Facebook killed my blog

I knew it had been a while since I posted, but I didn't realize my last post was BEFORE THANKSGIVING! And, I have composed probably 30 posts in my head between then and now. But, thanks to Facebook, I've been able to put my mini-thoughts (and some pictures) into a public venue that 1) reaches many more people than my blog ever will, and 2) only takes about 30 seconds to accomplish. I fear this whole sitting down and spending time on something that isn't directly family or work related is no longer an option for me. So, I'm going to try to just post once a month and see how that goes.

And, since I am actually on a deadline for something else but decided to take a short break and eat lunch at my desk while perusing the web and then decided I had to finally post, I'm going to summarize what has been going on since the Mohawk of 2011 in mostly pictures.

There's been a lot of this:

And this:

 International Women's Air & Space Museum - in CLEVELAND!

At the dentist's office. He asked me to take this.

And a bit of this:

As much of this as we could get:

We're very proud of this:

All-school geography bee finalist! 

He did forget to wear his official t-shirt, but luckily that wasn't necessary.

And most recently, this happened*:

*Who said my baby could turn seven?? By the way, it was a weekend birthday extravaganza, consisting of taking cookies to school on Friday, going to The Melting Pot for dinner that evening, a birthday party at Young Chef's Academy where he and eight friends & relatives got to learn how to make frosting and decorate their own cakes, and then brunch on Sunday at Fire, Food and Drink (seriously - check out their weekend brunch menu - it is amazing). I don't think we can afford for him to turn eight.

So, that's two months in a picture-nutshell. Hope you feel satisfied. Or something. Whatever, I have to go check into what's happening on Facebook now.
