Sooooooo I bought the camera.  It's great, the photos are great...I can't wait to learn how to use it more.

Judah has been taking quite a few steps in a row now before sitting down to crawl.  His balance has improved greatly.  He speaks in his own language (that I love, it's the cutest), has 8 teeth, and found and is in love with his belly button.  He thinks the dogs are hilarious, says mama, dada, uh ooooo0o000oo0ooo0ooo (also so cute and love it), hot (or 'ot!'), and says mmmmgk.   Mmmmmgk used to mean that he wanted milk but has now turned into "I want more of whatever youre feeding me", "I want more and faster", or he'll point at something he wants and say it.  He gives kisses when you ask him, waves bye bye to the water going down the drain, and gets excited and tries to say 'duck' when he sees his rubber duckies.

We're re-doing our bedroom.  It's been the most overlooked and unloved place in our house.  How sad.  We finalized a paint color and it should be up by the beginning of next week!  Jared even gave me permission to go buy new curtains (even though I just bought the ones up there now a few months back).  We're also just about ready to paint the china closet and awesome dark, dark plum and the wall cabinets for the kitchen will be going up soon.  I lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvve doing stuff to the house.  I love organization and looking at things that make me smile.  I love my little home.  Oh, and our bed is in the dining room right now.  It's kind of fun.  It feels like we're on vacation or having a slumber party :)

Any who.  That's all for now!

See you along the journey--
