Hi Family,
Our iMac has been the shop this last week. Excited to get that back. Been using our labtop to do things.
Work has keep me busy and between Anadel teething and getting up in shifts to take care of her. Rachel and I were exhausted by the end of the week. Fortunately Saturday and Sunday have given us a good chance to catch up on sleep, rest, and time for aarons and fun!
We just signed up for Netflick. It's great we get a movie in the mail and send it back the next day. We can go through 2 movies a week at this rate.
Speaking of TV... Anadel goes crazy when the children's DVD of Veggie Tales is played on our speaker system. She loves it... and starts clapping her hands and shrieking for joy! No joke. She loves it!
We just recently bought some bikes and a trailer to take our little girl around town in. We were able to find some on sale at a near by sporting goods store and the clerk even gave us some 25% off coupons -Thanks! Anadel ... wasn't sure what to think of riding in a bicycle trailer... although she definitely loves car rides and snuggling on daddy!
Last night I was so tired I just took Anadel to bed with me, just so I could lay down and rest. She liked cuddling with Daddy! Of course I tend to spoil her. Which ... most of the time is fine.
Today, we let her gnaw on a pop-sicle ... coconut flavored. She loveeed it! Of course she sure got coconut pop-sicle everywhere.
Otherwise.. Rachel is busy taking care of Anadel all day. There's probably 10-15 couples with kids that attend church with us on Sunday -in our complex that is. And Rachel takes little "Nana-Dell" out to play with the kids. "Nana-Dell" as the little two year old Jack Jack calls her. There's a swing and playground equipment in the backyard of the complex right next to us.
My life has been commuting in the morning leaving around 6-7AM. Meeting new people at work. Getting acquainted with a new campus that I work at. With several large buildings. And taking care of Video teleconferences for executives at work.
We're doing much better living in a 2 bedroom place with a dish washer! It's heaven in contrast. Plus its so much quieter and the neighborhood is so much more family friendly! Which makes Rachel's life incredibly different.
Love you all, stay in touch.
Ben (Rachel & Anadel)
