Overalls and Sports bras

Chris and I headed south to Indianapolis to check on all things Greta.  She is still resting comfortably in the puppy patch at the Community North NICU.  Not short of friends, Greta has her posse laying with her: Deondra the Purple Puppy that sings lullabies, Tay-Tay the Pink Rabbit and Quita the pink bunny-holder-rattle-thingie.  Truthfully, Greta's bestie is Deondra because they go way back (they both get their weaves snapped at Shortie Tim's Hair Braiding and Pawn Shop on 59th and Lynwood).

We're all hoping the Norton Ohana can permanently check out of the 6th floor Thursday.  I'm sure Beans and Biscuit want their parents back.  Plus, they haven't met their new baby sister yet!

I'm having a hard time finding things to write about because the birth of little miss niecelet has stolen the spotlight.  Below are a list of things which have taken place in the past week of so:

1.  Chris and I planted flowers.  Since we agree to disagree on "our vision of what the yard should look like," I have secretly planted some flower seeds here-and-there for a few bursts of surprise color.  I think today I will start to plan a long term layout of what I WANT the yard to look like next summer.

2.  Wedding planning is pretty much done.  The big stuff is taken care of and vendors are starting to get balance money.  The little things; guest room blocks, bridesmaid dress ordering, and small details are things I am fretting.

3.  Honeymoon?  What honeymoon?  If anyone out there wants to loan me a few Gs to hit up Anguilla, feel free. 

4.  I need my hair colored.  I have roots and I'm beginning to look like I could fit in at any crummy mall.

5.  Kasia has developed a taste for cedar mulch.  She likes to bring appetizers in from the yard.
