Apologies to anyone who has had the misfortune to ring our phone between the hours of 3pm and 7pm for the past three weeks. That’s our witching hour and I have no business answering anyway.

What have I been up to? Here are a few things:

• Transitioning two little guys into daycare and preschool. Associated hanging out at school, leaving and returning quickly, pumping, and dealing with two little guys who didn’t nap nearly enough.
• Reading the latest Harry Potter. With all the waiting in the cafe across from the preschool and nervously sitting by the phone at home, I busted out a 700+ page book in one week.
• Editing the Rookie Moms Handbook with Whitney. Yep, it just happened to be all in this same couple weeks that we got a hard copy proof to review with lots of major and minor tweaks waiting to be discovered. I think it’s coming along nicely and we can hardly wait to see it for reals.
• Biking hard with Olivia. Yesterday, we did 35-mile Tour d’Organics while Alec drove Holden and Milo from organic farm to organic farm to play and wait for us to pedal our sorry butts up and down the rolling hills. It was his first time taking them both on an outing and it was a biggie.
• Starting a new job. Today was my first day at a Berkeley Internet start-up. I’d like to say more but I’m so darn superstitious after my last couple forays into working that I’d like to see how this plays out a little before sharing more. Suffice it to say that I’m trying to be professional during the hours between screaming tearful drop-offs.
