Happy Anniversary to us!

Wow! It's been 4 years already! It's hard to believe that Ben and I have known each other for 10 years this year... it has gone by so quickly.

This morning was nice and relaxing. Ben didn't have to go to work until noon so we slept in a little and then had breakfast together. Owen had his 6 month check up today (He is getting huge... 19 lbs 12 ounces, 27 inches). Ben was able to go with us which was nice except we had some difficulty on the way to the appointment. I decided that it would be nice to get some coffee so we drove to the Dunkin Donuts- on the way, a car 2 in front of me decided to turn suddenly so the car in front of me stopped short- I, therefore, stopped short- Ben, however, in the car behind us did not stop so short... until he hit the back of my car. Everyone was buckled and is fine... I am so glad that it was Ben that hit us though and not someone else. That makes him 2 for 2 with my car! Maddie was pretty funny-- she said "Whaaat was that" and "the car moved Maddie's head".

After Owen's appointment Ben had to stay at work so the kids and I took our lunch to the playground and then we went on the merry-go-round. Now we just finished a yummy dinner of nachos at home since we're trying to eat everything in the house before Tuesday. We may head out for some ice cream for a celebratory dessert though.

A big congratulations to Ben (and Charlie) for finishing residency! Only 4 days left here in Virginia- next time we post we'll be official residents of New York!

Also we want to send lots of warm wishes to Doug and Kristi- wishing you a speedy recovery!
