Red Eye

Red EyeOn a routine flight, Lisa (played by Rachel McAdams - HOLLA!) encounters a man who, by threatening to kill her father, forces her to assist in the assassination of a high-profile politician that is planning to stay at the fancy-shmancy hotel she manages.I like this movie. Most people that I talk about it to like this movie. It’s a great thriller. It cuts right to the chase. It doesn’t drag it out. I will admit that I really don’t like the bad guy though. Not in a “you’re not SUPPOSED to like the bad guy” sorta way but in a “no seriously, the bad guy gets on my nerves” sorta way. He’s funny lookin’ and he’s really creepy. AND he’s the same guy that was in 28 Days Later which I still haven’t let go of my grudge against for wasting the $3.99 I paid to rent it, not to mention the 113 minutes of my life that I SWEAR felt more like 113 HOURS that I would’ve rather spent getting a root canal. On the bright side, did I mention that Rachel McAdams is in it too? She’s hotness and EASILY makes up for stupid Cillian Murphy and then some. But that reminds me, what the deuce kind of name is “Cillian Murphy” anyway? More like Poopian Poop-phy if you ask me.

Anyway, good movie. Good movie.

It’s been a while.

Sorry it’s been so long since my last post but things have been a little crazy around here as I’m sure you can imagine. To say that Kayla’s been keeping us busy would be an understatement. She’s been making alot of progress though. She can hold her head up on her own now for a few seconds at a time. You can tell that she can focus on things now so she’s definitely seeing better. One of her new favorite games is to mimic your facial expressions. AND, she’s been sleeping better. Well, she was anyway. I say “was” though because she seems to have fallen of the bandwagon here the past couple nights but I’m hoping it’s just a phase. Oi…she already has “phases”…

We have a Kayla!

And here she is - all 5 pounds and 14 ounces of her wrapped up in the cutest little 18 1/2 inch long package. She’s got beautiful blonde hair and blue eyes, at least for now, and is absolutely gorgeous. She was born at exactly midnight - 12:00am Sunday January 8 (which means she shares her birthday with Elvis!)

Although she was born a little more than two weeks early, the doctors all say Kayla doesn’t show any signs of typical premies and is perfectly healthy. Mom’s still a bit uncomfortable but recovering nicely too. :)

Doo doo doo…

Just sittin’ here, chillin’, waiting for Kayla to make her big entrance. Yep…
