Finale

Last night was Lost’s Season finale. This whole season has been a disappointment. I was not feeling the time travel thing at all. I can’t believe I am writing this – last year at this time I was reeling from the best television finale ever – Lost Season 4. But, I thought last night’s episode was pretty good. It was definitely gratifying to see that Jacob does in fact exist, and what the foot statue looked like at one time. For those of you who don’t watch Lost, I will move on….

Brayden and Curran continue to be the two most entertaining people alive. It kills me how particular they can be about things, especially Brayden. Here are some examples:

1. Brayden hates spider webs - HATES THEM. If he sees one on the playground, we have to leave immediately. I attempt to knock them all down upon our arrival, but sometimes I miss one and the wheels fall of bus.
   
2. Brayden needs his ears cleaned every night. He loves having them cleaned. Very odd.
   
3. Brayden's new thing is that when he asks a question he ends it with - Yes or No Mom? I feel like I am being interoggated by the Po Po.
   
4. Curran refuses to let you feed her. She must feed herself, preferably with adult utensils.
5. Curran loves shoes. Set her is a shoe pile and she will entertain herself for hours - score! Her current fave pair are a pair of Cousin Stumpy's winter boots that are about 4 sizes to big.

It seems like Braydo has a lot more anal-retentiveness going on than Curran. I don't know if that's him or if its just because he's older.

The house at Catawba continues to come together. I am so pissed though, we bought bunk beds off of Craigslist and we lost the damn hardware. Hopefully our marriage can survive Steve and I attempting to put the beds together without the original hardware.

This weekend is probably our last weekend where we won't have anything going on. Next weekend (Memorial Day) will be a big one. The kids will be staying back in Cleveland and we are heading over to Put-in-Bay with a bunch of friends, some of which have never been to PIB before. Should be ugly. Stay tuned for photos.

Did you see that Peter King ranked the Browns last in his power rankings for 2009? Great! Being a Browns fan is really a sick, sick codependent relationship. The Indians are also terrible, with the worst record in the league. I guess theoretically its too soon to call the season a flop, but I am going to go ahead and do so. Summer is a little less fun when the tribe sucks.

Here are some older pics of the kids, because I was a dead beat parent and didn't take any this past week.

Curran is about 4 months here - before she became a maniac

Brayden is about as old as Curran is now in this picture. My little dude.
