the brother-in-law cometh

Michael's younger brother is coming to visit. He was originally scheduled to arrive today, but missed his flight and will be arriving tomorrow instead. It should be interesting to have him around for a week and a half.

I crashed pretty hard after my long, long farmer Jennie week. I fell asleep on the couch last night around 8pm, moved to the bed at 9pm, and woke up at 7am. I can't remember the last time I slept 11 hours!

We have finally chosen a name for the baby, "Amcharo". The word "amchara" came jumping out at me from a page in "the barn at the end of the world". "Amchara" is a Gaelic word for the beloved soul-comrade celebrated in ancient Celtic culture; the reflection of ones truest spirit. since it seemed feminine, we changed the "a" at the end to an "o". The "ch" is prounounced like a "k" so pronounced Am-KARO

Tonight we are going to have a silly, mellow night of eating a frozen pizza and popcorn and watching "March of the Penguins".
