* Andy moved his studio into the B room at Sputnik - a great studio owned by a great friend in a great location allowing for separation between home and work which is, well, great.
* I'm in my first bookclub which meets tonight. We're discussing the first half of "Prince of Tides" by Pat Conroy.
* Ella sometimes goes to the bathroom on the big potty.
* Sadie just cut her fourth tooth. She grinds all four of them together constantly. It makes me feel like a crazy person.
* I decided to boycott doing laundry for a week and a half. The end result - 12 (count em) loads of laundry to be done. I'm on load 9. When I was single, I couldn't have gotten 2 loads of laundry dirty in that time if I tried. Life changes, though, and I am no longer paying $287.50/month in rent living on mac and cheese and taking naps every Sunday afternoon.
* Ella wants to live on mac and cheese.
* Sadie's taking 2 naps a day, including Sunday afternoon.
* Sunday night Andy and I did about 5 loads of laundry, and while I stain-sticked and he folded we watched "Little Miss Sunshine." He wrote a great blog about it here.
* Ella likes to play her "guitar" (it's actually a baritone ukulele) like an upright bass and sing "Jesus Loves Me." Loudly.
* Sadie is Almost crawling. Or walking. I'm really not sure which will come first. Keep in mind she's seven months old.
* I have an imaginary maid named Mona.
* Andy and Ella read "Leonardo the Terrible Monster" almost every night. They read "Curious George Goes to the Zoo" every night.
* I read "Curious George Flies a Kite" with Ella almost every day before naptime.
* Ella watches an episode of "Curious George" the cartoon every day.
* Sadie belly laughs if you play peek-a-boo with her. And is the happiest baby alive. And has two dimples that show when she smiles. Which is all day.
* My children seem to rarely wear shirts.

Our child rarely wears shirts too! I keep wondering how there is still so much laundry since that is the case around here also. I'm doing a load even as I type.
