Some photos I've taken recently.

Here are some photo's I've taken for my photography class. I really like them and thought I'd share. I was working on lighting and different types. I hope you enjoy.

We've Moved!!!

We have moved from our apartment in West Jordan to another in North Salt Lake. This puts us much closer to Murray's job as well as to the University of Utah where Murray will be attending school come August, PLUS it's much less expensive (always a good thing, right?). It will take a bit of getting used to but We are excited for the new adventure! Pictures possibly later--after everything is clean and put away! :)

Nine Months Old!!!

Our little angel is nine months old today--I know I say it every month but I just can't believe how quickly he is growing. Andrew's newest trick is waving "bye-bye" to people. He is full of smiles and hands them out freely to friend and stranger alike. He is also cutting three teeth on the top all at the same time, needless to say he is in a bit of pain but I guess that also means that his teeth are coming in quickly instead of one at a time which will somewhat shorten his discomfort (hopefully!) Anyway on to the cute pictures of our amazing little man!

The Most Important Unanswered Question To Date

Work went well for me today. There wasn't much excitement. Joe and I were on the Falcon lift doing the mirrors at the very top above the fountain in the Conference Center. We were unable to finish them because a contractor needed the lift to put up a few speakers. We could have finished it, but we were told it was going to be used at 7am. We moved it and around 9:30 they finally showed up. *much grumbling*

The best part of my day though was seeing Georgette and Andrew at lunch. It's become a tradition for them to come downtown to visit on Tuesdays for lunch. We had our usual hangabur's and "freedom fries". After work, we took Joe to school and went to our apartment to pick up a coupon for a free "peek at the goods" check at the hospital where we go for Georgette's baby checkups. Then a short trip to the hospital to use the coupon and a quick trip to Pixels to pick up some photos for my photography class.

We ran to a credit union and Andrew was starting to fuss and complain about his short incarceration in his car seat. Evidently, he complained that he never had a lawyer to represent him and thought it unconstitutional. I dropped them off at our soon to be former apartment and I went to my Religious Diversity and Photography class.

I missed Physics due to a small, minor, peanut checkup, but my teacher said it was ok and to remind him when I hand in my hand-in assignment on Thursday. Now I am getting ready to take a Trig test while Andrew is asleep and Georgette is hard at work on our second baby.

Where do the days go?

Lately, Georgette and I have been wondering where all the time has gone. Each day, Andrew seems to be getting bigger and bigger and more developed.
He is learning so much now too. He's not quite walking yet, or talking, but he can open and close doors that are not closed completely. He loves to eat while we are eating at the table. We set him up with his Bumbo and the attachment to make it into a high chair and give him his food. He makes quite the mess most of the time with a little bit of food making it into his mouth.
I don't know how he grows so fast, there must be some miracle grow in his mattress or something and he absorbs it while he's sleeping. We think he's teething again because he keeps waking up during the night crying and all he wants is to be held.
This next Tuesday, we will find out what kind of baby we are having now. We are hoping for a human baby this time. Andrew seems to be from the primate variety with a tinge of beaver. Just kidding, Georgette is hoping for a girl and I am wanting a boy, mainly because a girl eventually turns 16 and starts to date. Then they have to go off and get married. Plus, it seems that boys are much easier to deal with in comparison. This comes from my, uh, plethora of experience with children...
I've been trying to teach Andrew to give me 5. I'll hold out my hand and take his hand and slap mine saying, "gimme 5, gimme 5, Yea, Yea, gimme 5!" Andrew laughs at it and seems to enjoy it, hopefully he will be as cool as his daddy someday...

Here are a few pictures that stood out to me while I was reflecting on Andrew's life thus far. Enjoy!

Look at this cupcake!

We had a small party for Don on Wednesday last week. It was a good birthday party and Andrew had a chance to indulge in some chocolate cupcake bliss. These are the results.
