Hey! You know what I hadn't thought of? Using the 3-4am time slot to write posts. Thanks to Dylan to making sure I didn't sleep through this opportunity.

Dylan took her cue from the terms 'charming' and 'easygoing' and ran in the other direction as fast as she could. She declined to let me make dinner, even when offered the job of MICKING the EGG. Then she declined to eat dinner, let me remove her bathing suit, or let more than two minutes pass without emitting some kind of painful whine. I myself have spent the last two days whining, so I guess I can't complain too much.

Did you see the article on food in the Finger Lakes? Anything that describes the Finger Lakes as the juicy center has got to be worth reading. She went to a bunch of our favorite places, so we must be on the right track in the stuffing our faces department.

Dylan apparently hadn't realized that Uncle Josh and Uncle Ducky were two different people, not just one big fun unclejoshyduck. So that led to some initial skepticism and confusion when she saw them both in the same place this week. I think we've got things mostly worked out, but this is a kid who still mentions the plane that daddy works on most days.

One interesting side effect of the driveway has been that we realized we actually had a front door. Visitors to our house may have noticed the somewhat annoying backup at the side door as we make everyone remove their shoes due to our longstanding cultural tradition of not wanting to clean very often. There is a lot more space at the front door, so I think this is going to allow for some innovative developments in entering the home such as: not tripping over a big pile of shoes and not being outsmarted by the foot pedal baby gate.

Dylan has been up from midnight to 4am two of the past three nights. Please send help.
