Introducing ...

Wow, it's been awhile! I have so much to update on, so much I could potentially talk about, however I simply want to do one thing. Introduce my new, beautiful nephew to the world!

Here are a couple of pictures that I took ...

(There is a picture just like that of big brother Drew on Daddy's hand, only colored differently ... I will post that for comparison when I get it scanned in)

Proud big brother giving kisses on Baptism day:

Those are just a few of the cutie patootie ... I have a ton more I can post, but the internet is running a little slow - and I don't have the patience to wait and post more!

Hopefully, more exciting updates and pictures coming soon!

iPod Touch: Update!

A little over a month ago, I blogged that I was jealous of my Dad's iPod Touch. Well, no need to be jealous anymore ... I got one for Christmas!!! Even though I think my Mom had ulterior motives in getting me one ... she did say that now I can learn everything on it, and show Dad how to use his ... nonetheless, I have one!!

I've had it for a whole 5 days, and love it already. Maybe next time, I will be blogging from it!!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, and have a happy and safe New Year!

iTouch.

Unfortunately, it is not me who recently received one. My Father did. I am extremely jealous, and as I sit here playing with it, I think to myself ... "When in the world am I going to have time to teach him how to use this dang thing?" Because clearly he won't be able to figure it out. Not only that, but I have a feeling his arthritic hands will be "touching" numerous buttons at once. That can only equal frustration for him and more work for me. Gotta love him! And maybe he'll love me enough to switch his iTouch with my regular iPod Video? Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?? (He may just have to switch when he figures out how many Clay Aiken tunes I have put on his new iTouch! hehe)

I would love to run out and buy one, however for a couple of reasons I can't.

1. Money does not grow on trees.
2. I hear the iPhone is being "unlocked" and available to third parties in February 2008 - so why buy the iTouch now when I can have the iPhone in a few months??

Oh who am I kidding. I would love to have both!! On my way to google the nearest Apple retailer ...

Lions and Tigers and ... Leopard?

It finally came. FedEx dropped it off today. This is exciting, people!


I am the proud new owner of Apple's latest operating system, Leopard! I have had about 5 minutes to explore - and I already love it. There's nothing like Apple. Nothing. Now if I could just get that iPhone ...

Whipped and Fluffy.

My new favorite candy. It's what gets me through those long hours of studying ... with 45% less fat! I recommend eating all of the outside chocolate off first, and then eating the fluffy inside all by itself. Heaven in a candy wrapper.
