In other news......

Everything pales in comparison to the birth of my Grandchild #7, but there has been quite a bit of other stuff going on around here this past week. First, I had to unload a trailer full of rocks. Ugh. Then I had to remove our old countertops & kitchen sink so we could get new granite countertops. I then had to redo the piping under the sink to fit the new faucet and countertops. What can I say...life "rocks" lately. Nelson's have arrived on the premises. Stevo included this time. I was really looking forward to playing on the tramp and in the playhouse with them! However....it's been snowing almost constantly since they arrived. We took a trek to Emmy's house so Cambrie & crew can now envision where they live. Yesterday there was a "girl" date to a ballroom dance concert. Benjamin went with Uncle Steve to a BYU football scrimmage, all the ladies went to a BYU Ballroom dance concert (except Katie & Lindy...for some reason they whimped out on the event). Jacob and Ty and I had a "man afternoon" playing trucks and watching shows. I take the Nelson parents to the airport this AM so they can go find a place to live in Illinois. No worries, they're returning Wednesday evening to reunite with the two little lovely ladies. Steve will go back to slaving away while Cambrie & Princesses stay on for 2 weeks to try this surrogacy thing one more time. I hope the weather improves.

Good times! It would be a fun tradition....when we can get Cambrie back close enough to do it.

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...
