Month in Review: November 2007

Welcome to Month in Review: November 2007, documenting events for our family history. You know the drill--most of this was already talked about on the blog, but some of it is new.

• Chris and I took a three day trip to Vegas, where we attended the Blogworld Expo. This is where they gave away the $10,000 blogging scholarship for which our Wife Advice blog was (*sigh*) only a finalist. We're having a fun time with our silly little blog. Except for when we argue about whose turn it is to write, what to write, how to write it, etc. The Clarks? Arguing? Imagine.
  
• Tommy is enjoying his membership in weekly Chess club. He now knows how all the pieces move, which is more than I can say for myself. The highlight of his month was his friend's Bouncy Birthday Party.
  
• We took a mini-luxurious-vacation with kids in tow.
  
• We felt very grateful as we celebrated a wonderful Thanksgiving at Phil & Karine's house.
  
• Michael now mysteriously transforms into Super-Michael on a daily basis. I'm just dreading the day he attempts to "fly" off the top bunk.
• I finally got a cell phone--I opted for the Treo, which means it's a combination cell phone/PDA. I think I need to call customer service, because it looks like they forgot to send the magic wand which was supposed to make my whole life fall into perfect order the day I started using the new device.
• Once again, David's body feels the need to get all the pain out of the way at once; he's gotten 3 or 4 new teeth in the last week, which we have "enjoyed" almost as much as he has. He loves giving hugs (leaning his head on someone's chest) and blowing kisses (making a loud "MAA" sound).

Until I sat to review my blog and calendar to write this, I hadn't realized what a slow news month it was here; I guess it just felt busy since we've been updating our blogs daily for NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month). Phew--now I can go back to staying up too late every night simply surfing the internet and watching tv.
