Here's a picture of my beautiful baby girl the day after her 2 month birthday. I even combed her hair! I need some little clips that will stay in her hair. The only ones I have are little velcro bow things, but her hair is too fine for them to hold. Anyway, she's pretty without them (at least her mom thinks so!) Oh, btw, you can see more pictures by clicking on the "My Photos" link on the right.

Nevermind...

So, I'm in S. Utah now, and due to complications, there has been a change of plans. I no longer have a ride back to Sacramento. So, what now? Well, this has got me thinking about not going back at all-especially since that job that I mentioned didn't work out. They decided not to hire the people they certified. Six were certified, one was hired. How dumb is that? So, now we are wondering if it might be better for Aaron to join me rather than me going back to Sacramento. Aaron got a number to call a prospective employer in St. George, so we'll see how that goes. In the meantime, I feel like I'm living in a soap opera or something, but at least I can see my friends and family.

Finally!

Aaron went to a job interview today at a Nissan dealership, and they offered him the job on the spot! This is such a relief, I'm almost giddy! He starts training on Wednesday, and we can't wait for that first check! It's a little scary since he's never done commission based sales, but I think he'll do well, and he is guarenteed income during the training period, so... hurrah for paychecks! :) Whoopee!!! (someone say Yeehaw, please? thank you.) :)

Leonora is almost 2 months now, but until I track down the usb cord for my camera, this is the most recent picture I can get online. Hopefully I'll track down that cord soon, 'cause I've got some more cute pictures! Oh, and for all you Southern Utah people, you'll be able to see the real thing soon! We're planning to visit for about a week and a half. I'll be getting there late Friday night! Whoopee! I am excited to be visiting my family and friends there!
Oh, and I don't think that I mentioned I've started selling Tuperware. (My mom talked me into it). So, anyone who wants to host a Tupperware party while I'm there... well, I could use the money, and hey, you'll get free and cheap Tupperware! And I'll make you a "Blizzard!" Can't beat that now can you!? So, who wants to be first? :)

Update...

Leonora is now 8 weeks old! and as soon as I find a chance to get on the correct computer (which isn't this one) I will post some pictures for you all. The other day I left her laying on her back on the floor after a diaper change and came back to see her on her tummy. This was actually the second time she rolled over! She first did it while Aaron and I were finishing up our packing to move to California. Btw, I can't remember what I posted before about our move- that is if I posted anything... anyway, we're living with Aaron's parents (and sister and thier beagle) in Folsom, California (near Sacramento). It's been interesting being here. Aaron's been looking for a job. He's had a couple of interviews, but we don't know about those jobs yet. He's still been applying for more jobs, and hopefully he'll be able to get started in a job soon. Like yesterday. Meanwhile, the rest of us are trying to figure out how seven people (and a beagle) function in a three bedroom house. Since William doesn't have his own space, he tries his best to make trouble over the entire house. Leonora doesn't seem to mind too much. Personally, it wouldn't be so bad if I weren't being invaded by William all the time. Poor kid, he's got no place that he can just be an exploritory two year old. At least, no place that he won't get into trouble for it. Well, I could babble on longer, but Leonora is crying, so until next time...

Snopes.com

I just wanted to tell you all how cool Snopes.com is. It's a website that checks out all kinds of stories-many that come through email- and sorting out the fact from the fiction. I use it whenever I get one of those scary emails about how rapists and murderers seduce their victems. It's good to know what is and isn't likely to happen. Snopes.com also has lots of interesting facts, trivia, old wives tales and all kinds of things. I find it quite interesting and helpful. Anyway, it's a good website, and I highly recommend it.
