My Cup Runneth Over

We've had this box of wine in the fridge for ages...we didn't really like it all that well, but every once in a while we'd pour a half a glass just to try to drink it down. No use in WASTING wine, after all. So it was almost gone and then my folks came up.

My Mom informed me that she finished the box of wine - there was probably only a glass or so left in it, so they REPLACED it for us.

With the same wine.

*sigh* so now we have a BRAND NEW box of the wine we didn't like in the first place.

I think it is incredibly thoughtful & generous of them to REPLACE a box of wine when they were babysitting OUR daughter for FREE for the whole weekend...but I just wish it was a different kind, that's all.

Anyone want a glass of wine?

If you haven't opened it, you can still exchange it.

Seriously.

I know these things. Being a boxed wine drunk.

Isn't that what stitch n bitch and craftapalooza are for? As long as it doesn't smell like fireworks, bring it over on Wednesday, SOMEONE will drink it (esp if Holly is there) and you can drink the fun Wildflower that I have ready to be opened.

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!
