Today Guinness and I have been married for three years! We’re very happy. I miss him.

We’re taking our “Three is a Magic Number” trip to Disney World shortly.

Guinness left at 6:00 a.m. this morning on the long drive to Florida. I don’t get that kind of time away from work and can’t stand long car trips so I’ll be following with Freddie and my Dad by plane on Sunday.

Guinness gets to stay in DW an additional 2 weeks or so after Freddie and I leave. I wish I had a cushy job like his. Lucky man works a few hours a week…from home…AND often makes nearly twice as much as I do.

I’m half asleep at work now. Tired from lack of sleep and crying over Guinness leaving. The five days before I see him again on Sunday are hard to bear…but it’s the 20 days after Freddie and I return that are killing me. Freddie and I get back on the third of November….Guinness on the twenty-third.

I’m stuck between emotions:
sad over being alone on our anniversary and missing my husband,
angry at him for leaving for such a long time before and after our trip,
sleepy from crying and not sleeping,
and extremely excited about a Disney World vacation.

Guinness was very cute this morning when he left. He even had Winnie the Pooh call me to wish luck on our anniversary and upcoming trip. It was very sweet.

I miss him.

I’m a sap.

Bob is visiting. Explains everything right?

She’s too cute!

Freddie says lots of stuff now. Last week I forgot her favorite toy, brown bear, and she found a picture of him on my cell phone. She said “Where Brown Bear? Oh no!” She so freaking cute I can’t stand it. That’s pretty advanced I think for a not-quite 17 month old baby.

I’ve posted more pics. My mom took these but I just slapped them on to my flickr to save a bit of time. The small baby is my 2nd cousin Georgia.

I’m holding an open house right now, but I doubt anyone is going to show.
At least I have my iPhone!

I’ve never posted from my phone before, and I must say it’s not as difficult as I thought it would be.

Freddie is just as cute as ever. I wish she was here with me.

This time the went to Viet Nam.

You can read about it on their blog and their new website.

There are links to both in the column on the right.

Happy birthday me…I’m 29 years old today but I feel much older.

Freddie’s energy level seems to increase as mine is drained.

She’s worth it though.

Here’s a pic of her on a recent trip to Jenner.

This morning Guinness taught Freddie to say please and thank you. Now when she wants another cracker, she points and says “please” immediately followed by a soft-voiced “thank-you” when she receives the cracker.

She’s so amazingly cute I can’t stand it.

Oh…and I finally brought her in for a haircut. Expensive, but they did a good job.

Our friends Steve and Alice just had twins!  I’ve seen the pictures and they are beautiful!  I can’t wait to meet them.

Congratulations!

Last weekend Guinness, Freddie, and I went to Jenner.  It was really nice to get away, even if only for a couple days.  Freddie had tons of fun running through the house exploring.  Freddie also had her first Oreo cookie.  I slpit it in half giving her the side without the cream.  She LOVED IT.  She’s just like her Daddy….see:

She’s so perfect!
