Nelson tidbits

1 more week until we get our key to our new place. We are buried in boxen right now.
We sold our piano a few days ago and some piano movers came to pick up our piano. The time from when they knocked on the front door to the piano being in their truck was about 40 seconds flat. I think it shocked Kiera a bit: 2 big guys coming quite abruptly into our house and taking our piano. She watched out the window as the truck drove away and was a bit upset about it and even today she asked me "can I have my piano back?". Because of these emotions I've seen coming up in her I've been trying to warn her about the upcoming move telling her about what is going to happen. I hope she will be ok with it.

My n' the ladies ran through the sprinklers in the front yard today and ate popcicles. I think the neighbors probably thought I was crazy, but we have fun.

My little girls are so funny. I go into their room every night to check on them and both of them are either wearing the plastic princess dress-up shoes, or have them neatly laid next to them on the bed. They have got to be terribly uncomforable to sleep in. I always laugh when lydia has them over the top of her footed jammies. It is just so important to be beautiful when you are sleeping! Also, Lydia can't get them herself which means that Kiera is getting them for her. I think it is cute to see them play together a nap time and bedtime and become friends. I love my ladies.

The poor little lady's world is being turned upside down. That house and piano is the only world she has ever known. It's a good thing she has a loving mommy to help her deal with significant change for the first time in her life. Your description of the girls and their shoes brought a big smile to my face...I can picture it in my head.

THIS GUY   has to be having a hard time right now in Utah trying to make a name for himself and selling his music given that THIS GUY has quite a musical history too and has more press coverage.   Some people are just born to have bad luck.

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...
