Today we (meaning just the two of us) are headed out again to search for houses. I've never traveled alone with Indy before (I mean, I know it's just the MetroNorth, but still: with a 3 1/2-month-old, this counts as travel)...and I have to say: a little nervous. I have so many diapers with me. So many socks.
Luck, please!
Also, come hang out with me on Twitter - I'll Tweet some pix!

Yesterday, thanks to a little creature whose very favorite thing is practicing his yowling skills at 2AM, I was so tired that when I got up to use the bathroom in the middle of a meeting, I stood in front of an open sliding door and pawed at the lock like a monkey, trying to figure out how to open...the open sliding door. Someone had to help me. For seriously. Miraculously, the people with whom I was meeting did not immediately have me escorted from the building with a pat on the back and a thankyouverymuchdon'tcalluswe'llcallyou.
(Speaking of this meeting, I have some fantastic news coming up shortly. I am SO FREAKING EXCITED. I'll tell you soon.)
Anyway, today I feel slightly less tired. I think I'll be able to manage opening doors without assistance, at the very least.

So yesterday we put an offer in on a house we loved (the one I took these photos outside of), and this morning I found out that we didn't get it.
For this installment of blog advice, we're doing a two-for-one.
I'm sorry, maybe you didn't hear me.
