I've got to give credit where credit is due

Just wanted to let everyone know that most of the vacation pictures were taken by Chantal - my sister. She is really great at photography! Thanks sis...

Back to Blogging

Well, I FINALLY got another post up! One reason we didn't get pictures up for a while is because we lost the charger for our camera. After some cleaning under the computer I found it today (with some help from Tanya - Ben's mom). Some things going on since I blogged last... I made freezer corn, canned peaches and canned apple sauce from apples in Ben's parent's yard. Ben's mom is a canning queen and helped me with everything. Also, I was in the E.R. the day my mom came to visit and drop of Squire to college. I was in pain for 14 hours before I wen to the hospital. I had experience similar pain about 5 times before, but it had never lasted this long. So, I have been doing testing to see what it is. It turns out I have gall stones and they think that is what is causing the pain. So, on Wed I go see the surgeon to talk about getting my gallbladder taken out. Luckily I haven't had any more pain for the past couple of weeks.

Ben still doesn't have a job, but he is looking diligently, and will hear early next week to see if he get a job selling insurance. He thinks he might really enjoy doing that - please pray for us! Ben needs a job!! We just need to get through the next few months till he graduates in December. Then he will hopefully have a job lined up in Boise.

Daniel is just cute as can be! He is a really fast crawler now, and into EVERYTHING!! He often searches the apartment for something he never noticed before. But it is really nice because he doesn't need me to entertain him very much. He is really a happy little guy. Right now he has a cold though.

Something I have been thinking about lately... I have a hard time wrapping my head around the truth that my Heavenly parents care for me as much as I care for Daniel. But I know it is true - just hard to understand when I cannot see them.

Look at those Teeth!!



What a happy little guy!

In his crib





Since he was in such a posing mood I decided to do another pose. These were taken after he was cleaned up from the high chair (the next set of pics).

Daniel is such a poser! He smiled for the camera. I wish he would have done that in his photoshoot with Misty!!

Taking Daniel on vacation



We thought it would be funny to take some pics with Daniel in the suit case. I guess he did too!
