The Happening (not to be confused with a lame movie)


Those teeth can tear through wire- isn't she sweet.


The new entertainment play center. I have a feeling this won't last long.


Me and My Bros. in Lodi. John, Ellie and I, and Rick.

I have some of the Book of Mormon CDs on my iPod, which is cool when I want to listen to it BUT so not cool when its on shuffle.

Other news, I'm 99% sure Ellie is left handed, quite possibly lactose intolerant and 100% adorable. She is getting into everything. I had to turn our entertainment center with all our DVDs and CDs into a playhouse today so she wouldn't tear everything out and to take her attention away from all the cords/ outlets in the house. YES, Ellie is obsessed with electricity and putting it in her mouth= not cool. Those teeth can tear through anything. She is almost 11 months now, just love her. I'm very excited that she can be in the states for her 1st BD and have Papa cake--can't wait.

Andrew and I will be going to my grandma Miller's funeral in Angel's Camp this weekend. She had pancreatic cancer among other things and I'm sad that she's not with us any more but so happy she is out of her horrible pain. I had the opportunity of traveling to Lodi last week and visiting with her for a moment with Ellie. We had a nice talk and she was so happy to see Ellie. She was an incredibly strong, beautiful woman and always made me laugh. We will miss her very much.

Nooo... Ellie would never munch on cables. She looks too sweet and innocent to get into trouble.

I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother passing.

That's nice that she got to spend some time with you and the baby (4 generations), before her passing. We'll be seeing yall soon.

GOod to read up on what you've been doing since we saw you last... Ellie is so adorable, it made me laugh out loud that she can tear through anything with those sweet little baby teeth! haha! I'm glad Ellie got to spend time with your grandma- even though she won't remember it, it helps establish a connection when you talk about your grandma to her when she gets older. What is your timing like for Germany? How have you guys been feeling? We've been stressing out but now that things are in motion it's getting less chaotic. We're so excited. We'll be in touch my friend!
