"It's like spending all day thinking about that girl you just fell in love with." — Obama was giving a speech about Baton Rouge, LA. In this "quote" he was referring to viewing the city's architecture, which was admittedly different than the real architecture of Baton Rouge, but not that different. The most striking difference was that all of the downtown government buildings were powder blue with white accents.

We've had a week and a half of work without further incident. I have heard that the head honchos are in on some progress but they can't share it with us yet. I'm willing to be patient. We received several candid and informative talks from our director and I expect that he'll address us again when he's got news he can share.
Our friends Lauren and Steve are in town for Memorial Day and our baby shower. Lauren is helping organize the shower with our friend Jennifer. We've had a great time so far going to the farmer's market and Louie's Cafe for lunch. The shower is tomorrow so we'll undoubtedly continue to have a good time :) Erica's mom will be arriving this evening to join in the festivities :)
We've been decorating the nursery. Today we found a cool metal lizard that was made in Haiti that we hung above the changing table. I'm sure Erica will post photos soon.
