Kitchen Nightmares

I have a new favorite reality show. Yes, I am still in love with Vh1 reality shows. However, my new favorite show is Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares on BBC America in the afternoon. I've worked in enough kitchens as a waitress to appreciate it. Plus, Ramsay swears well, as much as I do. I find this endlessly charming.

Static Electricity

Now that the heat is really running, the house is dry. My hands and feet are stubbornly parched, no matter how much I moisturize. I got up twice for water last night. The worst part though is the static. Aaron & I can't touch one another without painfully shocking ourselves, and we've zapped Annika plenty. The best part is the three-way family shock when passing the baby, and conducting more than a few volts, between us. Time for the dehumidifier.

Winter Sports Conundrum

Aaron and I were discussing which sports to follow until baseball's opening day,now that football season is nearly over. My conclusion? I dislike hockey and basketball so much that I've decided to follow NASCAR. And English Premier League Soccer. Go Manchester United! I blame Aaron. :)

Annika at 7 weeks

I took some new photos of Annika this past weekend. Some are posted below. Click on one of the pictures to visit my Flickr site to see more.

The kid is amazing. :)

Happy 2009!

I try to be amused

Or maybe it's just gas.

Ingenue Annika

Check out the Flickr Account . . .

Because there are just too many cute photos of this kid. It's impossible to pick just one.

Cat, Kid, Husband

Ichiban burrowed under the blanket to cuddle up with Aaron and Annika. He's never far away from Annika, especially when she's with Aaron.

The video for "Love is a Battlefield" came on VH1 Classic the other day and Ichiban jumped up to join the action.
