Eleanor Virginia

we call her Evie (think initials)

born June 17 at 9:55am

7 lbs, 4 oz  (the smallest of the 4)

we are home, all is well - if i had to describe the mood it would be twitterpated

i downloaded a few Kindle books to take advantage of the extra reading time, but admittedly i can't take my eyes off her

back soon - thanks to you all for sticking it out with me.

the end.

Still Livin' Large

Can it be almost a month since I posted here?  I have authored many a blog post in my mind - some about baseball, some books, some about the baby who is yet to arrive. In an effort to play a little catch up, here's the month in review:

BABY

• baby's room is 90% finished  - have to hang a few more pictures, clear the last couple of junk piles, and wait on a chair to get delivered - will post pictures very soon

• she has a name - some of you know, the rest will have to be patient

• i'm wandering  waddling around at 4cm, she is taking her own sweet time...

• from the latest sonogram pictures I think she looks like Caleb - Ernie head & big cheeks

• thanks to the genorosity of friends and family - her closet is full of adorable things and her bookshelf is full

BOOKS

• reviews for  The Lost Hours and April & Oliver on the feed

• went to an Amy Krouse Rosenthal book reading/signing and it was delightful - not only did she sign our books, but she shared where she got her cool shoes, which are now my cool new shoes - i got the pink www.alegriashoeshop.com

• it is with much shame that i admit to not having mailed my June Reading Round Robin book - for the rest of you slackers - get thee to the post office!!

• anyone have a summer reading list? do tell.

BOYS

• summer is in full swing - baseball has ended, camp starts in July

The End.
