Today my son, Sean Ben, turned 3! You know the first thing we did was measure him! Even before he woke this morning we measured him; he's 39 inches. It's official we are height obsessed. I never thought we were but clearly wrestling him out of a dead sleep to get the number just right proves it. Makes you wonder right, and NO I'm not 5 feet tall. Actually, I'm above average height at almost 6 feet and husband is just over 6 feet. My dad and most of my family is tall and husband's family is fairly tall too, so I'm not sure how this obsession came about. Sean Ben was 21 inches long when he was born, I can't remember the time or the weight and on some days the exact date escapes me but, I always remember 21 inches, yep, it's offical I'm height obsessed.
I love you son, Happy Birthday!

Small steps
OK, so I vowed to post more often. I'm recommitting. It's funny I can have great self-discipline, sometimes. These times are few and far between, but when I'm on, I'm on.
So here we go yet again, this time I'm only going to commit to updating once a week. Small steps. I read quite a few blogs and I've found so many smart, cool women that have interesting, funny and thoughtful things in their lives to share and they do it well. I hope to join their ranks one day. Small steps.
I have a lot to say about the whole Duke Lacrosse thing, but it is hard to be smart and thoughtful at midnight on a workday with a two year old staring at you begging for more Easter candy. Small steps...Maybe I'll find the time to be smart and thoughtful later in the week.
