Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?



OK folks, just to keep everybody in the loop with what's going on here in sunny CA:

-Mommy & Daddy went into the hospital to have my baby brother yesterday
-They were sent to another hospital with a NICU where they stayed overnight.  They gave mommy shots and medicine through a booboo in her arm.
-Then they came home today--and baby brother is still in Mommy's tummy. What a tease!

The good news is, I'm doing great, and I had my first sleepover at my friend Virginia's house. What fun. Mommy is spending lots of time in bed (doctor's orders), taking it easy, and NANNA is coming out to play with me for a while.

So there it is: all is well at the CALI-Welches house. I'll keep everybody posted when my rascal little brother finally gets here.

The Chicos and Mr. Boos

I also almost forgot to mention the most fabulous trip we took last month.  We flew with Mr. Boos to Southern California to visit our good friends the Chicos.  The highlight of the trip was getting to meet my future husband, Sebi.  He is as handsome in person as he is in his pictures.  See blog link at right.  We only took our video camera, so you'll have to rely on the Booser's pics.




Miss Mariah, aka "that pretty lady," and Mr. Chico were gracious enough to host all of us THE DAY AFTER THEY MOVED INTO THEIR NEW HOUSE!  

Some interesting tidbits I learned on the trip:
Mr. Chico performs an excellent airplane ride.
Mr. Boos sleeps 'nekkid.'
Miss Mariah cooks a mean New Mexican Tamales casserole.
Sebi is a stud.
I like lemons straight off the tree.

Long Time Gone...

Well folks, after being accused of lazy blogging...I'm back! There's a lot to catch up on, starting with most recently my Daddy left for a ski-trip with the fam. Mommy and I stayed home because little brother is on the way, but looks like we missed a fun time:

All this pretty snow! Then came a change of plans....



Then Daddy came home all of a sudden because baby brother thought he'd try to escape Mommy's belly about 6 weeks early. I thought it would be fun to play with the little guy, so I egged him on, but mommy was of a different opinion. She and the docs coaxed him to stay in a little longer. Just the sort of drama I thrive on. I had a blast playing with friends while mommy hung out at the hospital and daddy fought a blizzard to get home.



I'm off to get his nursery ready...wish me luck!
