Yesterday was a landmark day for the Dastrups. "Why?" you ask. Because we were able to take Jacob hiking for the first time without him crying the ENTIRE hike as he did on our last two attempts! It was wonderful. We went to Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument, which is only about 45 min. from our house. There are some cool rock formations that look like upside-down ice-cream cones (or tee-pees) that I've never seen before that were supposedly formed by volcanic vents. We hiked through some slot canyons and really enjoyed ourselves. During our whole 2+ hour hike, JD only required about 15 minutes of Baby Einstein towards the end to stay happy. Success!

We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
