It's been pointed out to me that I've completely omitted any information and/or pictures regarding the two other members of the Bacon household, Dinky and Sneakers (who have taken the Bacon last name, and kept Wheeler as their middle name). They are both doing well, though Dinky is experiencing her usual spring allergies as well as a possible new skin condition. This may require a trip to the vet. Right now, they're doing a lot of sleeping in spots of sunshine on the floor. They both love Hawkins. Dinky is pretty attentive to him and gets upset when he cries. She usually comes rushing in and circles me meowing with accusations as if I'm the one making him cry. Sneakers misses being in our laps constantly and will sometimes sit beside us when we're holding Hawkins and just look longingly into our eyes. He seems to be saying, "Why him? Why not me? I'm soft and squishy, too. Just a little hairy." We are trying to make sure they still get lots of attention. Scott messes with Sneakers all the time and instead of taking it out on Scott, Sneakers runs away and attacks Dinky. She's really too fragile for that. Any time they meow, Scott makes me clean the litter box. It can be annoying, but I guess the less cat excrement you have in your basement, the better. So, that's the update.
Didn't I tell you our lives were exciting? Grammy comes today.

This is a darling blog! (However, I have had a hard time logging in, but I have a hard time as well on Rob's blog.) I love the pictures of you, the baby and the cats. Isn't it nice that Hawkins has such a wonderfully creative mom and dad? I think that one of the best things about Scott is his last name. You have certainly gotten a lot of mileage out of all the ways that you can use Bacon. (By the way, is he any relation to Sir Francis or Kevin?) I'm really happy that you are so excited about Grammy's arrival. It is so wonderful to get along so well with family. This is what makes our lives so much richer.

Katie,
Yes, my last name is Bacon. I thought I'd heard every possible axiom connected with the word Bacon, but you broke the shit down with BLT! When I was pregnant, you don't know how many times I heard, "You should name him Chris P. Bacon! Harharhar..." It was HILARIOUS, let me tell you.
ps- I WILL call you soon. I've got company in town and Molly's bridal shower through this weekend, though.
Aunt Mary,
I'm so lucky to have inlaws like Scott's parents. They're great.
Scott claims to be related to Frances Bacon, but I'm not so sure I buy it. Maybe Hawkins will turn out to be a genius philosopher or painter. (there are two frances bacons, right?)
Will SEE you in like a week!!!!
