These pictures they are sending me are almost too much to bear. This kid is so cute, I am quite sure that after I see him, I will want to keep him. You see, I am a closeted baby snatcher. When I visit friends with children, at some point toward the end of our visit, I turn to Kevin and say&#8230;&#8221;You distract the parents and I&#8217;ll make a run for the boarder.&#8221; Everyone always laughs when I say this. &#8220;Ha ha, isn&#8217;t auntie Chrissie funny?&#8221; they ask eachother. If they only knew how deep my devious streak ran they would clutch their child close to them instead of laughing.<\/p>\n<p>So to prepare myself for Baby D, I am going to go to the pet store and subject myself to cute puppies and furry kitties. I will hold their warm little bodies in my hands, and I will not squeal, I will not use the words &#8220;cute&#8221; or &#8220;adorable&#8221; or &#8220;please Kevin please please please can we get just one more.&#8221; No, instead I will look at them coldly and make remarks such as&#8230;&#8221;yes, I suppose this one is rather nice but it seems a bit furry for my taste.&#8221; I figure if I do this everyday until I leave my heart should be sufficently hardened to the point that I don&#8217;t grab Baby D and make a run for the boarder.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the craft room remodel, the computers have been disassembled. Last night we worked on bringing them up on line and (hopefully) this weekend we will do another Baby D picture update. Until then, I will leave you with a few of my favorites&#8230;..
