Lost Dog

The front door blew open today because of the wind and Raven has gotten out and she hasn't come back. We think maybe a neighbor picked her up, but so far no luck. We are posting signs in the neighborhood...but for right now, she's gone. Very sad.

naked

I haven't taken very many naked pictures, but here he is in all his glory...

A little rant

It seems these days on chatrooms on sites such as Baby Center and these calling cards I get from the neighbors here in Dallas, it is a trend for moms to call themselves, Tabitha, mommy of Madison or even, "wife to Gregory". I guess I'm getting on my high horse here (it's my blog!), but I think this is the 00's version of Mrs. Randolph Everson. I'm my own person...a mom, but also an individual. Would my husband have a calling card saying, "darling husband (DH in the web world) to Shelbitha"?

Maybe I need a calling card, although I'm not as put together as a calling card would suggest, and have it say, "Shelby Eidson, not only mommy to Stephen, but proud feminist, lawyer, and working mom" I finally need to stop reading those chat rooms.

Construction nearing completion

Our housing project is nearing completion. It looks awesome, as you can see. I'm really proud of us. Hopefully we can sell them in the current economy, but Sean can sell anything, which eases my mind a little.

More Pictures of Stephen

Here are more pictures of Stephen from the past week or so.

My Dancing Partner

I like to dance with Stephen to Itunes music sometimes. This is to a Lullaby by Billy Joel.

THANK YOU AMY!

Stephen wishes to thank Mommy's friend Amy who knitted him a sweater and a matching hat for him. Unfortunately, Stephen's head doesn't fit through the sweater (He takes after his Dad), but he thinks that Mommy and her Mother-in-law can install some snaps for him to wear the sweater.
