We're back. . .

So we ordered a new power cord and our computer is now up and running--so grateful that's all it was! We got back from our trip to WA after 1 am on Thursday, and Saki's back to work. We had a marvelous time with the Hoffmans and Robert and Camille and will post photos soon--just be patient as I try to catch up on emails etc! Sunday will likely be the day I will do that (tomorrow).

DEAD COMPUTER

Just so you all know I'm not ignoring your emails or blogs and to apologize for a lack of posts for awhile---our computer died Friday, so our access to the internet will be limited for some time :( we will also be in WA the end of May, Saki will have his cell phone... Eliz

Photo Shoot-4 months

The black slug is made by my brother Robert-he has made these slug pillows for all my siblings, I had the origional which was so worn out he made me this new one this Christmas :) The caterpillar and leaf are from my friend Ashley.

New car!

     
So our old car didn't pass inspection, so we decided it would be wiser to use the money towards a newer car rather than put the money in the old one. I am sad to let our old car go, it was so roomy, and I've grown attached to it with the many miles we put on it. We have been so blessed that it's run as well as it has and we are so thankful to Anna and Kuru for giving it to us when we came out to Vernal carless! 

      There's not a lot of car places out here but after lots of looking (thanks Thomas!) and stressing and talking we were able to find a 2003 Buick Regal, and get financed--I'm not looking forward to car payments:( But we hope this car will serve us well. I've never had a car this nice and new before, and its kind of fun. 

She did it!

This morning while I was taking a nap Mere rolled over! I came into the room and there she was on her stomach looking around! I rolled her on her back and she rolled over again! Wow--now we have to be extra careful in the tub! Sometime this week I will try to charge the video camera and get a video of her rolling. . . I've been reading an excellent book on baby/child sleep from our friends in the ward called Good Night, Sleep Tight and one parent was saying how their child got fussy before a new stage of development like rolling over, so I hope after a rough week Meresiana will be back to her 8-12 hour stretches of sleep! We shall see. . . 

It's been a crazy couple weeks with Saki's work, having to get a new car, and some things going on here--we found out we won't be able to move back into our old house and are contemplating what to do next with Saki's school and all, so pray with us that we can know God's will for our next step in life! And yeah again for Mere!
