Due to Andiclaus' (pseudo) recent promotion and a strong showing for his company, our little quarterly stock investment was stronger than usual.

It looks like we'll be flying to Chicago instead of driving (yuck!) the end of this month. I'm hoping we'll be able to buy the tickets this weekend and then I will start to feel the excitement of actually going! Until you buy the tickets, it always feels like there's a chance you can bail out at the last minute. Now, we will officially be going! I'm so excited!

I am trying to figure out the sleeping situation. Joshiclaus usually lets us sleep in his bed (because he is SO nice), but last time we went, Alliclaus could still just sleep in her carset. That's not going to work this time. Andiclaus feels fine with her just sleeping in bed with us (mostly because he doesn't want to have to carry the Pack N Play - and really who could blame him?), but we finally have a good sleep situation going and I don't want to destroy it.

Oh well. It will be totally worth it to hang out with Sarah. She's been so busy lately (she has two jobs - she's such a grown-up) that we haven't really had a chance to talk.

Oh, I haven't forgotten about the questions below. It's simply that the one that's there right now will require some thought before I answer it. So go leave others for me. Maybe some that don't have me coming out as the skank I was in undergrad. Thanks!
