Grins, Guests, and Getaways

Long time, no blog. I blame Avery. Just like any suspect smell that may happen across someone's nose; I blame Avery. And with her new coffee addiction, she'll agree to any and all accusations if we just keep the juice flowing.
So it really has been a bit since we last logged an entry. What has transpired in the meantime? A weekend away, Valentine's Day, visitors from all over the country, and two parents blindness to any world happenings caused by a baby smiling at them. So number one: Weekend Getaway. Amy and I took advantage of Nonnie (Grandma Schnettler) staying with us to take a weekend away in the Shenendoah Valley with our friends Matt and Audrey. It was a ton of fun, and even more so that it was a surprise for Amy, since Matt and I had been scheming since December to plan it. I recommend checking out their blog for a more complete weekend report. (http://dimarcofamily.blogspot.com/2008/02/our-valentines-weekend.html)
Shortly thereafter, Valentine's Day! V-D is a great high-profile holiday in the Harms household, this year did not let us down. One of these years I'll get it right.
Today our other Grandma (Kathy) returned to Montana after a week visiting. We had a great time playing, visiting, and making general merriment. As a special treat for the visit, Avery has chosen to pull out all her greatest tricks: smiling, thrashing about, crying, sleeping, and making processed milk distillates. OK, that's what she always does. Oh well.
Ninja Baby.
