Ok. I love these kids, and we've had tons of fun, but if their parents don't get in tonight (ETA: due to snow), we may all end up dead.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Is it still taboo to wear white to a funeral? How about ivory to a memorial service? (my nice sweater is ivory)

eta: nebbermind, my grandmother's black sweater still fits.

The parents' flight is delayed. I'd bet good money they're not coming home till tomorrow.

Is it ok if the six month old I'm watching keeps flipping onto his stomach in the crib?

I thought it was red you shouldn't wear to a funeral. Maybe it's just one of those local things.

Because books.

He's probably used to doing it in his sleep, sj. I wouldn't worry. Some babies are tummy sleepers whether you want them to be or not, once they can roll.

Thanks Amy. We picked him up because he is sick and teething and very unhappy.

vw, that sucks. I hope they are able to fly in soon.

The baby is not happy unless Dave walks him around the room, and I am such a meanie head to daring to wipe his drippy nose.

Now tagless for your comfort.

vw, is there a ground stop at Logan? I thought I saw that on CNN. But I may be confusing it with a southern airport. Regardless, it looks like anything coming into the Eastern seaboard is frelled.
