The One with the Baby

Laurana is here! After a tumultuous few weeks, I am back to blogging. There is so much to tell, that I will just sum up.

Botched amnio, baby arrived early, one week in the NICU, Baby got better, still not gaining enough weight but much happier and livelier, transitioning to life as a dad, and still need a teaching job for fall.

I'm learning to cook breakfast and it seems to be working out. Ellice hasn't complained too much, even though I've wasted a pancake or two.

My birthday was yesterday, a few friends came over, Mama Chick fixed Spaghetti (My favorite) and Mama Gullett brough some nice gifts. I can't wait to get over to 1/2 price books!

Haven't finished any books lately; kind of had more pressing matters on my hands. Did catch a few rentals though:

Bride Wars

Unnhh...it was okay. Standard fare, very predictable and passably produced. I was kind of bored. Girls seemed to like it. *1/2

Confessions of a Shopaholic

I couldn't get through this one. Very bored. Didn't like the characters. *

Dragons of Autumn Twilight (Cartoon Movie)

This adaptation of one of my favorite novels was heartbreaking. Voice acting is fairly good, and they were very faithful to the story but the animation is so horrible as to make this almost unwatchable. Extra 1/2 star for just being dragonlance. *1/2
