brace yourselves people. this is the first time in over a month that i (kate) am not studying for the GRE while abigail naps. the more i talk to people, the more i realize how nerdy this is. nobody studies for the GRE this hard. if you did, tell me, so i feel less like a freak.this also reminds me how long it's been since i've posted anything on here, because i haven't even written anything about my decision to apply for grad school next fall (CSU's masters of journalism and technical communication). yep, finally decided to get my act together and do it. i cannot be a SAHM for my only job, although it certainly is a full time job. being in baby care boot camp 24 hours a day is brutal for my brain. i need to use it for something else- hence, all the studying. it is the most exciting part of my day, and that's how you know when you aren't using your mind enough. i am so excited!! if they don't let me in, i'll be knocking down doors.
let's see, we've been up to about a million things since the last post, so let's go list style:
1. mini vaca to denver. wildlife experience. window shopping. swimming. picnicking. eating at the cheescake factory (my personal highlight). red rocks. 
2. home improvements. third color of paint in the kitchen. new curtains, photos, etc.
3. habitat build. finished.
4. abigail. not crawling yet, but trying so darn hard. sitting by herself, unless she reaches for something and then tips over. sigh. mommy's looking forward to her gaining some more independence, i think. abs decided to like the jumperoo this week, and that's been blissful for adam and me.
5. working. adam is still in the office, and he's the only full time estimator now.
6. following the presidential race. i'm serious, this takes up an unbelievable amount of time. you have no idea.
7. volunteering. the usual, church, habitat, and i've also been helping the the Markey campaign a little bit. click here to see my sweet celebrity cameo. haha. adam couldn't even tell it was me.
clearly we've done more than this, but i'm at a loss for what. i swear i'll post again when i come up with more. check out our links too - i added our photo page.

I found you on the first try!
what color is the kitchen this time?
will you be "home" for christmas?
ps. i ask you real questions here because when we talk on the phone we can't seem to get past the election :)
You totally got my hopes up when you said CSU. I thought, California State University! Sweet! And then I clicked the link and saw Colorado. How sad for me.
