Happy Thanksgiving!

What a great Thanksgiving, and we have so much to be thankful for, not the least of which is our little Isabella Chenchen. She is doing so great, and fitting in so well. She isn't, however, excited about Mama working on the computer if she's awake ... thus the lack of updates. That and the fact that Ikea opened in our neighborhood and we basically personally committed to keeping them in business so that we can: a) get a new desk for the library, b) completely redo the playroom with toy holders, wall to wall bookcases, a standing unit to separate the room from the bathroom (we converted the master bedroom to a playroom), a table, and a media shelf/cabinet.

Whew!

With all that, plus playing with two kids (including one under-the-weather five-year-old) and doing revisions on a book, I guess the lack of blog-update time is understandable.

But the updates are coming! The last of the China stuff and new and exciting tidbits!

I'm just not sure when ...
