It seems I’ve been a little lax in the whole ‘preparing for a new baby’ gig. Time to batten down the hatches over here. Let the lists commence!
(Is the Wito chin grab cute or WHAT?)
Happy Holidays!

We are currently in Oklahoma, awaiting the 3 to 7 inches of snow we heard might be making its appearance just in time for Christmas. Wito just might lose his mind in the presence of strange white stuff falling from the sky. We are cautiously optimistic, Mr. Weather! Please don’t disappoint this wide-eyed preschooler!
My father and I are also filming the sequel to this summer’s Candyman, which will be a hard-hitting documentary about my father’s quest to create the Perfect Chex Mix. (And he does make the world’s BEST, trust me.) It will challenge everything you previously believed about chex mix, and we have our fingers crossed for an Oscar nod. Cautiously optimistic.
In the meantime, please enjoy the vocal stylings of Wito. Happy holidays to everyone!

Party Time!

Wito’s birthday party was this weekend and it went off without a hitch. (Must have been a result of all my random 3 a.m. Type A wakings over the past week. “Don’t forget to bring a lighter for the candle!”, “Bring extra paper towels!”, “The Backyardigans balloons need helium first thing in the morning!” Why these things come to me in the middle of REM sleep, I will never know.)
I think Wito had a great time.
God, I will miss those precious front teeth when they fall out.
Making the party super duper special were my visiting parents, sister, brother-in-law and nephew.
I’m pretty sure this is the only existing photo of my sister, the boys and me. I kind of cherish it.
We’re packing it in while everyone is in town – so far we’ve done the birthday thing, drank WAY too many margaritas, visited the fair and hung out at the beach. Next up – a swanky dinner without the kids, a quick trip to the desert and a boat ride around the ocean.
Right now? A quick cat nap.
