Baby Fever

Miss Ella | I really wanted to steal that sweet girl, don't let me smile fool you
Camped out in the living room with a flashlight | New desktop background at work 

This weekend we welcomed Miss Ella to the family. Andy's cousin Ben and his wife Nikki (who also happen to be two of our best friends) are proof of people going into parent mode the instant of the birth of a child. Ben has perfected "the canopy", which is a move he created in which he cradles his arms under Ella as she is being passed from person to person, you know... just in case. They are going to be the best parents.

We also fixed all of our electrical issues with some help from the utility company. I spent most of the time sans power camped out in our living room with my iPad and a flashlight. That picture above is of the light fixture in our living room, which is original to the house.


In celebration of National Coming Out Day, here are 15 amazing quotes. Including the Silver Fox himself.

Also my favorite tweet of the week: 
@arrypottah: Happy National Coming Out Day. Gilderoy Lockhart, we are waiting.

Shiba Inu live puppy cam? OKAY!

Gossip Girl came back this week. For the last season. Ever. If Chuck and Blair don't end up together... we are going to have serious problems.

I want one of these. Andy agreed.


Tonight we are going to go eat some delicious cajun food and tomorrow we are going to a fancy shmancy silent auction event. Jeal? Don't be. We can't afford to bid on any of the fancy items, ha. 

What are your weekend plans?

The picture of your light looks like it's from a scary movie...it's creepy.

I gave birth over the weekend, too! To a bastard kitty.

That light fixture makes me drool. Amazing.

I'm so glad you got your lights back! I finally watched GG last night and had a panic attack thinking that B&C might not end up together. I'm almost 30. I should stop it.

I have a great solution to your baby fever! Go out to eat with 6 other couples and their toddler children around nap time. You'll be wanting to book a tube tying appointment ASAP lol ;)

I sometimes get baby fever too! And I'm sad that this is the last season of Gossip Girl. Only 9 more episodes :(
