Hi. My name is Allison and sometimes I forget to blog for oh...two months or so. But, this is my blog and if I want to stare at a wall for two months instead of blogging, that is my problem. Also, my laptop will not connect to the internet and the other computer is ancient and located in what I lovingly refer to as "Mike's hovel". So needless to say, it is not exactly where I want to spend time.
MissMcGee/Beebee/Bean/Nora is a week and a few days shy of a year old and we spent Memorial Day doing exactly what we did last Memorial Day - with Mike's family at the cabin. The major difference this year was not our little addition, it was the fact that I was not pregnant and dying of heat exhaustion in 400 degree weather. Which I appreciated. Functioning in 90 degree weather with an actual 6 lb 98.6 degree body in your belly is not entirely comfortable. I prefer her on the outside. Plus, she's cute. Oh, and SPOILED. In case you don't believe me...
Grandma and Grandpa Carroll just got a brand new car. It has a TV and DVD player. And a one year subscription to a bunch of cartoon channels. Lucky kid. My brother and I used to have to fight for fun on road trips.
On the canoe. There was much yelling after Mommy made her stop drinking river water. (And yes, she does have a life vest. Also, the water is about three feet deep).
Nora does not sleep particularly well at the cabin. So I'm a wee bit exhausted in the morning. Thankfully, mornings tend to go like this: Nora cries. Nora nurses. Mike wanders out to the screened in porch where his parents have been awake for hours and hands over a granddaughter. We proceed to go back to sleep for a few hours. Nora and grandparents proceed to go fishing.
I finally found a Tonka truck (for $1...woot). Nora had expressed an interest in on in the waiting room at the doctor's a few months ago. (She also expressed interest in a Reader's Digest subscription card).
We ended the weekend with a trip out on Grandpa's new fishing boat. Nora was not amused by the life preserver.

Chillaxin' in the hammock. Right about before she rolled off.
