choo-choo

These aren't exactly the photos of me that I want to share, but....Brandon learned how to be the choo-choo train (we're guessing at church?) recently. He had my mom "choo-choo"ing around the house while I was at the dentist on Monday, and then all 3 of us once I got home. Too cute!

new slideshow...will it work?

bummer

I can't believe it. Olivia went to grab my ring this afternoon (she likes sparkly things) and as I said "diamond" I realized it wasn't there. It came out of its setting. Lord only knows when. I think it was there when I picked it up this morning, since the prongs are quite sharp. And when I changed her diaper after getting home from Trader Joes (right before when I noticed it was gone) I think it was gone since my ring caught on the changing pad (unusual).

Why did this happen now? We're trying to sell the house, get our finances in shape, & hopefully buy a new (to us) house in the near future. And of course the little diamonds in my wedding band & engagement ring are chipped, so it's not like I want to just replace the diamond.

Ugh.
