Good to know some things never change!

I know it doesn’t look like it, but she really did start it. I am an innocent younger sibling. :)

We are back from our trip to Syd-cinnati. What a cute baby girl! I posted more pictures (scroll half way down, when the images change to non-numbered ones, you are on the 2nd half–I think it starts with Michael snoozing on the couch with Sydney).

It is always great to see my sister, but this was definitely one of those weekends where you see time marching on before your eyes. I am 35, she is 37. I am a step mother of 2, she has a newborn. The miracle of all of this is that my parents have not seemed to have aged. They are still mom and dad!

OK, enough deep thoughts for today. Off to read before bed–back to work tomorrow. BTW–I gave in a started the Twilight series. AWESOME. I was worried I would be scared, but I am not. Also, Elli–I also took your book, Atonement. Will you add that to my Scarpelli library card check out list? :)

4th of July With Sydney Olivia!

Saturday, July 4th, 2009

Happy Independence Day!!  Paul and I are in Cincinnati with Elli and Michael and their latest addition–Sydney Olivia! Here are some photos.

Paul drove us out on Thursday, we arrived about 4:30pm. We have been chilling and hanging out, trying to help Elli and Michael where we can. My mom and dad are coming today for the 4th–they should arrive anytime.

Paul and I ran yesterday and this morning. It was brutal. I did some crunches yesterday and made Paul do some w me this morning. He did not like that. He said, “Why do I have to have a fitness nazi for a wife? Why can’t my wife be lazy like everyone else’s?” Cracked me up. Elli was up by the time we were finished and I told her what Paul said. She laughed too and said, “Yeah–you married the wrong sister for THAT!!”
