Unexpected joys


Walker: First things first - let's take a moment to marvel at how great Dana looks in this picture. She, despite battling sciatica, looks this wonderful all the time these days.

Next things next - let's take a moment to marvel at the incredible piece of engineering that Chili Bean is lounging in. There have been a couple of unexpected joys during Dana's pregnancy. For instance, yesterday driving home from the tile store we passed by a Krispy Kreme doughnut shop, and I thought to myself, "oh, oh, oh! But it's 4:30, and Dana would never..." when all of a sudden, Dana said, "I think I want one of those doughnuts right now." Two minutes later we were enjoying a couple of chocolate iced glazed.

Another unexpected joy has been the full realization of the power of Craigslist. See that double Peg Perego stroller in the picture - Craigslist, $500 off retail new. And it looks new. Two matching infant car seats with two extra car bases - Craigslist, $300 off retail new. Where will these be sold when the Wonder Twins grow out of them? Craigslist.

Ok, gotta run back to the basement project. More on that later...
