Newfoundland is



getting back on the wagon.

We've let ourselves go for too long. We use the weather, our baby, and our limited time together as excuses to spend the entire evening eating pizza, scarfing down ice cream, and watching television.

But we are no longer going to encourage that behavior in each other because we love each other and our baby too much to continue to live this way. We're back on the wagon for now. 

In our almost ten years together, I'd say this is our sixth "come to Jesus, we need to get healthy" moment. Hopefully this time the exercise habit will stick, and the poundage we've gained over the past two years won't.

Newfoundland is

missing Nana.

Poor girlie.

My mom came to visit for nine days. We dropped her off at the airport, and had a somewhat harrowing ride back in the snow (windshield wipers inexplicably stopped working, making me have to navigate the icy roads through one tiny unmuddied spot on the glass, all while a baby screamed to get out of her car seat).

Once home, after a quick cuddle, she immediately went looking for Nana by the guest room where Nana slept.

:(
