i am not proud of my blogging lapse.  i will try to be better about it.  i apologize.

my grandpa scanned in a lot of old photos and created a photo cd. there are a lot of good memories here, and everyone appreciates the hard work that went into his effort. i have ripped the photos and uploaded them to my flickr account so everyone can enjoy.

it took me 3.5 hours to get home yesterday, if you were curious.

ever wonder what a presidential entourage looks like?  well now you know.

addie is feeling better today.  we are still giving her steroids and nebulizer treatments, but she appears to be breathing better and having bursts of energy.  however, she is still tired a lot and fighting this infection.  we will be calling the doctor soon to update her at her request.

i posted a new video of addie walking to my .mac web gallery.  you can check out the gallery here:

you can’t say we aren’t prepared for the dirty bum!  i have never seen someone so excited over butt wipes before!

addie had a front row seat the night santana was pitching.  she was also sporting her new polka dotted pajama bottoms!  go twins!

addie thought it was so much fun to be in the bath tub with her clothes on!

i was able to snap a shot of addie conquering the couch.  once she reached the summit she gave us a big smile!

feisty jack russell dies after saving five children from a pit bull.  my parents should appreciate this since they have a jack russell.  however, their jack russell is addicted to dingo bones, and is kinda chubby.
