OK

Ok I will not stop my blog, but all of you MUST stop with the comments, emails, and phone calls. I love the "don't feel bad, BUT..." or "I understand BUT...". You are tricky tricky family members "don't feel guilty, BUT DO!" I got it.  So now I expect you all to keep avidly reading even when our lives are dull. So here goes....
Yesterday my computer completely messed up. I have no clue what happened! But I was convinced I had lost all of my pictures for good. If this has ever happened to you, you know the absolute dread and terror that comes with it. I cried and panicked for a long while. Then I found the pictures and they were all there (which was a HUGE relief!) but they are not at all where they go. All my files have been lumped together in one HUGE picture file which is soooo aggravating because I had them all categorized by dates and events and now they are just all scrambled and it drives me crazy. So I thought ok, I can deal with that...I will have to slowly put them back where they go which is a hassle but I can deal. Well I just tried to upload new pics and videos from my camera (for this post) and it won't even upload them. So obviously something has happened to our computer and now we are going to have to take it in. GRRR sometimes I really hate technology. So...you could be looking at pics and video of aiden right now, but you're not. 
As for aiden, we are convinced that he is going to get some teeth soon. Every night he is soooo cranky and upset and his little gums are swollen and he is just a very unhappy baby, which is very unlike him so we know something is wrong. I just wish they would hurry up. 
Now for ben, thank you for those that have been praying for our job/ nomad situation we have going on. Ben had an interview monday afternoon that he felt went well and then they called him back for a second interview tomorrow afternoon. We are thinking that is a very good sign. So keep up the prayers!
As for me, I have now lost 13lbs on my diet which is good but it is just so slow coming off that it's aggravating. 13 down just 75 more to go! haha actually not QUITE that much but sure does feel like it!

Okay, first of all, thank you. Your "boring" life excites us more than you will ever know. And I agree with your mom, this has been a great way for all of us to stay connected.

I am so glad that you "found" all your pictures. I have had that happen and it is an awful feeling. I really hope that Ben's work situation works out.

Again, thank you for continuing the blog. I am taking a break from the garden and canning and I was looking back on the blog at the halloween blogs and pictures from the past years and it made me think just how different your holidays are going to be from now on. You will have a new found appreciation of the holidays through Aidens eyes.

Love you all

Make sure you BACK-UP your pictures on a disc...It will happen eventually, the total crash. And, it will make you sick to lose all of those pictures. I'm so glad you are keeping up with the blog!! Can't wait to get Aiden. Let me handle the teething thing and crying. You don't need to worry about that. He'll be just fine.

Thank you, Thank you for continuing your blog. We are like MaMa Fresh...your most boring day could be compared to our most exciting. Jason sends us pictures of Jacob by way of the computer also. Charley looks so forward to receiving pictures of both boys and watching them change. I am looking forward to seeing Aiden at the wedding and having my turn to hold him.
