What Keeps Us So Busy

Here are just some of the activities that prevent more frequent blog updates.

1) Playing ball. Outside is, of course, best, but ball anywhere is, well, a ball.

2) Saving lost pets. Solomon discovered this kittie at our back door. Her name is "Feebie" and she lives two blocks away. She was wearing a color with a tag, so we called her people. When I said I had Feebie at my house, the woman said, "Who is this?" Like it mattered. When I explained, she offered to send her ex down to pick the kittie up. "She must have gotten out this morning." We kept Feebie on the porch via Mili's leash. Hey, you gotta do what works.

3) Planning Solomon's future. It's so bright... 4) Celebrating Mother's Day. What a perfect present! I don't think I'll be needing that gift receipt.

5) Swinging.

6) Practicing walking. The nice lady at daycare says Solomon has ventured up to 8 steps, but only when he thinks no one is looking. We can get him to do 5 or 6 at home, before he collapses into a giggling ball. We've told him that he's expected to walk by Memorial Day.
