Last weekend, Ella went to cousin Cole's 1st Birthday, and to Aunt Sarah's graduation party. I guess she's already a socialite. I only have a few pictures though.

Everybody wish Lara luck with her solo time. I know she'll do great.

I'll try to get some updated photos uploaded in the next day or so.

US_Windows_7_Category_Hero_2.jpg

Windows 7 is available for pre-order now. You can pick it up from Microsoft directly, or from Amazon and BestBuy.com. I picked up the $49 version from Amazon with free shipping.

Not a bad deal....

It went pretty smoothly, with one minor problem. After the upgrade, when trying to browse the web over the 3G connection, I would get the following error: "Could not activate cellular data network: You are not subscribed to a cellular data service".

I dropped the SIM back in my old Blackjack and the internet worked fine, so that wasn't the problem. Then I came along this post. It seems that ATT really wants you to be on the official "iPhone Data Plan" instead of their generic data service. Since I have no intention of having my account updated, likely increasing my rate, I went through the steps on that page to get back up and running. It's now working w/o any issues. Finally, copy & paste on a phone. It's sad to get excited about something so basic.

We've also had a couple showers and have gotten a ton of great stuff. I'll add to those pictures as I get more.

Over the weekend we went to a 2-day class at the hospital which was really helpful, and we finished up painting/cleaning the nursery. The family helped out tremendously with the painting, but we had a few spots to touch up. The bulk of the furniture should arrive Saturday and I'll post pictures once that's in place.

Exciting times......

We've got them setup at BabiesRus and Target. Conclusion, babies need a lot of stuff. :)

We took a lot of pictures at Grandfather and I uploaded them as usual to Flickr.

It was nice to have a relaxing weekend for a change, and the weather was absolutely perfect.

Unfortunately the trip was shorter than we originally planned, but we still had a good time. The weather was pretty rough, but didn't stop us from getting out. We've uploaded our pictures here.

One special note, I had the best meal I've had in months at Atlantic Fish Co. I'd highly recommend checking it out....

We were there with him, and I hope we were able to comfort him in his final moments. It's a sad day, and the house will be totally different without Maggie and Blue. We feel blessed they were in our lives.

This picture was taken last this morning around 2:15.
