Ta Da!!

I'm well aware that this is exciting for exactly two of us who actually are reading this (assuming that Court ever reads this), but Charlotte's got skills. She has been walking for a month now but until today she needed to hold onto something to help her stand up. A chair, my leg, whatever. But as of today, she can stand up from a sitting position without any props! It starts out a little like downward facing dog, and then... ta da! Oh she's stinkin' cute. We went to lunch with Susan and Lucy today and it was so cute to see Charlotte and Lucy grinning at each other. It will be great fun when Lucy is a little bigger and they can actually play together!

Hey Keri. Keri, are you there?? Steve McGrew.

So, do you ever find yourself using terms that you didn't even know existed in your vocabulary? I actually used the term "spic n' span". I didn't even know that was in my brain anywhere.

I had a strange house-hunting experience today with a lady named Carol, and it's a really long story, but let's just say that she is all of these things: sexist (as in sexist against women), inarticulate, disrespectful of my time, thinks I'm some sort of incompetent adolescent, unprofessional, forgetful, and tardy. I am doubtful of her ability to successfully rent out her properties.

I had a great night at work tonight firstly because my client was awesome, and secondly because I saw an old client named Matt who I was happy to run into! He's just neurotic enough to be endearing and not annoying. I am trying to find a way to call him and say "don't have Jenna cut your hair, have me cut your hair and here's my number" without coming off as some sort of creepy stalker. Any suggestions?

If you have made it this far, congratulations. I had to blog tonight because I've been talking nonstop since I got done with work at 8:00 and Courtland has that glazed over expression that I'm ALL TOO FAMILIAR WITH.

Speaking of expressions, what's up with this one? His hair looks a little like it's floating, like maybe he's airborne. We were laughing our heads off when I took this because it reminds us of a picture from Court's wild single days where he is jumping on a bed (I never stopped to wonder whose bed or why, hmmm) and is caught mid-air by the camera. He looks like he's being abducted by aliens.
