30 Days of Thanks: No Time for Surfing

I hope you aren’t too disappointed, but I’m going to cop out of Saturday Surfing today.  The last few days have been jammed packed, and though good, they were definitely exhausting.  Not only have we been busy here, with friends and toddler fun, but I’ve also been working on websites and getting more active with Papoose (if I can get anyone signed up, I’ll be teaching another breastfeeding class next Tuesday and, I’ve started posting again on the Papoose Blog, which means I’m now blogging twice every week day!)…frankly, I haven’t really had much time for surfing.  I could go dig through the depths of my Google reader now, but I still have to publish a new website for somone tonight, so I think I’m just going to skip Saturday Surfing.  Will any of you miss it?

I will not, though, skip out on 30 days of thanks, because I have to share a photo of this adorable little guy we just met today:Mr. M is Nora’s very best friend Miss E’s new baby brother.  We went to meet him at the hospital this morning, when he was not yet 24 hours old, and he is just the most delicious and adorable little boy ever.  He was so much fun to cuddle, just perfect in every way.

Today, I am thankful for womb-achingly sweet newborns, that my friend Jess had a wonderful birth experience, and that Mr. M (who had a true knot in his cord) arrived here safely.

As if bitty babies are not exciting enough, Nora and I were also invited to an impromptu Indian food potluck.  I’m thankful to have such nice friends here on island, for easy dinners, and a nice evening change of pace.

Now off to work I go, and I’ll be back tomorrow with a better post.

    Can’t wait to see the new restaurant website. And thank you a hundred times over for the awesome new Lovelorn Poets site-redesign – I love it! I’ll be sure to let you know when the positive comments start coming in. 🙂

      I’m so glad you like it! I do too. I always feel like they’re a puzzle to figure out — it’s really fun to do. 🙂

Z was Raja in an Aladdin production through her dance studio @pasgeorgetown this evening and she did such a great job. I loved watching her. She took a year off dance and is getting back into it and you'd barely know she took any time off, plus she had a big smile on her face the whole time - I could tell she was having a ton of fun. ♥️

What happens when you go on a long weekend trip with only your husband, no kids, and no agenda? 

Lots of walking, cocktails in the middle of the day, singing at a piano bar, and time to write a blog post for the first time in nearly two years. Which I did! 

😮 For real. LOL 😊

Today Chris and I have been married for 15 years. We're celebrating with our first weekend away from children while my mom watches all four girls. We rented an old Victorian from the 1800s near the coast in Galveston, Texas and spent the day at a spa, eating delicious food, walking the beach under the stars, and finished the night with a bottle of bourbon saved from when we lived on Nantucket. I'm not sure I could have asked for a much better day. I even had an oppotunity to get out the lightship basket purse Chris gave me for our 5th anniversary. ♥️
