the last 3 Christmases I've gotten more decorations for our skinny tree, and this year it's really looking great. Each ornament has a story behind it. It's like the tree looks better with age. It's beautiful! We bought a remote for our tree this year. It was a splurge, but it's the coolest thing! It looks like a key fob for keyless entry to our car but really it turns the lights on and off! hehehehe It's like anti-thieft for our tree!

Bev! I keep trying to comment but my dumb work firewall somehow keeps blocking it! (as it will this attempt, no doubt.) But I continue to try.

On the last post, what I wanted to say was basically - YOU'RE THE SHOPLIFTER, NOT YOUR SON! :) I probably typed different versions of the 3 or 4 times.

Ok, on to your latest. Weren't you and Mark always both crybabies? Oh mostly that was Mark? heheheh. Now there's a family of THREE crybabies! :) Nothing to be ashamed of. But for me sake, just remember that it's ok not to cry too.

Sounds like you had a great Thanksgiving. Hearing all the stuff you guys do makes me miss you guys! We really really want to come over! I hope we have enough vacation and frequent flyer miles saved up by next year's end to bring our 2 kids to play with your 2 kids. heheh Ok - keep writing Bev!! Miss you guys!

Yo, Beav! long time no see. I tend to compulsively check peoples' blogs, so a lot of the stats might be me! Evan is getting so big. He is going to be one of the cutest toddlers I've ever seen, I can tell. And I look at tons of Japanese babies over here!! I think Asian babies are the cutest, but maybe I'm biased >_<
