no pictures yet

I can't find the cable that connects the camera to the computer! There are at least 50 pictures on there and several videos that I can't wait to share!

Just a cute story to share from today. I took the dog out and got the mail, when I got to the door to come back in, Paul had crawled over to the door and was standing up looking through the window at me. But they way he was standing I couldn't open the door or I would knock him over. Poor guy just wanted me and I couldn't get to him. Daddy came to the rescue though. It was the cutest and also the most sad thing all at once. Precious baby crying for mommy and mommy can't get there, and it was the first time that he crawled after me, heart melting! :)
Off to go get the fire set for sleeping and to bed I go.

So nice

I can not tell you how nice it is to be back in contact with people! There is something very isolating about not being able to leave the house, call anyone or even email/chat with people. I think it's going to take several days to get used to this again! Sure does lift the spirit though.

I don't remember how long it has been since we have had a reliable computer AND internet connection, at least 5 months, so there is a lot to catch up on. I have a ton to say, but not sure if I'll get to it all right now. Paul's been asleep for awhile, so due to wake up soon.

First, Paul is HUGE and crawling and cruising. I'll get some pictures up here in the next few days. Have to relearn everything, and find all my passwords! Lost all of that when the computer died months ago. I'm not sure how much he weights, somewhere around 25 to 28 pounds and he's about 27 inches tall. Still nursing all the time. When he crawls he uses his feet and hands, not his knees, it's super cute! I have a video of it, I'll try to figure out how to post it, we'll see :). Oh, he's 8 and a half months old! It goes so fast.

These last few months have been very trying. Just finally have we gotten back to a somewhat 'normal' life. Between moving, fixing the new place, fixing the old place, a trip to CT and running out of money completely, it's so nice to finally be putting things back into place.

I think I'll leave it at that. Trying to put the last months into words is just proving too hard to do :). Just glad to have an outlet now and be back into contact with others.

We're back

I don't know where to begin! So I'm just going to say I'm here again and I will reply and fill you all in on the last few months once I'm not totally overwhelmed by the ability to actually talk to people :).

What a week

We are currently visiting Chip's family due to his father's health. Also we wanted Paul to meet his grandfather. :) It has been so crazy. That's what you get to leaving at the last minute with no plans! But the main point of the trip was for Paul and grandpa to meet. (his dad's health has been up and down and it looked VERY bad a week ago).

This is the first time in I'd say about 2 or three weeks that I have been able to just 'chill' for any amount of time, and we have internet here at his dad's.

Paul is HUGE! I'll get some picutures uploaded once we get back. He is not liking all the driving (things here are SO very far apart timewise). He's also too interesed in all the new sights, sounds and faces to sleep, so he's been a very tired baby Paul, but still good natured like always. I can not believe he will be 7 months in a week, it is beyound my comprehension that he has grown so fast. It seriously seems like yesterday that he was born and a totally helpless newborn. Now he can roll over, grab things, reach, pull, sit up and he's trying to get the crawling thing down.

Chip has started RCIA, it's much like it was when I went through, but it is nice to have the extra incentive to learn more about the faith at home.

I don't know what else is new. And I'm suddenly very tired, can't wait to go to sleep. Have to wait for Chip to finish getting the hitch on. Okay, off I go. I'm sure I won't be able to post again for a few weeks. We are leaving here Sunday and tomorrow is crazy busy, then when we get home we have to move.

hello again

A quick recap. Still no net, we got one of the older computers working but it can't have the net. The first few days were hard, then I realized that I was getting a lot done :), but now it's been a month and the novelty has worn off! :) Hopefully once we move hopefully we'll have it.

Paul is getting big, still 20 pounds, but getting longer. He's growing so fast! Chip is back to his old schedule (5pm to 3am) which is nice. I had so much more I had planned on saying, but it has been forgotten! (of course). Oh, we got the digital camera out of layaway, so once we have the net I will post lots of pictures.

here's a note from Paul.

crazy stuff

We are currently computerless. I'llreply to everyone once we either get it fixed (not likely it's the hard drive on a laptop) or get a new one - which will be awhile.

We had a small fire the other day, that was pretty scary. Okay Paul's getting upset (we are at the library) so I should go.
