1. Bell's baptism went well. After giving us a hard time for being an inter-faith couple, the parish finally allowed us to have Bell baptized catholic. The event was low key and simple, with a small reception provided by the church afterwards. 2. Bell's baptism day also spurred a mini batch 96 reunion. 3. Yels and Brian's visit to Victoria was fun. I wish it could've been longer or I wish they just lived really close by for that matter. But the best part of their coming to visit is seeing Raine and Blaise play together. It made me happy to see Raine that happy to have a playmate who's the same age as he is. 4. Yels and Brian also brought the best presents ever! Jollibee Chicken Joy , Goldilocks Mamon and Ensaymada , AND a year's supply of Joy ! (yes, I have very specific dishwashing standards) 5. Hi my name is Joanna and I'm addicted to Blokus online. I started playing this when Scarbulous disappeared from Facebook after that whole legal drama they had with...

1. Raine finally said mommy! All it took was for him to imitate this lost kid in the supermarket who was screaming 'mommy' at the top of his lungs. We've been teaching Raine to say mommy for months! But sure, listen to the lost kid... 2. Raine's other word of the week is 'mambo!' (with matching dance moves) 3. I'm so happy the Steelers won... even though it was only me and Bell (and a large pizza) having our own private Superbowl party, as the men of the house had other plans. 4. I think I just learned how to tread. Well ok, there's definitely still lots of room for improvement because I'm still definitely not as relaxed as I'm supposed to be, but I'm proud to say that I finally get the concept. Instead of saying 'It's like riding a bicycle' (which I don't know how to do), they should've just said it's like working out on the stair master. I would've understood that! 5. Raine calls every team sport 'basketball!...
