I actually started this post last year, for our 10th anniversary, and wasn't able to finish it in time. Pregnancy brain/hibernation and all, you know. But here we are, one year later.Where do I start? Rich, you've been my best friend for so long now I don't know what I'd do without you. We started out as

No sooner are we done working for the week than it's back to the grind. Alas, at least I have a job to go back to. And for that I'm grateful. We had a pretty good weekend.

And there was much rejoicing (yay!). She had her six-month checkup yesterday and it went really well (despite the two shots). Her doctor reassured me that we had dodged a bullet --
Dear Coraline: Month 6
Published on 2011-03-23 00:01:00
Dear Coraline, As of 1AM this morning, you turned six months old. I can't believe you're already half a year old (and yes, I'm already thinking about your first birthday party).

My Happy for the Day: Bathtime Fun

I saw this on the Ellen show the other day, and it makes me laugh every time I watch it. This is a good indicator of the kind of thing we can't wait to experience when Coraline's a bit older: bathtime and giggles. Of course, with a dog like Troubadour, she very well may end up sharing the tub if she taunts him with toys. I dare you to watch this and not laugh. I'm pretty sure that's impossible.
