Sorry I've been AWOL.

I won't even begin to list the things that have kep me/us busy enough to warrant 2 weeks without a blog entry. We've been here and mostly healthy (Seth has the sniffles), but goodness, things have been nuts.

But I just had to share our exciting news! (And for those of you who automatically jumped to the conclusion of Baby #2 -- false alarm. =) The HPT I took yesterday was negative -- a beautiful, glaringly stark white. Whew!)

No! The great news is that my backyard is a disaster area. Why is that good? Because it means the POOL IS DOWN!!! Yipee!!

Check it out:

Isn't it great? =)

So that's how Jim started his Memorial Day weekend. Me, I rearranged the living room -- gotta love new floor plans for summer -- and Seth hung out in his 'saucer on the porch. Fun times! Hope y'all have a great holiday weekend!
