Friday Photos: Last week of January
Tim rides bike to work almost ever morning despite fridgid temperatures. The real bonus to this, aside from saving boat loads of money, and leaving me the the car, is that his company started to include "particulate matter" in declaring "action air days." It used to be based more on heat and sweltering factors...but now....now we have chances for him to earn free lunches for me! So far he has earned two this month.
Cullen came over for a little play date. Morella thought about being embarassed at the state of the house, but then figured that they could actually do worse. Guess what? They did! However it was the perfect prod I needed to be able to clean the crap off the floor and vacuum later on. It's amazing what a vacuum job does to the living room. Makes it look clean and livable.
Baby Boy -- yet unnamed. This is now the fourth baby I have known/met that hasn't had a name when I met it. It just baffles me how folks have nearly 9 months to make a decision on the kids name ... and then don't do it. If anything, it makes the name they DO get in the end half hapzard and sloppy with barely any time given to it at all.
The new family. Congratulations to Stephanie and Bill!

Ohmigosh, look at Cullen walking around!
I, too, am amazed by how much a vacuum job can freshen the overall look of a room. It's like the vacuumed carpet reflects more light or something. I hate mopping, but that, too, really makes a difference once I've done it. I should really get myself in gear and clean all our windows and storms this spring, inside and out. I bet the effect would be astonishing. Maybe my "nesting" phase will get that extreme.

Wow, now all of us know how you feel about the names we chose! For the record, most people have a handful of names they like, they just have to choose one that fits. Hmph!
Hooray for photos!
And hooray for Tim riding to work, his employer rewarding this action, and for you gettin' the goods! When we lived closer to town, my dad rode to work every day, rain, snow, cold, hot, whatever. This spring, he may buy a small motorcycle...
I think kids have a particular knack for messing up a room with the least amount of effort yet maximizing the messiness. I don't know how they do it.
Happy weekend.
The problem I'm running into with hypothetical boy names is that I want something uncommon and striking that's not going to get him beat up.
I think Cullen is perfect! I hadn't heard it before, it's strong, and it isn't weird.

Is Tim waving? giving you a thumbs up? Or flipping you off in that picture?
;)
