A definite answer

Which was no. No baby for us this month, no baby for us in 2011. When Ben and I were talking about it last night he said, "You know, this is my baby. It's probably not good to put arbitrary timelines on someone sharing half my genes." As nothing slows Ben down faster than me telling him to hurry up, he has a very good point.

So onwards and upwards to a 2012 little Nelson. In the mean time, it is Ben's spring break. Yesterday we took Eliza to a local little zoo. She had a good time even though it is so goddamn cold here for the end of March, and she's a little sick. (In fact, she's still asleep right now and it's 8:30.) And I started painting our upstairs hallway, which likely has not been painted in this century. It is going to be a challenge once I get to the high walls with the stairs, so I can see why this task had not previously been accomplished.
