part of the process

With mortgage broker's license in hand, I went and met with the brokers that I'll be working with. Somehow, one of my regular guests has five properties that he wants me to refinance, now. I feel like the dog that finally caught the car — what the hell do I do now? Luckily, the guys I work for, let's call them "M&M" for this blog's sake, are going to walk me through the first few loans I do until I get comfortable with the entire process.

While transitioning Kai to solid food was painless, he has begun to transition himself away from utensils, and prefers to be fed by hand. You can offer him something on a spoon, and he won't take it, but if you offer the same food a second later from your fingers he'll go for it. Not always, but it does make mealtime interesting.

No walking yet, although he saying "mom" and "mama" now, although we think he's just making the sound, not necessarily attaching any meaning to it. Add that to "dad", "dada", "Isaac", "spoon" and "poop." Yes, poop. It's all part of the process.
