COLD FRONT!

BRRRRR!!!! This morning was 57 for us south Floridians that means its time to break out jackets, mittens and scarves. It is only getting up to 72 degrees today.

It's easier on mommy's back.

James and Obama

Our upstairs neighbors and friends James and Kristin volunteered for Obama campaign last night for their visit. This picture of James and Obama looks like is photoshopped but its not!

a full laundry basket

Finally the weather is starting to break. This morning we went to the beach to enjoy the "cool" 73 degree weather.

at the dinner table

Last night I felt bad that Raina was sitting on the floor watching us eat way up at the table. So what did I do, I put her (perhaps unwisely) on the table in her Bumbo. The photo's a bit blurry, but still very cute in my humble opinion.

Raina at 4 Months

Raina turned 4 months old on Friday, October 10th! Here are some recent photos and videos. She has recently become interested in things like her feet, sticking out her tongue, and the array of interesting toys she has. She now is making grasping moves at objects, including mommy's hair and earrings! I'm sure as soon as her binocular vision comes in, mommy might lose some earrings and daddy might lose some chest hair! Fun!

So long Mazda we barely knew ya

So we sold the Mazda 6 last night. We are for the first time ever a one car family.   The good news  is we don't drive a lot here on the beach and it will cut our car insurance bill from $145 a month to $75  so that will really help with our monthly bills. 

Unfortunately, will Raina's $480 a month day care and her $310 a month health care bills are bills are out of control.  So we will miss the car but hopefully things will actually be better for us in the long run!
