Procrastination

This morning I have no excuses anymore.  I must confess.  We can't find the camera.  Make that- I can't find the camera.  I guess I lost it; those kinds of things are usually my fault.  I personally think that there are little elves in my house that steal things from me just so I can look dumb in front of Jared.  (A note to my sisters: Stand Down.  The elves are just stealing from me, not talking to me or giving me revelation or telling me I'm the Queen of England.  I'm allowed to have a delusion every once in a while if it doesn't hurt anyone :).)  I think when your kids get older, the elves give them the job of messing with your mind.  That way you can continue to think you're sane even when you've lost your grip on reality.  I look forward to such times.  

Meanwhile, even though you can't see a picture of him, G-man continues to be as cute as ever.  Mornings he is especially charming (as if to say "You know you want to get up and play with me even though it is only 6:30 am").  He is amazingly easy going about eating.  He tries new things all the time without any fuss at all.  This morning I found some oatmeal in the cupboard.  Hallelujah, it wasn't expired!  A little cinnamon and some applesauce and he ate it right up.  I don't know if you believe in Karma, but by all indications of me while growing up, I should have gotten the child who refuses to eat anything.  We are so lucky.  His teeth are continuing to emerge.  Most of the time, they don't bug him too much.  He also is learning to prefer upright motion to just crawling.  He will take a couple of steps while falling towards the object of his desires instead of dropping to his knees immediately.  

I promise that more pictures will be coming soon.  Scout's honor and all that.  Jared just bought one that he likes off ebay last night.  It may not be all that I want, but it is at least a newer model than our old one, so maybe it will take pictures faster.
