Jake's Grandpa came to visit today! He came bearing gifts - a new CD burner for me (w/CD's) - so if I take pictures of you and you want a CD I can EASILY do that now! YAY!
Then we went to a BBQ competition in Lockhart - that was fun, but HOT! Arnold and his girlfriend Amy were judging and got Dad in on the action - he got to judge the finals for RIBS! YUM!
I think reignited Jess' interest in participating in BBQ competitions, which is exciting! Hopefully, they can get the pit done so maybe we can start in the fall when it cools off a little.
Jess has a bachelor party, so in the evening Dad, Jake and I went to dinner for my birthday dinner - I was really proud of my little guy because he is starting to be able to handle restaurants again! Hopefully this keeps up! :)

Today we got to meet some friends of ours newest addition!
Breele is an ADORABLE baby girl - I tried to steal her, but Jess put his foot down.
She was sleeping most of our visit - while I snuggled her of course, but I did snap this one photo of Breele in her Daddy's arms.

Got my new phone and it's glitchy.
In fact, it's messed up.
ARGH!
Craigslist did us wrong.... I can't complain too much though because I have bought more than my fair share of good deals off of it. This just comes with the territory sometimes.
LUCKILY - I have wonderful friends who are shipping me a G1 to use - YAY! Love you Nick and Wendy! So, the phone debacle will soon end (hopefully). Now, I am going to start breaking Jake of the cell phone habit. It really has gotten a bit out of control!

Today is my birthday!
Typically, I LOVE my birthday, I prefer to celebrate it for at least a week.
This year is most definitely different. I'm not sure exactly why, a combination of things I suppose, none of which I can fix. None the less, this year has flown by, but at the same time seems like it has been about 4 years all wrapped up into one.
So many things have changed in my life in the last year, but I guess that is just the way life goes...
The most obvious change can be seen in Jake...
Well... and the few lbs I have gained in that last year...

Talk about salt to a wound... Did you all hear the news?!
There a new iPhone 4 coming out!?!?
Too bad we still have 6 months on our contract with another carrier, but I am SERIOUSLY excited about the new iPhone.
I know there are lot of people out there who love the droids, but other than the fact that the new iPhone is seriously amazing looking, I need one because I WORK AT APPLE! I look like a total doofus with my blackberry at the office. Imagine the funny looks I am getting with the Nokia.
Anyways, on a less technological front... Jake has all of a sudden starting picking up on the sign language we have been half heartedly trying to teach him.
Currently he knows "more" and "eat" (although he often uses more in place of eat, but we're working on it) and we are teaching him "finished" and "thank you".
I'm trying to decide what to do next.
Any ideas from Mom's who have taught their kiddos to sign?

This morning was COMPLETELY lazy... just what we needed!
Since my blackberry has DIED (Sad, I know), my Dad was sweet enough to send me this little jewel to use until I can get a new phone.
(Drumroll please...)
I know... you can be jealous.
Thanks again Dad!
