Spaghetti



We had spaghetti for dinner recently, which is a rarity in our household. I don't know why; I just don't make it very often. While eating, it suddenly occurred to me to teach Linus how to slurp spaghetti. He thought it was hysterical and dinner quickly turned into a giggle fest by all of us.

I had a wonderful birthday yesterday. The sweetest moment was when Linus came into our bedroom saying, "Carrrd, carrrrd." I rolled over in bed and he handed me a card. When I pulled him up onto the bed, he grabbed the card and said, "Open." So sweet. Matthew had sent him in with the card, but even so, it was adorable and touching.

Geez, you look so skinny. Isn't there food in Denver? Somebody send her some Wisconsin cheese!

I agree...you look very skinny. (Perhaps I should move to Denver to shed some baby weight!) But we know they have spaghetti there...and Linus likes it. Tell him it's one of Aunt Star's favorite foods!! What fun to teach someone to slurp spaghetti!!

Ha! I've been losing weight for a while now. I attribute it to being off of Prednisone, not having much of an appetite (due to meds or being tired and in pain all of the time), going for walks with Linus, and playing with him all of the time.

Never fear, I haven't gotten down to a size 12 yet. Well, on top I have, but my hips aren't down that far yet.

I buy us Wisconsin cheese, except for the brie, which comes from Europe.
