New beginnings

Good morning blogfans! I am well rested after a good night's repose and looking forward to starting a new week. MIL has been with us the last few days and we have thoroughly enjoyed having her here, as usual. Wifey is taking her to the airport today and then we will be back to our nuclear family. After all the babysitting, shopping, cleaning, cooking, and being generally wonderful, we are not going to know what to do without her! We all enjoyed a fantastic dinner last night courtesy of MIL and Giada de Laurentis. Thanks again for the delish fish! We also got to chat with Dr. Kronski and J-Net yesterday and learned they have taken up a new hobby...kayaking! It sounds like they are enjoying it so far, with more delights to come. On the homefront, Annabelle is doing well and gets bigger by the minute. She has taken to wiggling her head around a la Stevie Wonder. I will try to get a video, if possible. Her dexterity level is greatly improved; she catches the pacifier mid-air and returns it to her mouth in one smooth motion. Wild stuff. I hope you are as excited to start your week and that it is full of surprises.
