afternoon

well- i'm not sure what to do... my amazon order is delayed and i'm unsure if i'm going to have my gifts for aidan, maggie, laurel and nora. the good news is- the one most into gifts and cognizant of who is giving him what is aidan. this is good news b/c i have promised to build a fire, make a tent, eat ice cream and have a good ole' fashion sleep over and i suppose that could pass as my gift. but i got him this sweet book making kit that i think he will love. so i'm a bit bummed.

nora, maggie, matt and andrea came for lunch today at the office. maggie, who just turned two sang at the top of her lungs for the majority of the time. she sings songs including, 'i love for the father', 'take me out to the ball game', 'twinkle twinkle little star' and a variety of others. today's selection what 'i love the father'. she was in that great haze state where you've fallen alseep in the car and wake up super happy and smiley. she is wonderfully spunky.

my brother in law is teaching charles about all this stuff around the house. should be an interesting/ exciting debrief w/ charles this evening.
