Within about 3 hours of us finally coming home, Chris & I had the stomach virus. Worst. Christmas. Ever.<br /><br />Klaw is only 16 months, so I'm merely waiting for some of the other impracticalities to happen. ;-)Dana Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04126193301311318519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027534132693377698.post-54739276672440666482011-07-31T19:18:43.709-04:002011-07-31T19:18:43.709-04:00ohhh- i cant wait to check her out! her blog sound...ohhh- i cant wait to check her out! her blog sounds amazing! :)Rebecca Dot Comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00863643888576497347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027534132693377698.post-90596477852968336242011-07-31T12:03:00.977-04:002011-07-31T12:03:00.977-04:00Your impracticalities post was *funny*!!!
