Behind The Scenes

I am not a bad blogger- just one busy working on trying to better her blog! I've created a website on my computer but I'm trying to figure that whole process out of getting a domain and then publishing my site. And Rob doesn't want me to spend any money. Hmm. I had one plan and it did not work out. I'm working on the next plan which is pretty labor intensive but I have high hopes. I've never saved any of my 161 postings (now 162) and so I'm having to go through and save them all. I will be saving them all from now on though, I promise, because this is a pain in the butt! Has anybody out there ever "reformatted" their digital camera? If you choose to "reformat" your camera, you will lose all your pictures. You can ask my dad about it- he's done it. Twice. I don't know what I'm doing really and I'm afraid of doing something like that where I end up losing the last two years' work in the process. So.. there's been lots of work going on with the blog, but it's all been behind the scenes stuff!

Here's a picture of Rex from about two minutes ago-



He's doing really great these days. He's totally a pro at rolling over in any direction. He sits up pretty well on his own but you still have to be close by because he will start to lean too far in one direction and then fall over. He hasn't yet grasped the "it's time to stop because I will fall over if I go any further" concept. He does not seem to have any interest in crawling yet which is okay with me. I'm sure he'll be cruising around in no time and I will really have my hands full then! You can see his bottom two teeth in the picture there and he's been working on getting the top two in for the last two weeks. The first two just popped right through but this next set of two are taking forever which has made for one crabby little dude. Not crabby all the time but a little here and there. Rob has been sick the last week- he's feeling pretty good today and seems to be over it- but that made for two cranky dudes in the house. And that made me pretty cranky because I was trying to help them and they would both just crab at me. I'm glad things seem to be looking up today.

The weather was really nice this weekend (highs in the 40s) but it's getting a little cold again for the next few days. Last year, it was just bad-cold all the time. This winter we seem to be getting some nice breaks in between which makes the bad days a lot more tolerable. In the last few weeks since I blogged, we had a record-setting cold day where the low was -29 and it was -45 with the wind chill. Brrr.

Today is our two-year anniversary. It's been an eventful two years, that's for sure! We are very blessed and thankful for everything we have and all the experiences we've enjoyed in that time. As Rob would say, it's pretty cool.
