recently.

• evie has become a fan of biting things. need i say more? i mean, really, NEED I SAY MORE!?
• and, i went ahead and dunked her in the pool. she was completely shocked by it and took several minutes to get her bearings, but not a single tear.
• j bubba and i have been working on our relationship. 
• the husband has been stressed to the max getting ready for his upcoming trip to china and his new life as a student/employee/dad/husband/son/slave, etc. i think he is just realizing how hard it's going to be (i swear for a while there he was just thinking it was going to be TRIPS!) wish him luck, folks.
• i have been trying to figure out how i can make him a little study area and provide him with a way to keep all of his shiz organized while he accumulates a million studious things. or in other words, who wants to come to ikea and buy stuff with me?!
• evs and i are preparing to go stay with the parents for a few weeks.
• we've been going to weddings, weddings and more weddings.
• i've been melting into a pile of sweat every afternoon as i carry evie and walk the dogs up and down the aves. but, hey, good workout!
• toby has been sleeping. seriously, that's all.
• we've been waging a war against any and all fruit flies in our home. 4 dead so far. 
• i've been meeting friends for lunch and park time and trying to be a better girlfriend, in general. you here that, ladies!? let's get together!
• and number one on our list of recent activities: a new nephew born just yesterday!
