Some Cute Kids
Some cutie-patooties to start off the post...
Everything is going pretty well here, except I'm still getting sick occasionally (boo). We had our 16 week pregnancy check up last week, and everything looks pretty good- still down two pounds, but the uterus is at the right height, baby's heart rate was 138 (boy?), yadda yadda :-) Aili is doing a little better at being left places- usually she throws a huge crying fit if you will whenever we leave her at the daycare or Mops group, but lately I have been able to talk to her about how she is going to play with her friends and I am going to play with mine, there is no crying, and I will be back soon to pick her up. So, she is slightly more accepting of this.
In other news, Uncle Sam is currently NOT my friend. We owe $2800 in taxes whaaaattt? We paid so much in taxes this year, only claimed 1 dependent between the 3 of us...sucky. Did you know there is an income limit for the child tax credit? Yeah apparently we don't get it, which is totally unfair! I'm not sure how we ended up in some "wealthy" category, because we're not. I should be rolling in a new mercedes or something! Bummer. Oh well- I guess it's only money. On the to-do list for the next few weeks is tulip field visiting and Jeff is trying to get the work on the boat done before summer (Lord please let him get it done...he is so determined he will be majorly bummed if he doesn't 'meet his goal!')
That's it for today :-)

Those are cute pics. I love how you made Aili's background all black and white. Also like the new pictures at the top. And the tagline. :) Glad you are feeling mostly better... also glad I can leave comments again... and you already know how I feel about your terrible tax woes. That is more unfairness than I can shake a stick at. (I'm trying out some of my parent's silly phrases. I figure I might as well accept that I am going to turn into them now that I am a parent myself).

Oh thanks. I think my darlin' is pretty cute (most of the time...) but I must confess I am biased. Actually I really need to convert the color on Aili's hands in that picture...oh well.
An ode to your father- If you want to catch a bear... (Know where I'm going with this?)
