saida vs. the hanger

first off, i just want to say that this is the first time i've been alone in my house since jan. 10 (the day we got back from Africa). second, they've all been gone about 15 mintues and it's too quiet and want them back right now. they've gone to get hilina's birthday cake since tomorrow she is one! i just can't believe it.

this video is from this morning. saida, brilliant child that she is, got a coat hanger stuck on her shirt. and then she couldn't get it off - you can imagine the drama that ensued.

i've had my first real burst of nesting take over when i woke up this morning and i am happy to report that my house is much cleaner than it was when i woke up. i have a second box of baby clothes ready to mail my sister that i promptly stacked on top of the first box that i've had ready to mail for about, oh 4 months. some day i will get to the post office, some day... we had the best day yesterday meeting with our doula for the first time and just a great day with the girls, will write about it later tonight or tomorrow morning.

So, with all that nesting, is everything ready for little Benny? I forgot to ask you if you have set up a third crib! Yikes! Three cribs!

Happy Birthday, Hilina! And, as of today, Happy Birthday, Ben! Hope the celebration was over-the-top!
