Here's my idea...

I'm going to fly around and then swoop down to eat the goldfish.

Owen is really into birds lately. In general, I'd say he's quite interested in animals, especially those that swim and fly. Today was the first day of spring break for him and he decided he needed to become a bald eagle. I was having flashbacks to making Walter's parrot costume at midnight a couple Halloween's ago and kept putting off O's request. I finally said we'd do it after a good healthy dinner. So after a very good and healthy dinner, we made Owen into a bald eagle. We are having a friend from school over tomorrow and he is certain Nolan will not know who he is when he shows up at our door and Owen is wearing this costume.

We had a lovely weekend together. After two weeks together in Hawaii and nearly two weeks apart, it was great to have some time together again. We got our yard cleaned up - which to the average eye probably still doesn't seem all that clean (courtesy of dear Grif) but to us its, well, descent. We played games, ate meals together and relaxed. Jer and I went to a yummy dinner party on Saturday with some friends we hadn't seen in a while. It was catered by Christo's, who catered our wedding, and was so delicious! Thanks for a lovely (& did I say scrumptious?) dinner, Michelle!

I've managed to see baby Lydia a couple times now. Unfortunately Walter has a cold otherwise I'd be knocking on their door daily. Although I know this isn't all that nice, I have to admit it makes me smile when Lindsay tells me how exhausted she is... One just can't understand how tiring those sweet little things are until they have one themselves. Today Andreas told me he feels like he has a constant hangover. :) She sure is cute, though!
