This One's For You Narissa Kikolaus...

No, I'm not an egotistical person.  One of my best friends asked for a picture of my face and so I'm honoring her request.  I dedicate this picture to Karissa (a.k.a. Narissa Kikolaus, Special K).  I love you!

Quote of the Day

Last night as Greg and I were driving to go pick of Cafe Rio we almost got in 3 wrecks!  (Greg wouldn't never admit that.  He says he was in total control the entire time.)  One happened in a round-about by our house.  We were going through it and a dumb girl assumed we were exiting the circle when in reality we were not.  She slammed on her brakes and I screamed.  Accident avoided.

The next one happened when we were approaching an intersection probably going between 45-50 mph.  The car next to us was doing the same thing.  Well, the light turned yellow, but we both kept going because we had plenty of time to make it.  Another dumb girl decided that yellow meant she can automatically turn left even if two cars are approaching her very fast.  Once again, she slammed on her brakes and I screamed.  Accident avoided.

The last one happened at Cafe Rio.  Greg dropped me off to go pick up our order while he went to the bank.  A car was just sitting on the side in the parking lot the whole time we were there.  After I got out, Greg started to go around the "parked" car.  Well, right when he was passing him the car suddenly decided it was ready to leave.  Instead of moving forward slowly it pulled out right in front of him!  This time both of them slammed on the brakes, and Greg laid down the horn for a while while I screamed in my head because I was around a lot of people.  Accident avoided.

On the way home we were talking about how there are so many ridiculous drivers, especially in Utah!  This is where the quote of the day comes in.  Greg turns to me and says, "I am going to become some politician man, so I can make lots of laws against crappy drivers here.  Then I will arrest all of the stupid ones!"  Sure Greg.  Good luck with that one!

4 Months

Ellie is going to be 4 months old on Saturday! I can't believe 4 months have already passed. She is mostly a very fun, happy baby. However, today was not one of those days. She has not been sleeping very well anymore which is a major bummer. She is not a good napper and rarely ever sleeps longer than an hour. I have to put her down at the right time or else it is a huge struggle to get her to fall asleep. Today I put her down for her last nap of the day, but she woke up after only 30 minutes. I knew she wasn't ready to get up, but she wouldn't go back to sleep. So, I got her up and let her hang out for about 10 minutes before I tried to put her back to sleep. Needless to say, after an hour of full out screaming and me trying every trick I knew, she finally fell asleep in my arms. I almost lost it right before she gave in and went to sleep. Why is it so hard for her to nap? Any suggestions for me? I'm dying for help!!

Well, here are some pictures from the past couple of weeks...

My little pink gangsta. She looks intimidating huh?

This is Ellie and her boyfriend, Bryce. He lives two doors down from us. He has a twin sister too! He was putting the moves on her by trying to put his arm around her. She just looks confused. :)

I love this picture! She looks constipated, but it was taken right before she started crying. She has a different constipated look. :)
