just because i have time

I don't have much to report. We're still buying things that we've already bought once, and trying to get the best deal since we're generally just taking the payout for insurance and rebuying things ourselves. At this point, it's just an annoyance.

Iowa State won last night! I didn't go to the game, but Travis had a good time. The tailgating was not so fun for me because I didn't realize how un-kid-friendly it would be, and it was hot and loud and hard to socialize. Hopefully next week will be better.

Emily tried to stand on her own today. She likes to stand up next to me when I'm sitting on the floor, and i'll hold her while she stands and hugs me. Well, today I let go, and she stood for a second, and thought that was pretty cool! She can cruise around furniture now, but still thinks crawling is a pretty nice way to get from place to place, and she doesn't have much interest in walking if I am holding her up by her hands. No biggie - she'll get to it when she gets to it. She likes to laugh if she hears laughter, even if she's not sure what's funny she'll laugh along with us! We heard cuckooburras (sp?) on the radio, and they really do sound like they're laughing, so she giggled along in the backseat, too. What a fun girl.

And a beauty, too! I finally updated her pictures, so, enjoy! Have a great weekend, everyone.
