the office
season 5 of the office premiered last night and it did not disappoint.
brans and i were both laughing so hard through the whole thing!
we're super glad that its back... its been a rough summer tv-wise. we've only really been watching wheel of fortune and jeopardy, waiting for the fall tv lineup to debut.
and now it has! and we are thrilled. not that we watch a ton of tv, because we don't. we only watch a handful of shows. but one of our favorite things to do is snuggle up close and watch shows that we love.
and now, our tuesday and thursday nights will become completely predictable - home from work, dinner, tv.
love it.

jack larson curtis
here are some pictures of baby jack... (i stole these pictures from kendyll - since we were in such a hurry we forgot a camera! good thing the mom was prepared.)
kendyll looked great! what a cute mom and baby!
wesley is going to be such a great older brother.

baby jack
yesterday around 2:00pm, baby jack was born! kendyll and brad have another boy!
we went to visit last night, only hours after jack was born. both mom and baby looked wonderful! i was super impressed by kendyll - jack was born at 2, we showed up a little after 5, and she looked great and was happy and healthy.
jack is one of the cutest babies i have ever seen. he has kendyll's cute little nose, and his mouth and chin are exactly the same as his older brother, wesley.
when we first got there, wesley hadn't completely registered the fact that he had a new baby brother. but while we were all taking turns holding jack, wesley eventually took interest in him. he starting saying "baby jack! baby jack!" so kendyll asked him if he wanted to hold baby jack. wesley nodded and climbed up by kendyll. we placed baby jack in kendyll's arms and wesley was completely intruiged. he hugged him and kissed him. he pointed out all of his facial features - pointing to and saying, "nose," "eyes,"and "head."
.
unfortunately, we rushed over there straight from work, so we forgot our camera. but brad was documenting just about everything, so hopefully we'll get copies emailed to us soon.

responsibility
sometimes i just wish that i didn't have to get up and go to work in the morning. not that i dislike my job, because its quite the opposite - i happen to love my job.
this morning, branson and i woke up with plenty of time to get ready and get going to work, but we were both just super comfortable - so much so that neither of us wanted to move. so we didn't for another 30 minutes... with every 5 minutes or so that passed "we really should get up..." was muttered.
we contemplated the idea of being totally irresponsible and not going to work and just snuggling all day... but responsiblilty got the better of both of us and we slowly but surely got up and hurriedly got ready for work.
nothing sounds better to me right now than lying in bed, snuggling with brans and watching movies all day. wouldn't that be the life?!

technology
we got a new computer! about a month ago we finally had cable installed in our house, only to find that branson's computer wouldn't work. so after budgeting our finances a little and carefully thinking it over, we decided the best investment was to buy a laptop. and its lovely. and we got a fairly good deal on it, we think. so that makes it even better.it somehow has placed in my head the words to napoleon dynamite's brother kip's song...
yes, i love technology... always and forever.
