Just a quick post as an excuse to continue to use my new computer, and to record some of the little tidbits of late that I want to place in my virtual memory.

1) My new computer, a 17″ MacBook Pro, finally arrived this week! It’s been a blast so far, but will continue to be alot of work to make this my one personal computer. I’m so anal. I want all my pics, videos, music, contacs, email, rss, calendar, etc. etc. all on this one computer. Then I’ll have to find a way to keep it strapped to me all the time.

2) A childhood friend’s precious little boy passed away. She and her husband had a premature (6 mos) baby early this past February, and they found he had a rare birth defect. He was doing as well as a baby born under 2 lbs could do, but passed away due to a bacterial infection earlier this week. I can’t even explain how my heart goes out to them. I never would have understood their pain until I had kids myself. I just don’t know how you go on after something like that. I can only pray that they have a complication-free pregnancy the next time around and that they are blessed with as many happy and healthy children as they desire. Raef is an angel…

3) Joshua continues to be the cutest little 2 year old. He is still loving his little Matchbox cars, but he’s also been very into his Elmo book (SO big!) and reading that and other books at night with Daddy at bedtime. He’s also been wanting us to put one of his soccabols up on his tee-pee, then he says “ready, set, dough!!!” and knocks it off the top of the tee-pee. I tried to catch it on video today, but he just wanted to peeky at the camcorder and I couldn’t get him to do the whole action again. But it is so cute!

That’s all I can fit in tonight. Addy just cried and I had to go feed her so I have about 30 minutes less to write than I thought I would. More later, with Addy highlights and more!
