Work is proving to be an interesting distraction from waiting for codename: CAMPER to decide to grace the outside-of-womb world with his presence. And no, we still don’t have a solid name; and yes, we may be bringing him home with a birth certificate that reads: Baby Boy Hattaway. And yes, we’ve discussed that as [...]
