So our computer crashed.  And became unrepairable.  Quite annoying.  We were left with a laptop my dad gave me, which saved our sanity but it was very, very slow.  As a result, I had to stop my addiction of Gardens of Time on Facebook and also this blog.  After trying several attempts to fix our computer, we finally got another one. 


Since I don't scrapbook, I am going to spend a couple of posts updating this blog so I have the memories, without having to cut out and glue pieces of paper.  More power to the scrapbookers, I just can't do it.  Makes me feel like a big fat failure when it sits and waits for me to do something, like organize pictures.  Not relaxing at all!!  Anyway, here we go!

Over Thanksgiving, we drove to Texas to spend time with Jason's family.  We (stupidly) decided to switch Lily to her forward facing car seat.  Huge mistake!  She was so overstimulated she did not sleep at all.  Let's just say we were considering selling her at the border of Louisiana and Texas.  But Nana was happy to have her and we got to have a nice break from hearing her screams.  She was MUCH better on the way back because we switched her to rear facing on the Louisiana and Texas border on the way there.

While there, Lily was walking some, but mostly pushing her little push toys around.  We found she walked best in places she was most comfortable so by the time we left Nana's, she was doing a lot more walking around. 

At Thanksgiving at Jason's Aunt Richie and Uncle Joe's, Lily was really good and loved on by everyone.  We spent a great time with Jason's cousins' and extended family.  They are so much fun and great to talk to.  We announced to everyone there that we were expecting our second child.  Much sooner than we planned but there is truth to the saying that "Man plans and God laughs."  We are living examples.  Next time we go out to Texas, we will be a family of 4!

Wish we took pictures or videos, but of course we didn't.  Next time!
