Jon and Amber

I made Greek yogurt! And it worked! I wrote a LONG thing about it and don’t want to waste too much space, so click below to Read More about my little culinary adventure:

I did a batch upload of 9 videos to YouTube last night! These were all taken between late January and last week, so they are all fairly recent. I’m not going to bother embedding them all here right now. Click the link below to go to my YouTube profile and the 9 videos are all right there. Enjoy!

Jeremy turned 11 months old last week (on St. Patrick’s Day!) We took a few minutes of video that day – nothing special, just the three of us hanging out at home. But I thought it’d be nice to post this for friends and relatives who don’t get to see us very often. Can you believe how big Jeremy is getting?! We are so proud.

We hosted a poker party on Saturday afternoon/evening and it was a blast! Jon had 10 guys at 2 poker tables in 1 big tournament downstairs, and Jeremy and I spent most of the time upstairs hanging out with Kate and Niamh – a mom and baby we met through our daycare. (Niamh and Jeremy were born just 10 days apart and they make great playmates, which is a lot of fun for us moms, too!)

Here’s Jeremy giving Niamh a hug and a “kiss,” or maybe a little bite:

We weren’t downstairs much, but we heard lots of loud laughing and shouting from the guys, so I guess they all had a fun time too. We ordered a bunch of pizza for supper, and the party was done by 9 pm (since it started at 2 in the afternoon), so we didn’t even have to stay up super late and feel tired the next morning! Win!

Jon is thinking about doing this kind of game once every month or two, depending on interest. At least a few guys said they’d definitely like to do this again, so this might become a regular occurrence! (And a super incentive for us to keep the house clean – HAH!)
