The main reason for our loooong absence is that I ran out of space, having used all 1GB of room allowed on the blog. I didn't know such a limit even existed, but alas, after seven years of weekly postings, I'm not surprised to hear I reached a limit of some sort! This will be our new home-- the other will live on (so long as the internet lives on!), but our updates will be here. I'll get around to making it "pretty" soon... for now, I'm grateful to have a solution to my Maxed Out Message!
The other reason for our absence is that we've been busy!!
Thanksgiving at a friend's home with lots of other wee kiddos (one of the kid's tables pictured here)
Here is the little monkey in a photo op that was too reminisnent of another time, not so very long ago, when her sister was caught in the same position (sitting in the pantry with the door closed), committing the same act of sly snackery (eating dates). Click here and scroll down a bit for a time warp to Winnie! You'll see the only difference is the reaction to getting caught. Winona: "uh-oh! Busted!" Jezebel: "Yeah, that's right! I'm THAT good!!!"
Winona is 7! A quiet family birthday and dinner at a neighbor's house marked the day itself. Tomorrow, 9 little girls fly away to NEverland (our house) in celebration of Winnie's big day!
One wonderful gift was an annual family pass to the science factory!! We wasted no time in getting there--we love the "superimpose mirrors." Thank you, Gma and Gpa KooKoo!!!
And, amidst it all, The Elves and The shoemaker which opens tomorrow night!
Yup, it's a pretty fast pace these days, but it's all fun stuff and we'll bring it back down to earth in January...Until then:
On your mark, get set.... GO!!!
