Original subject line, yes? Thank you.

I think today they are going to narrow down the number of babies in the contest to 400. Yeah, I’m going to be asking you to vote for Oliver for a lonnnng time.  I looked at the rules today and man, they really drag this thing out. But that’s fine. This week it’ll be 400 babies, next week 300, then 200, then 100, then 50, then 25, then oh man it’s never going to end, but eventually (I think in two months) you’ll be voting between two babies. Oliver and Millie. Hee! Won’t this make a great story at their wedding?

Kristina and Mike are in town right now. We’ve spent basically the entire weekend eating. I do mean that literally. They flew in Saturday night, and we went to Port of Call for burgers and baked potatoes. Sunday morning was breakfast at Brennan’s. And then last night, we had dinner at a place called Luke. They’re flying back this afternoon, but not before I meet them for lunch at Acme Oyster House.

Tomorrow, I shall eat salads all day long. For real.

On another topic, isn’t it neat that in the six months that I’ve had this blog on wordpress, I’ve gotten over 100,000 hits? I think I might be as big as Google. Just saying.

The boys are enjoying their new playroom. It’s the most awesome playroom ever, just in case you were wondering.

Admittedly, this corner is the only one that looks this fancy. I have a lot of stuff to get rid of before I can make the rest of the room this fun. Thanks to Lisa for helping me put up the magnetic board, and thanks to Grandee for giving the boys those neato bookcases for Christmas.

And from a week ago, my favorite picture from our trip to the zoo. We were trying to get all five of the babies who went (four year old Alison also went, but she was too cool to be in this picture.)

I just love the crawling legs in the bottom right corner of the picture. That would be Chloe and Miles, trying to run away together. And see Oliver and Millie conspiring together on the left? Hmmm…
