hey lady! i was wondering if I'd see you on here at some point!

all is dandy. how's erin and noah? (I'll check out your lj to see how you're doing -- but it'll be a bit. I've spent far too long sitting in front of the computer today. My backside is killing me! *grins*)

oh, and how's the new chick doing?

erin and noah are great. noah is incredibly cute and was full of smiles...one of the happiest babies i've ever met. erin was also happy. her hair is still so red! funny how a pregnancy can change other parts of the body. i'm sure you're familiar with that concept! how are you doing? how are the little ones?

the new girl is nice, but quiet. i haven't talked to her much at all, but i am known for being quite quiet myself. i miss your visits to the mailroom, and your vast knowledge about...everything! :)

The crazy pregnant hair usually disappears by 6 months postpartum. I'm really not looking forward to all my hair falling out. It's never looked better, ever ever ever, and I'm so in love with it! (yay for vanity ( ... )
