Little Sean and I got back last night from New York for a surprise visit to Oma and Opa’s house (my dad and Colleen) in New York. They are due to come visit in a week or so for their spring break, but I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to surprise them! I surprised Colleen at her work and Dad at home when he got home from work. They were just thrilled to meet Little Sean for the first time and spent all four days with him in their arms! They are definitely in love! I snapped a lot of pictures, including some of my mom tapping her maple trees at the cabin to make maple syrup. All in all, it was a great visit and we look forward to having my Dad and Colleen visit us in a little over a week!

This website offers great prices to list an ad for rental properties. If my house doesn’t sell quickly, this is where we will be listing 🙂 Prices look really good.

Sean (the big sean, not the lil sean) works for CarDomain.com and they are looking to get more content on their website. If you are in a car club and want to spread the word about it, check this out:
We’re looking for people as crazy about cars as we are to give us the inside scoop on all the great auto events happening around the world. Everything is on the table, from 4×4 parties in the woods to hot rod meets at the local hamburger joint to Friday night showdowns at the drag strip.
You don’t have to be a photographer. You just have to take pictures. It’s a great way to get press for your car club, or just show off your pictures to the world. Plus, submitting events earns CarDomain swag! Interested? Click Here
Oh – did I mention you get free stuff for doing it? You will get a free CarDomain Tshirt for each event you cover (they make really cool shirts too! I’ve got two or three). They are working on other stuff to sweeten the pot as well.

We got the photo CD from Steph Carson yesterday, and they turned out great 🙂 I’ll let Emily post how to get to the photos and stuff – we will have to resize them to fit in our gallery but will also provide a link that people can use to order copies of the photos. I’ll post some later this evening to the gallery.

Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better on the computer. They had been going at it for days, and God was getting tired of the constant bickering. Finally God said, “Cool it! I am going to set up a test that will run two hours, and I will decide once and for all who does the better job.”
So Satan and Jesus sat down at their respective keyboards and began typing away. They moused; they did spreadsheets; they wrote reports; they sent faxes; they sent emails; they sent out emails with attachments; they downloaded; they blogged; they did some genealogy reports; they made cards; they did every known job. But 10 minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed across the sky. Thunder clapped, rain poured, and, of course, the electricity went off!
Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld. Jesus just sighed. The electricity finally flickered back on, and each of them restarted his computer. Satan started searching frantically and screamed, “It’s gone! It’s all gone! I lost everything when the power went off!”
Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the past two hours of diligent work. Satan observed this and became irate. “Hold on!” he said. “He cheated! How could this be?”
God shrugged and said, “Everyone knows that Jesus saves.”

So my family has an obsession with a video clip from the internet. We constantly are saying “Surely?” and “Now my head” (while patting our heads) to each other as onlookers and household visiters look at us like we have 3 heads…until they see the video. It’s a little girl reciting Psalm 23. I’ve never seen such a cute thing in my life (well, except our little boy) and I had to finally post it. We watch it almost every day.
Surely?

Gotta do some catch-up on my posts! I put some more pictures from this weekend up on the “1 month” page. We set up his crib (finally) and there\’s a few of him in there checking it out for the first time 🙂
Sean had his 1 month checkup at the doctor Wednesday. He is around the 50th percentile for height, weight and head size, so he’s doing great! He’s gained a TON of weight and is no longer a little tiny boy…he’s sprouted to 21.25 inches long and 9lbs 8oz!! He’s growing up so fast; today he held a rattle in his hand for about 5 minutes and was shaking it and talking to it. He also has been smiling at me often. He sure knows how to melt my heart!
On top of growing up so big, he accomplished a huge feat last night. We’ve been trying to get him to take naps in his crib to get used to it, and have been toying around with the idea of him sleeping at night in there (it’s just so easy to have him sleep with me). Last night I tried it and he slept in the crib from midnight – 230am, ate at 230am, then slept in the crib until 530am, ate again, and slept again in there until 830am! Wow! What a great night of sleep for me! We’re trying this again tonight!
His uncle Brian made him look like a rock star with his phone rattle today. Check out that and other pictures from Tuesday on…
Also, Steph Carson wrote me and said that she put 3 pictures up on her blog from Saturday. They are unbelievable. The first one is of Sean is Paul’s “bumblebee” outfit from 1975. The second one is Paul holding Sean’s foot, and the third is of Megabyte. Steph fell in love with her and had to take some pictures of her! Check them out by clicking here.

I can’t believe that our little baby boy is 1 month old today! Time sure flies; although it feels like years since I was pregnant. Happy 1 month birthday Little Sean! Quit growing up so fast!
