I'm baaaaaaack.

Wow, I haven't posted in almost a month. Mostly cuz I didn't wanna. And mostly cuz I've been too tired. I mean, for reals people! My job is killing me. Or just wearing me out. Whatevs.

Soooooooooooo, what's been going on? The Cubs made their first off-season signing yesterday by signing David DeJesus to a 2 year deal. He's apparently gonna be their starting right fielder. Having never heard of him before, Robin and I of course, did some very important research on him (ie-checked to see if he was hot or not). Good news ladies, he is a delicious piece of eye candy and has Carlos Pena-worthy dimples. Jury is still out on whether or not he has Carlos Pena's ass, however. From what I'm reading, it's a pretty good signing. I don't really know. I just know I have full blind faith in the Theo Trio.

So, Thanksgiving was last week. Gobble, gobble. Hope everyone had a delightful holiday. I was on vacation all last week as is my yearly tradition, so of course, every day was delightful to me. I started the week running fun errands like going to the oral surgeon for a follow up appointment (yes, three weeks ago I had to have emergency dental surgery. It was not a good day. I did enjoy the Vicodin, however.). On Wednesday, my parents arrived in town and the fine family fun began. I got to spend a lot of QT with the fam including my favorite kiddos, my niece and nephew. Rylan is now 3 months old and just as cute as can be! And.....he rolled over for the first time! He scared himself when he did it, but our boy is officially a roller! He is a very smiley, happy little guy. If his smile doesn't melt your heart, then you have no soul. Kendall is a very active and, um, precocious 2 and a half year old. She is so funny and constantly entertains us all. I particularly enjoy it when she stands on the fireplace, Dora microphone in hand, and yells "are you ready to rock and roll?". I mean, what 2 year old says that???? Another fun Kendall-ism: this past Sunday was Rylan's baptism. My brother and I have the honor of getting to be Ry's godparents, so we were standing in front of the entire church along w/K, and my sis and bro-in-law during the actual baptism. After the pastor did the whole water bit, K says "way to go Ry!". It was hilarious. All week we kept asking her what was going to happen on Sunday and she'd say "they put water on his head".

Tomorrow night, Aunt Kerri is watching both kids by myself for the first time. Should be interesting. I think I can handle it. I love being around those kiddos SO much.

Today we can officially say that Cubs Con is NEXT MONTH! OMG, I am so freakishly excited, I can't hardly stand it!  Forget Christmas excitment, bring on meeting my Cubbies!
