Happy Birthday, Lisa!

Since it was, apparently, Lisa's birthday today, Trevi and Clara pulled out all the stops for the grand celebration. There was a healthy feast of fruit and vegetables, followed by a collection of sweets topped with whipped cream.
After the party, Trevor built Lisa a special track. She will awake tomorrow to find it waiting for her. Then, we'll have to convince Trevi to move the track elsewhere, so we won't keep tripping over it.
Meow Meow, Lisa!

The Jumpy!

We haven't had the jumpy out in ages and ages, so today seemed like the perfect day. We got the thing when Chad was leaving for Vanuatu, and I was home with 3 1/2-year-old Clara and infant Trevor. I needed a way for Clara to burn off some steam without leaving the house. I probably owe my sanity to this jumpy.
Nowadays, we kind of break the rules of operation. The kids love to be inside while it inflates and deflates. Trevi loves to threaten to turn it off while his beloved sister is inside jumping.

I'm still here!

To the few, the proud, the "Stuff" readers: Tara, Helen, Eunice, Nancy, Irene, and Ashley (ETA: and Apryl) (ETA: and Miriam!), :)

I'll be back on track with the blog soon. I have a bunch of posts lined up and ready to go, but I've been busy making a class website and getting ready for school, so all of my computer time has been eaten up lately. Keep checking back, because I think I may have some free time on Wednesday night, so I can play catch up then. :)

And thanks a ton for missing me! Who knew that anyone but me would find it interesting to read all of this stuff? I'm so glad you're enjoying it! :)

BTW, what I usually do is log in every day and type a few words to help me remember what I want to say about that day, and then I get back to it when I have more time. Lately, I seem to be letting days upon days pile up before I actually get around to finishing and publishing them. So, that's why you've been seeing nothing, nothing, nothing, then BAM! Seven new entries in one day! I'll try to be more of a one-a-day kind of blogger from now on... :)
