Good News on Good Friday

Is that title terribly irreverent?

Here, be distracted by our new chariot on its maiden voyage ...


We purchased this from a family that had a set of triplets, twins, and a singleton. I know!

Anyway, I heart Craigslist forever and ever. (I don't heart Julia's outfit that she curated all by herself - it seemed to really bring out the needy in her - a side I've neeeeever seen before).


Sprinting right along to the great news ... I went in for my scan this morning. Laying on a padded 2x4 for 45 minutes while being told every two minutes how many minutes remained of the ginorm camera being suspended 1/123812308109283th of a cm above my face was actually really relaxing and I enjoyed the quiet. The radiologist read the scan right then and there and it was totally clean! I chugged a big hospital coffee that Simon brought me in celebration. Oops.

Thank you thank you thank you for all of your sweet emails that you sent this week and especially this morning. I don't know how all of you nice people find the Camp -- I'm a lucky blogger. Don't turn on me, ever - pretty please.


Also noteworthy ...

Sebastian, inspired by Parker, is almost sort of talking!

and

Theo is starting to be happy and awake for longer periods of time - a milestone to love.


Rock Chalk!!

And! get your Easter outfits picture ready because there's going to be a link-up ... more on that a little tiny bit later.

    YAY!! I'm so relieved. You'll have to let me know what your first iodine-filled meal is. Also... be careful. My baby's conception may or may not coincide exactly with the end of my low-iodine diet. That was probably an overshare.

    I think it was the iodine.

    That stroller is amazing. I didn't know such things existed!

    And I reiterate my earlier clean-scan sentiments: YAY!!!!

    Lastly, pretty sure the pants Basher is wearing in that video are the same ones Wes has been wearing to bed at night. Precious little inmates.

    You rock that stroller. Furthermore, glad to hear the news. I remember when my mom was going through that shortly after the birth of my younger brother.

    Great news! And that triple stroller is awesome- hooray for being able to corral 3 kids! Also, your cardi + chambray is so cute. You should submit it to Ain't No Mom Jeans for the latest series.

    only you would make a floral cardi with a huuuuge stroller (didn't even know those existed??) look awesome. Thanks for linking up, mama! Cheers.

    So glad about your good news!

    You and my daughter-in-law would get along great. She has identical twin girls, 22 months, and a one-month-old daughter as well. She buys almost everything on Craigslist or at consignment shops. I can't believe the great stuff she finds for a fraction of the cost. She has two double strollers that she got (on Craigslist) for the twins...but I think she could use a three-seater like yours!

    I can't remember if I commented on this or not, and apparently, I am too lazy to look. But, I am so happy to hear the good news! Good Friday, indeed.
