Super What?

Anybody else catch that sporting event that was on this weekend? Neither did I...but I did eat a lot of food.

This weekend went by way too quickly. Friday was Aunt Liz's birthday; we had a really nice low-key dinner for her at home. John and I bought her a cheetah print snuggie because we're mean like that and Audrey got to eat some of the cake she and Grandma made for The Goon. All in all: a very pleasant evening.

Friday night, Angela drove in to drop off Hannah and she brought Tina and David with her. Hannah is going to be spending three weeks with us in the nut house to help out with Bailey. (read: play dress up and color with Audrey) I've been joking that it's more of an opportunity for her to be an only child again for a few weeks. It ain't easy being the oldest of five kids. Add in the fact that she loves to bake (like crazy ridiculous things my sister and I would think of) and Angela really will be lucky if I let her go back home.

It was so much fun seeing how well Audrey interacts with Tina and David too. The were running around the house together and David even carried Audrey around for a while--they both looked petrified. Classic!

Sunday was Bailey's second week of church; she still made a few squawks and protests, but nothing nearly as hilarious as last week. Obviously, the entire day after that was a blur of barbecue, good friends, football and babies. The men officially took over the Man Cave and the women and children ran amok in the pool room. It was horridly, stereotypically segregated...and I had a fantastic time. On that note, I'm now determined to host a chick flick night in which the women watch a cheesy romantic comedy in the man cave while the menfolk are forced to supervise the children. We'll let them watch ESPN muted on the 'little' TV. Who's in?

p.s. Don't forget to check out the new album for February

Wait wait wait...who's the oldest of 5 children...Audrey? If so, I must have taken a longer nap than I thought I did ;-).

I'm all for a girl's night. I'll start driving now.
