Last Wednesday, as I wrapped up the week at work, I looked forward to the four day holiday weekend as an opportunity to catch up on my writing. That didn't happen. While I'm not "caught up", I'm certainly not coming out of the weekend empty handed.
I finally concluded three weeks of painstaking festive illumination installation. There are over 4,000 lights on the exterior of the house alone and, once we get the real tree decorated this week, probably another 1,000 lights inside the house. Of course, there's also the flood lights, the inflatables (we're up to three this year) the projector, and Santa's landing strip. We were going to install a helipad, but I was trying to keep it low key this year.
With the task of holiday decorating behind me, I was able to get a little writing done. I think you'll find there's something for everyone. Here's how it breaks down:
- A new video from the desk of the Fuzzy Headed Oracle celebrates a major milestone in her life.
See it here. - If you are pregnant, plan to be, or have recently given birth, you'll definitely want to read my step-by-step guide on "How To Bathe A Child". Helpful pictures and illustrations are included (no extra charge). I'm interested in your feedback on this one. Please utilize the "comments" feature of the blog to let me know if I've missed anything.

In addition to her "major milestone", we are expecting her seventh tooth to cut through any day now. You'll note the addition of a poll on the topic on the right side of the Speed Bump Chronicles. In light of the poor economy, this one won't cost you a thing.
