Dane tells me I’m losing credibility with all six of you by not updating Audrey’s age in the sidebar there. I can’t imagine that anyone noticed, but: there you go! All fixed. Now she’s two, in real life and in my sidebar.
(Imagine transition here.)
Audrey was up every hour or so last night with nightmares. I have no idea why or what they were about, just that they were “scary” and that she didn’t want to go back to sleep ever, ever again. I’m a little depressed that a two-year-old can imagine something so terrifying that she would stay awake all night to avoid it. She slept in my arms for a while, but she’s been clingy and tired all day today. Sadie, on the other hand, slept all night long. Because that makes perfect sense.
(Imagine another transition here. Also feel free to sympathize with the sleep woes.)
Saturday was my little sister’s eighteenth birthday, which of course makes her officially an adult. An adult who can’t drink, I’ll grant you, but an adult nonetheless. We had dinner with her and a few of her friends, at least one of whom spent far more energy than necessary worrying that Sadie might drool at her. (Not to worry, Sadie has no velocity to her, um, fluids. She’ll get me, but not you.) Happy birthday, sis! Now you can register to vote.
(Imagine transition here, maybe a clever one this time.)
We had an exhausting Easter celebration, first at church and then at my parents’ house. I had hoped to post a picture, but I don’t think we took any. Apparently I can either get all four kids dressed and in the right place at the right time, OR I can remember nonessential elements like the camera and the food. In neither scenario do I remember the diaper bag.
(Imagine humorous conclusion. You’ve been very helpful. Thank you.)
He is so wrong. you could NEVER lose credibility with us!
And really, why didn’t he just change it for you? That would be a nice favorly thing to do for your wifey pooh…
And btw, there have to be at LEAST 12 people reading b/c your family alone is more than 6! hee!
I can barely remember my own kids’ ages, I didn’t notice.
I wouldn’t think anyone would notice.
I’m assuming he was joking. Since when do I have credibility?
your transitions were FANTASTIC… mostly b/c I go to make them up
I’m a secret reader- new commenter and I did NOT notice

I’m digging the transitions, too.
Funnily enough, I did notice the age change. I feel compelled to check every time, as if somehow your kids will fast-forward. This indicates more about my insanity than your credibility.
And kudos on the transitions. What good is a blog if there’s no audience participation anyway?
See, I maintain a sidebar just for you, Diana. That’s how much I care.
