Yay, America.

gotta love free money. it turns out r and i are sooo poor that we qualified for two additional refunds beyond our original refund this year. it really does pay to have kids: we are getting an additional child tax credit AND an addition earned income credit because we had parker. yippie.

parker participated in her first 4th of july parade in our complex this morning. even though she was up crying/throwing up all night, our girl was plenty game to march (err, be pushed in her stroller) in the parade. we'll see if she's up for fireworks tonight...
