I just passed another milestone... Rachel (my GT friend, for whom I was a bridesmaid) just had her baby last night! We're going to pretend this is Taylor. It's from the nursery pictures at her hospital (who knows how old the pic is), and I know she did a classic Pooh theme. Close enough for now.

I hate that I'm moving away so soon; she has repeatedly assured us that we have babysitting privileges, and that I could easily assume honorary-Aunt status with little Taylor. I guess I'll just have to be his crazy honorary aunt in Iowa.

This Iowa City police blotter is reassuring. If I can just dodge the drunk drivers, I'm good. Well, so long as I can also dodge the scary tornadoes.
