Rick & I had a fun date night last night while Mallory had a fun night at Auntie Em’s. My old friend Hitch is the coach of the Columbus Blue Jackets and got us tickets to the game.
We had a quick dinner in Greektown and sort of took our time getting to the Joe – I was looking forward to seeing Coach after the game and the time in between was just fluff. Plus I figured Coach wouldn’t know if we got there late anyway. I didn’t even bring my camera because usually the seats are up in the …

Giddy Up
Mallory (actually she was still Baby Fred at the time) got this cool rocking horse from Rick’s Aunt Sharon & Uncle Gary at one of our baby showers. They made it for her and it has a blue & yellow “M” on the side – not quite a block M, but what do you expect from those Buckeyes? And I am not convinced that there isn’t a hidden scarlet & grey O on it somewhere…
Anyway, Mallory has sat on it a few times and let me rock her but today she figured out how to make it go on her …
Weekend Update
I think this is a record for length of time between posts, at least lately. I think I had been pretty good about getting something up at least every other day but life has been hectic lately I guess.
In the midst of the hectic-ness, I got myself a fancy massage. I really wanted to get one at the fancy spa at our hotel in Guam but my WWRS (What Would Rick Say) bracelet kept me from dropping the $$ on it. So I waited til we got home so I could use my gift certificates to the Aveda Salon here …
Catching Up
posted at 6p Thursday January 24, Guam time
As I was reviewing pictures, I realized I missed posting some stuff. Plus, I want a daily list of the stuff we’ve done so here goes (I’ll be able to post as long as Rick keeps Mallory occupied and vice versa).
We went to Two Lovers Point earlier this week (http://www.twoloverspoint.com/). We paid our $3 to get a view of Tumon Bay; there was a souvenir shop and all these buildings. The funniest thing is that in the travel book I have from back when my folks were here way back when shows a …
happy birthday to me!
wow. 37. when i was younger 37 seemed so old. now that i’m here it just sounds old – i don’t feel so old. well sometimes i do when i am a little slow getting up off the floor after playing with mallory.
my birthday weekend has been good so far: a mid-day pedicure & lunch date with some good friends yesterday (even mallory got her toes painted to match mine!), dinner with my family at my mom’s yesterday evening, a big ultimate margarita at Friday’s with rick & mallory on our way home from my mom’s. this morning mallory enjoyed …
day 4, bachelorettehood
we are on night 4 of bachelorettehood. things are going well so far, it’s pretty easy since mallory is on a decent schedule. friday night my dad came out for dinner; saturday we took coops for a long walk in the woods with his friends CJ & fenway, and then mallory headed out for her first sleepover (i had a late hockey game saturday night and early hockey practice sunday morning, so rather than disturbing my sister’s household late-late saturday and early sunday, we decided i would just leave mallory there all night).
i got to emily’s with enough time to …
the bachelorettes
mallory & i are bachelorettes for the next 10 days. well, bachelorettes with a dog. rick left us to go on spring break with the softball team so the chicks and the dog are on our own. mallory is starting off the weekend with a big nap on the couch, and i should be taking advantage of the hands free time by doing some cleaning. so here i go, more later :-)
a bunch of sickos
We are all sick. Mallory, rick, me ~ even cooper. The humans have colds and the canine has a bladder infection (which we are hoping will explain his recent peeing in the house).
Mals is now 3 months old. She has developed into a fabulous night sleeper and a not-so-great daytime sleeper. She still loves her baths. She is very tolerant of all of the escapades rick & i drag her along on, like leaving the house at 6p on sunday to hit a couple of super bowl parties. She just rolls with it which is outstanding. She is also agreeable …
