Picture Day

I love that Bug's day care does school pictures. And the person they use every year is amazing. I haven't any idea how he got her to sit so still and smile on cue. I'm in awe. And someone from school gets credit for the cute hair. The rest is all Bug.

I'm playing hooky from work today to see the new Potter movie with the family. Uncle Jeff is in town, so we are all going together.

The house is coming together. I have an unreasonable amount of love for our new carpeting. I guess I really have no excuse not to get busy unpacking. I just don't feel like it. But I need to find some things. The foosball table is built and gracing the dining room, since the dining room table is in the eat in kitchen. It all seems to work pretty well. Foosball at our house is a bit unusual since not only are we trying to score goals, we have to dodge the fast-moving hands of our Bug when she tries to steal the ball off the table. She's quite proud of herself when she can grab "my soccer ball", which becomes known as "MYYYYY SOCCER BALL" if she thinks it takes too long to catch (or if we play keep away).

Oh and happy birthday, mom. Today, she would have been 63.
