The family. We are a little band of characters trudging through life, sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that binds us all together.

For the Record
I think it goes without saying that my mission to lose 10 pounds is out the window. I did manage to lose 4.5, which put me at a decent starting point for this pregnancy, so I don't feel too badly about it. I would like to think that I will stay under the 20# mark with this pregnancy, but considering that I am absolutely ravenous no more than two hours after my last meal and that I can't stop thinking about cherry and key-lime pie (I hate you, televised Pillsbury Bake-Off), I should probably be realistic. At this point, who cares. It comes off. I think it's time I shake the paranoia that it won't.
