Baby Baby!

Hello everyone! Lots of things have been happening to me since June, and Ive been a bad, bad blogger. Don't blame it on the kidlet, its actually my fault. 1st my computer hates me, 2nd I got a new camera that has a special cord for downloading pictures, 3rd blogger sucks. The perfect storm of a crap-ass computer, with harder than usual camera downloading and blogger's ability to post my pictures and text together less than stellar-ly (new word I just made up) has added up to less blogging. If the technical part of all this was easy-peasy, I would definitely blog more often. I swear! He he.... Anyways, lots has been going on around here.

1st I have gotten tons of questions on how Lauren is faring with the arrival of our dear son. Well here it its, they really don't care about each other. Its kind of disappointing, but at this time they just don't give a hoot about each other. Lauren will lick his foot when we come home if we tell her to "tell Coleman hello", but that is it. Its fine by me though, she is after all an animal (which I seem to forget sometimes) and I am looking forward to a time when they will co-mingle on their own term without being coerced. All of this is of course because of the fact that the week I brought the baby home a family pet in the news snatched a baby out of a crib because it thought the baby was a toy. I don't want to be the "I told you so" family so they are getting to know each other on their own terms. Lauren of course is not being ignored at all. (another question I get asked alot) We are going out of our way to make sure she is getting everything she needs. Our dear friend and pet Riley passed away a few weeks ago, and Lauren had a stomach flu for about 3 weeks, so we are making sure she has almost double the attention than before the baby came. We didn't want her to feel left out, those are the ones that go crazy one you!

2nd My good friend Tara is expecting, congrats Tara! And she is upset I am not blogging more. I prefer blogging to facebook, but have been posting a few pics there in the interim because my phone has facebook on it (which I hate), but it makes it easy to update.

3rd I just went back to work on Sept 8th. Whew after 10 weeks off, I was definitely trying to figure out a way to work from home, like that 'crazy like a fox' fox says I can on TV. They all swear you can make 4000 to 15000 a month. I always wonder if that is net or gross. They never say, I have my suspicions. Work is busy though and that makes the day go by quickly. I am now one of those people who cannot wait for the weekend to hang out with my baby and my girl Lauren, and Jeff if hes home. Its busy busy though. Ill get use to it soon, right?

I will post more soon, I swear. I have lots of fun stuff coming up and pics of a great lace item I made while I was waiting for the baby to come. I have also procured some really great fiber recently, and bonus, the baby loves to zone out and watch the spinning wheel! Oh and Jeff's dad fixed the computer so we are now in business!
