I do have to work sometimes! Haha. To be honest, DH thinks I spend too much time with you all. I told him it is just b/c he is no fun.  :P Oh well, I think he spends too much time on Fantasy Football.

I'm spending a lot of time on here today because I don't want to vacuum.. but now I have to or I'll be upset with myself later on.. I was playing with my son's pet rats earlier so that kept me entertained on this dreary Texas day.. they are so funny eating marshmallows, unlike a hamsters they don't have pouches, so they try to hold them all the little puffy things in their hands and against their chest.. oh god I'm having fun with rats.. geez.. I'm going to go vacuum now.

If sounds foreign coming from my mouth... you will never hear me say.. wow that looks like great fun.  But for the first time today I did get my heart rate up :)

Pen, I didn't know either so I googled it. It says "vacuuming" is 1. a space entirely devoid of matter.

Exactly.  And that's what a vacuum cleaner is for ... cleaning vacuums.

They arrived a little early didn't they?  Glad to hear they are both healthy.. how is the mom doing?  How is the grandma doing? :)

Congrats, Tara!! Very exciting! Hope everyone is doing well!

Tara

Thanks everyone,

Mom is doing as well as expected I guess given she had a C-section.
Grandma is good and DS seems the happiest I've seen him in a long time.
