Mea Culpa

Ok, so I'm not posting as often as I wanted to. Here's the latest.

I got promoted at work; my new title is Applications Data Architect. As one of my colleagues pointed out, I've realized my dream of becoming an architect, unlike George Costanza. I still don't know how this translates into more pay and benefits, so we'll see if it's a promotion or a "promotion". The notices go out on Friday.

Dora can recognize all the capital letters and most of the lower-case letters, although pqbd are confusing to her. She is starting to say "her" instead of "she" as the object pronoun, although the transition is by no means complete. Julia is getting bigger and looking cuter all the time. We're a bit concerned that the marks on her face and neck haven't faded. We may have to have her lasered eventually.

Had a good time in DC, although my trip was plagued by the guilt of leaving the wife to deal with the kids by herself. Good dinners though.
