Haven't posted for a few days, so I just thought I write really quick that Isa cut a top tooth last weekend. That brings the grand total to 3! We had a visit from our neighbor Katy and her 20 month son. It's nice to know that he's not a big talker yet. Isa seems content pointing and grunting at this time. For now it gets the job done!

I've been at the UofO helping the League of Women Voters to get students to vote in the student body elections. It's a nice change of pase, but my piles at work to add up!

We've all been sulking around the house emerging whenever the sun shines! I'm getting excited about spending some time in the garden, trying to finish up all of last years projects, so we can begin to enjoy the yard.

We've also been dreaming up ideas for a weekend get away or two. I think we are both feeling the need for a family vacation. Preferably one with room service!

The heat returned to our house Saturday. We propmtly cranked it up to 75 until our toes thawed out.
Saturday we went for a long walk with Raven and Cheikh. I should stress the LONG aspect of that, because none of us were able to move much afterwards!
By Sunday our cheery dispositions were returning with the sunshine. We have decided though that we are ready for summer!

We stayed with Hanni last night, as we still didn't have power. It was nice to be warm! When we came home this morning the power was back up. The neighbors across the street still don't have power, but I think our side does. We can also offer spare beds to anyone who needs a woarm place tonight, as well as refrigerator space for peoples parishables! Lots of Warm Hugs to All!

We braved the storm last night, but are still without major power. I say major, because some of our lights come on very weakly. Although we have gas heating the thermostate is electric, so no heat yet. There was a tree down on a power line the next street over, so when that's cleaned up we'll probably be back up and running. We spent most of the evening in frount of the fireplace eating sandwiches and drinking wine. Other than no hot showers, I could almost get used to it!
The power's up at work just fine, but I cleaned up several sticks and "tree debris" from the parking lot. I also picked up a huge bunch of misletoe (?) that had fallen from the office oak. A neat little trophy of the storm.
Robbie went off to walk the mall this morning to check on all the ladies there. They are all so spirited that I'm sure the weather didn't even phase them!
We're off to Isa's 1 year Dr. apt this AM. Most shots I'm sure.

We had a great time at Destin's birthday on Saterday. Isabell enjoyed seeing kidos her own age. I'm afraid this doesn't happen very often, and she can get a little weirded out by it all.
Robbie and Isa visited Tiny Tots with Jamie and Sam last week. There's still a long waiting list, but Robbie thought it might be a fun thing to do.
Work has been slugging along, with trial after trial, but thanks to the mirical of coffee I make it through!
