post-holiday update

My parents got me a digital camera for Christmas, and I can't stop taking pictures...I love it. Anyway, here's what I've been up to lately (in a Stenson-style bullet-point format with some photos):

1. Taking one of my first digital self+"porkchop" digital photo--Brenden's developed quite the fake smile (and I've developed quite the old-lady dimples):









2. Baby-sitting Brenden and Jaxson at our condo for the first-time (many little fingerprints on the mirrors):











3. Playing trains.










4. Wishing I could sleep like this, while taking my stress out on a nuk (like Jaxson's showing here):










5. Getting my first exercise in 1.5 months at indoor training with Baba (and Paula and Matt):













6. Going to a post-operative appointment and sneaking a photo of my x-ray with my phone after the doc left the room (notice the chunk of bone missing there? I thought he just "re-shaped" it?...and I thought it was on the underside of the bone?...details):











7. Trying to plan a warm weather vacation yet this winter...leaning towards the Dominican Republic again, but I'm open to suggestions/recommendations!

8. Watching the entire first season of The Sopranos in less than a week (Pete got the DVD's for Christmas)...damn, is that show addicting. And I have a question for all of you Sopranos fans who remember the first season--I'm trying to figure out why I recognize Mikey, Junior's first-hand man. Was he on the X-Files?

9. We also finished watching the first season of Scrubs, and I just bought the first season of Entourage...DVD's are totally the way to watch TV (is that an oxymoron?).

10. Marveling at the fact that my friend Chuck just climbed Kilimanjaro!!! He said it was the hardest thing he's ever done, and the only thing that kept him going was the Summit beer he had brought along to drink once he hit the summit...I bet that was the best Summit he's ever had.

Thanks for reading!
