Happy 2007

Well, we had a productive year and for the first time got holiday cards out. Even though they were late as the blizzard of 2006 stopped mail for several days. Now we are enduring the first snowstorm of 2007 and school was cancelled so I'm working from home...technically speaking as I'm writing on this.

Let's see what's new. Eban is definitely in 9 month clothes as he's 21 pounds. He now likes the bath and loves to bang his left fist into the water and watch the splashes it makes. It's pretty entertaining. I'm thinking he could be a lefty but we'll see.

Since returning from the trip to DC and Chicago, our cat has been awfully friendly. She's now just over three years old and now she follows me around like a dog. I'm not sure what to make of this and it's a complete change from our "mean cat." She actually jumped in my lap when I was feeding and burping Eban one night. I was absolutely stunned as she has never done this before in her life. She did it the next night so I'm thinking after three years with us, she's finally turning into a normal cat and not just a mean barnyard cat. I have welcomed this new change in Sadie. But she still hates Seamus...poor thing, all he wants to do is be friends with her and she smacks him around. I'm hoping to get that on video some day as it's funny to see a 3 pound cat beat up a 160 pound mastiff.

Here are some pics from our recent vacation...enjoy!
