A Rose(nthal) by any other name...

I thought I would have a little fun today at work with my last name that I will be giving up (exactly 1 week from today). So here are some pointless facts about Rosenthal! Yes this is what I do at work when people don't want to go outside when it's 47 degrees out and rainy!

A picture is worth a thousand words!


Yes that's right, a giant veil wearing bridezilla has been spotted in Illinois! If you come into contact with the beast duck and cover!
In a short 15 days Sean, Killian and I will on our way to California! All things wedding related are getting finished. Killian's flower girl dress is done and looks adorable, Thanks Mom! I picked up my dress Friday along with a veil and jewelry and it all is sinking in for me now. My list just sits next to me all day mocking me. I can not wait until the day when I can cross off the final item and put it in the shredder.
Now to what everyone really wants to read about: Killian!
This week Killian is breaking in 3 new molars to go with the 1 she just got. Other then a little more slobber and waking up at night a couple of times you would never know. She is a real trooper.
She is finally saying Ian! It has taken some extra work but I am sure Ian will think it was worth it. Side note: she doesn't always say it, she still just laughs quite a bit when we get to Ian's picture in her book.
Killian has learned mommy's scowl face. Poor Sean now gets to deal with both his girls giving him dirty looks all day.
That is all I can come up with for now. It may take awhile to get another post on here since we leave in 2 weeks from tomorrow. I will try very hard to update when we get back. And I guess I will have to come up with a new blog title....
