Early

July 19, 2006

The Dyl-pickle is getting so big!

Picklenme

We heart our godson. (This was at the beach — Joni brought her dog, and all the dogs romped. But Dylan stole the show, of course.)

I am at work. It is early, early morning, on my first day of a 60 hour work week. I tell you, unless you have a LOT of coffee, Antiques Roadshow is not going to keep anyone awake when the phones aren’t ringing (not that I’m complaining. This is fire season. The phones have been ringing a hell of a lot lately, and the radios have been blaring. I suppose this is a nice break. But I need more coffee).

    Wow! Long sleeves! Looks like you went to the right beach. And of course with the right adorable godson. I’m glad you’re getting a break, even if you have to fight the sleep. Yawhn (new word)…

    Such a cute couple: a beauty and her godson! And I love his name… my first nephew (who is now 17 and about to start college – eep!), his name is Dylan and we used to call him DylPickle, too!

    That blonde hair just suits you! You look fantastic and the pickle is just adorable. Maybe one day he’ll grow up and marry my friend’s adorable baby. Sweetness!

    I came back to take another look for that thing you were complaining about this morning. I still say it’s not there. It must’ve been some fatigue induced hallucination on your part.
