More stuff

So in effort to keep this blog alive, I post my second blog in less than one week!

For those of you who may not know, Ava is now over 4 months old! The picture was taken on Easter Sunday...my two ladies! I'm a lucky man. Ava got 3 more shots at her 4 month appointment, and she took them like a champ! She was a little confused by the pain, and immediately after the 3rd one she let out a quick scream...and then turned to Tenielle and laughed! Not sure if that is a good sign or not :) We are about to start her out on a little bit of cereal, but we haven't tried yet...although we bought some. Maybe tonight?

She has now started to really enjoy making noise too! She babbles constantly and loves to hear herself talk. If we encourage her enough, she has quite the giggle fits now too. We have some video of it so maybe i'll try to post that in the next day or 2.

We bought a new truck! We figured with how full we would pack the Santa Fe for a weekend up north just for the two of us, there was no way it would accomodate us now with Ava and all of the extra items we need to bring up north. So we ditched the Elantra (enjoy Jocelyn) and picked up a Honda Ridgeline. We really like it! Here's the only picture I have of it so far. Just got the tonneau cover installed tonight! Looks great! In most lights, the truck looks black as night, but in the right sunlight it will also look like a deep blue...pretty cool, huh!

For Justine

In response to Justine's comments on my last post, I have the following:

The card tournament went really well. I was playing awesome. Then I realized how nice it was outside, and asked myself....do you really want to waste this beautiful Saturday afternoon in a stuffy house when you could be outside having a cocktail and relaxing??? Choice was clear...so I dumped all of my chips and left. I happened to be the first one to leave, but plenty of other people followed my lead shortly after from what I hear.

I'm not really sure if you honestly think Tenielle would have input on the Vikings draft, but I can provide you with my thoughts. Maybe they will trigger a response from some of you who actually know something. Here's what I know. Vikes draft 17th. My guess is they'll end up picking DeAngelo Williams. If Cutler is still avail at that point, which I doubt, I would hope we'd take him instead...We MIGHT want a younger QB.

Otherwise I might say we should pick "Mean" Joe Green. He's good.

My contact at Winter Park is on vacation this week, so sorry, I can't provide you with any 'top secret' info this week...

And who cares about the Vikes right now anyway? It's baseball season. And early fishing season.

So, Justine, I hope that provides some food for thought or something. Feel free to comment or leave your opinions. I'm sure my blog will now be a sports topic hotbed. It's certain.

Lamest blog of the year contest...

Apparently people are voting for my site to win the lamest blog of the year contest? They must have something against me personally, because the content in this blog is first rate!

I must appologize for the lack of commitment I've put towards this...i know a lot of you have such boring lives that this blog...yes THIS blog, is one of the most entertaining things you have going...so i DO appologize. Hopefully all of you have made it through this without suffering from withdrawl too much.

So the past month and a half, i've been drafting up my next entry. Unfortunately i've run out of things to discuss! Apparently i'm not all that interesting. But to fill space and appease the masses, I'll write about Ava.

Ava is now 3 1/2 months old and changing every day. We just added pictures to the website last week from the past month or so. If you don't know...the site is at http://65.27.127.201. She loves to smile and laugh and talk now and is ALWAYS happy. I think it's mostly because of how proud she is to have such attractive parents. But that's up for debate.

She started daycare today :( When Tenielle dropped her off, she seemed to be OK! She was happy and curious to watch the other kids in the infant group. I'm sure she'll make lots of friends! Although she's 3 1/2 months, so she'll probably forget them after an hour or two and make them all over again.

Oh, and since I believe it is now public knowledge...Contrats Karen and Mike! We can't wait for Ava's cousin to arrive! And even if it wasn't public knowledge, I think only Mike and Justin read my blog anyway.

There is a $50 dollar buy in poker game this saturday in prior lake that i'm playing in and there are some spots left...so if you are interested in playing, let me know! I would love to take your $50.

Ok, that's all I have time for..until next time (date TBD)...
