Thanks grandma and gramps

By -
Mom is officially headed your way (Utah). The weather was supposed to be pretty bad for the next few days. I'm doing ok anyway-- just weak and not eating quite normally. But I can handle life pretty well i'd say.

THANK YOU to both grandma and gramps for sacrificing for our family's behalf. Steve and I were trying to think of a way we could give a big THANK YOU to them...gift cards, a special trip somewhere... But we concluded that the thing they would appriciate the most is a visit from their granddaughters. So, we purchaced flights to come to Utah, we are coming March 13th-19th for a "thank you" visit.

Christa tells me to hold off on any vacation planning: They'll be here on business and they're trying to get the Nelsons to re-schedule their visit.

I'm thinking Christmas time or mid Summer would be more fun/relaxing but I'll take you guys any time I can! Just be aware that the week before BrainShare I'm going to be very busy at work. As for it being a sacrifice. Just take a look into Kiera's or Lydia's face and think of what you would do for them. Now realize you are my child and helping a child is just what you do...you don't think of it as any sacrifice.

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. 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...
