I do have an excuse, though. My baby arrived on July 6, in a wild crazy Hollywood-style delivery. He (yes, it's a boy!) also brought quite a surprise with him. If you'd like to find out the details, the birth story is here: http://misadventuresandmiscellany.blogspot.com/2011/07/baby-is-born.html and the story of the surprise is here: http://misadventuresandmiscellany.blogspot.com/2011/07/our-super-special-boy.html
I promise to try to find time to blog HERE again soon!
