munchin' munchkin

Amidst all the insanity around here, I thought I'd take a couple moments to post some pictures of Ruby truly enjoying herself. This little lady loves loves loves to eat. Breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner...doesn't matter. It's all good. (Except for eggs, which is too bad since my favorite go-to meal is scrambling or frying up some. So immediate and easy. Oh well.)

As most of you know, we're moving down to LA in the spring for Jeff's work. If you didn't know, it's because I'm having trouble bridging the gap between the blog and Facebook. Sorry about that. Anyway, stay tuned for the grand introduction of our home on this horrible, credit-scarce housing market, photo tour and everything. It'll be officially listed as of Monday. Know anyone looking for a cute little English cottage on the SF peninsula? We'll give 'em a good deal!

A very fond and sad farewell to John Updike. Whenever I'd see his name in the table of contents of the New Yorker, I'd deviate from my usual cover-to-cover approach and read his article first. That and the fact that his collection of early short stories is the only book I've managed to finish since becoming a parent 4 years ago. Sigh. I will miss his words.


Perfectly content.

Breaking in the new table from Ikea.

Running off with Levi's car and pull-up.

of course, we can't forget the dog!

We just couldn't resist.

Here are some funny outtakes from that photo session...



I'm keeping my fingers crossed that 2009 is a good one for all our peeps (that's you!). If anything, look forward to the AWESOME card we've got planned for next Christmas. This was the one we sent out in 2007. Glory be to Photoshop!
