Oh, right, HI BLOG READERS!

I haven't forgotten about you! Let's just say I've been taking a break. No, I'm not crazy-busy, although work is work, and motherhood is motherhood, to be sure...I just feel like our household has been on autopilot lately, so there hasn't been much exciting stuff to blog about. I mean, other than:

1. The fact that Boba is as cute and entertaining as ever, growing into a very bright and special little girl who alternately drives us crazy and makes us fall in love with her exponentially; and


2. That this pregnancy has been rather lovely in that I haven't experienced all the crazy symptoms I had when I was pregnant with Boba...but I'm only 6 months a long, and 3 months provides PLENTY of opportunity for something to come and kick my butt.

The fun thing about Mini-Heil #2 is that Boba has named him, and it has seemed to stick. No, we're not going to formally give our son this name, but somehow it has felt very natural to refer to the basketball-that-is-my-tummy as this.

"Fox."

Somehow Boba has decided that her baby brother should be called the sly character in her books and cartoons who attempts (sometimes not-so successfully) to outwit the otherwise "good" characters in their respective stories. Does this say something about how she perceives her sibling? Perhaps.

Hmmm. Well, I guess all that remains to be seen, doesn't it??

In any case, we are doing quite well and healthy over here in sunny SD, and I hope you haven't forgotten about us completely, despite my lack of diligence in this here blog. I certainly haven't forgotten you, even though it may feel that way!

So, from Boba, Jason, me, and "Fox," have a fabulous Spring, and here's to more good days!
