Sparse

Posts have been sparse as of late - sorry 'bout that...I've been cranking it in real life with various crafty holiday projects, christmas cards, job, finishing the DVD for the film (eeek!), researching more festivals to get rejected by and trying to figure out what we're doing for the holidays. Oh yeah, and planning a Tastefully Simple party (if anyone wants to order anything - let me know!) and a Solstice Celebration all the while sulking about the utter coldness in our house and lack of snow to play in. *sigh* Oh yeah, and going to the Y!

I won tickets yesterday to see Al Franken when he was in town today. He did his radio broadcast from UMD (my alma mater) actually from MPAC - the theater there where I spent many many many hours. Sadly, I could not get out of work from 11-2 to go see his show. Steve went but I haven't talked to him yet to hear how it was. I did listen on the radio...

And I'm hungry. I better grab a bite to eat before I go to the Y and there will be hot and cozy stew waiting for me upon my return - crock pots rock.

I made pot roast in my crock pot yesterday! I love coming home to the smell of a cooking dinner.

I figured it out....

and IT'S A GIRL!! I'll do a proper introduction later and the whole story and everything but in the meantime, we had a baby girl. 2:15pm on Friday afternoon (I posted at, what? 10;30am? You do the math!!). Her name is Dahlia Marie and she weighed in at a whopping 6lbs even. 19 1/4" long and so incredibly gorgeous (although, I might be a wee bit biased). The birth was the most amazing experience I've ever been through and my mind is still, well, blown, quite frankly. I am so tired though...time for a quick nap before we try to feed again.

Privacy, please!

Well, the time has come. After 6 1/2 years (!?) Naturally Optimistic will be going private at the start of the new year. If you are interested in still reading my INCREDIBLY exciting posts & commenting on my cute children, email me & I will put you on the invite list. Like I said - it won't happen for another couple weeks, but there ya go. Time to make a change. I'm kind of sad because I've met some cool people - randomly - by having this blog....but the phase of putting all my stuff out there for everyone to read is over. Thanks!
