Flipping for my new Flip :)

My wonderful hubby got me a Flip video camera :) I had been doing some hinting that I really needed one, not just want, but NEEDED! Apparently he got the hint loud and clear, because when he surprised us with a visit last weekend he showed up with a gift! My very own 60 min. Ultra Flip Video!!!!

Needless to say, I am very excited! It is the size of an average point and shoot digital camera, so I can take it anywhere me and Andrew venture to! I can shoot video and load it to the blog, or anywhere else, in a matter of minutes! This means I can share videos with all of you, something I was not able to do previously - I could have figured out a way with the big camera - but who wants to do that! LOL!

I hope you enjoy this video, I shot it the first full day that I was using the Flip! I know it's not the most exciting of videos, but I had to share something :) Andrew's first tastes of a Kraft Single!!!!

10 Months Old :)

Andrew turned 10 Months old today! Only 2 short months until he is 1...can you believe it? I know that I cannot. It seems like only yesterday he was a newborn who just ate and slept. So much for those lazy days! Andrew is now crawling around the house like a crazy man! Everyday he gets faster and faster and his technique improves.

He is not only learning to crawl, but also pulling up to stand against furniture and people. He has always liked to stand as apposed to sitting or laying. Now he is able to crawl, sit up and then stand up if he wants to. Andrew especially like to use mommy as a support system. Daily he uses me to stand up, sit down, and climb all over - I guess I'm a playground these days!

Here are some pictures from our day as we not only celebrated Andrew's 10 month birthday, but also Zac's 26th Birthday :) We got to eat out at Max & Erma's and it was delicious! You can see that Andrew was especially excited about the free cookies that we got!!!

"These must be for me since I'm such a good boy!"
It took forever to get him to sit still for one smiley pic!
On the move!

The Birthday boys together
Zac and his birthday pie!!! YUMMY :)

"Thanks for looking at my pictures!"

I know it has been a while since the last post, but that is due to the fact that one week ago, Andrew and I moved back to Columbus, OH! So, with the organizing, the packers, movers, driving to OH, unloading, the movers again and now the unpacking - it has been a little chaotic. We are currently staying at my parents while I attempt to get our new apartment set up - we should be moving there to stay on Sunday :) We really like our new place (and hope that Zac likes it when he gets here to visit) and are excited to start our next segment back in OH if only for 6 or so months!

Something cool that did happen while I was unpacking; in a stack of boxes, sitting under on box - on top of another, was a map of Philadelphia. Neither one of us have ever seen it or even know how it got in the middle of a stack of boxes, but we think that it is a sign telling us that although Philly might seem scary, we will be OK there!
Here are some pictures of our last days in Arkansas
