Happy St. Patty's Day!

What a nice day to be celebrating the Irish--I have my window open, I can hear our neighbors lawn mower, birds singing and chirping, the sky is still a brilliant blue, and Emily Merrill just brought me a quart of Chocolate Malted Crunch ice cream. I had seriously just gotten out of the shower, heard the doorbell, went and peeped through the hole and saw it was her. I could see the ice cream in her hand. I opened the door, towel and all. I had gone two days ago to get some and they were all out! She is my hero today. Thanks, Emily!

Reagan is getting around these days. Not in a kinky way--she is really moving around. Matt and I have decided to make more room for her and clear some space for her on the floor. She is a joy to be around. I used to be so thankful when she went to sleep, so I could get stuff done. And when she woke up, I would be like darn! She needs to sleep longer. Now I look forward to hearing her in her crib, just so she can give me that big toothy grin and I can see more of her blossoming personality. She is at a fun stage. She is still enjoying food, especially refried beans and Miriam Pinoli's yummy rice, which we discovered last night. Her favorite spring color is orange and she loves to watch her dad. Stay tuned for more on her...I have many pics of her to download.

March Madness is not going so well for Matt or I. We both have different strategies. Matt listens to all the pros predictions, ESPN commentaries. Shoot, he even prints out articles picking apart the different teams and the shot they have at winning. I simply look at all the teams and pick based on things like: the color of their uniforms, whether I like the name of the school (Villanova is just a cool sounding name!), whether they have a cool mascot, whether they are a rival of BYU's or not. You know, the things that really don't matter. Usually it works, though. But this year is off to a slow start. Matt and I are both lagging in our brackets. There may not be a bet this year at all, since we may both end up in dead last. We'll see. Things change with each round!

Last but not least, the Office has a new episode on April 5th. How excited am I? You have no idea. It is called The Negotiation and is about Michael and Darryl heading to corporate to lobby for pay raises and things happen with the Roy, Pam, Jim situation. It is going to be big...

(I'm not going to say it....it is inappropriate. Oh well, I will say it anyways).

...that's what she said.
