Amy's new phone!

Did I mention I got a NEW phone?!



It's about time is all I can say. Faith is sitting on my lap as we speak, playing with and drooling all over the old one! I GLADLY handed it over - it hasn't worked right since the day I got it. For example, random alarms would go off in the middle of the night...nearly every night - it didn't matter if I set one or not, it would still go off. It also constantly changed my ringtones that I had set for people - I never knew who was calling just by listening.


Needless to say, I HATED that phone. It was the freebie phone from my cell company, so maybe I can't complain. Well, Faith loves it...which I'm sure will not last long because as soon as she can have something that she couldn't before, it is no longer exciting. She's not getting my new phone, that's for sure. Can I just say that I LOVE my new phone?! It's great! It's a Palm Centro - to keep me
organized.


It's got the keypad that's like a keyboard and I've started to text again :), and it's so sleek and stylish! I just love it. We were due for an upgrade - well, Justin's phone was, but since his was perfectly good, he graciously let me get the new phone ;)

I thought I used to be pretty good with technology, but since having my old phone, I think it has switched my brain in the other direction and I'm having to learn about all this "new stuff" again.

Either way, I sure am enjoying my new celluar device :)

Faith at Grandma's


Faith was...you guessed it...at Grandma's this weekend. It was my weekend to work and so Justin's parents happily took Faith for us. I know she has a lot of fun when she goes to their house because she's always pooped when she comes home :)

I worked Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday and we went up after my shift Monday to get her. We pulled into the driveway at the farm, and there was our little girl - peeking through the window of the house at mommy and daddy. Oh how my heart melts when I see her after not being with her for more than a a few days...or a few hours..or minutes :) Jerry and Kim have 2 dogs - 2 big golden retrievers who like to bark when visitors come. Faith now imitates them - a high pitched "ruff, ruff!" comes out whenever she sees a puppy now :)

We spent the night at the farm Monday night. Justin's brother, Jalen had a football game...which they unfortunatly lost, but it was still fun. The weather is still awesome out - if it wasn't for the mosquitos.

We headed home today, and on the way we stopped and looked at some homes in a little town just 13 miles outside of where we live now. We are not homeowners yet - but we are getting sooo anxious to have a home of our own - and it doesn't hurt to look! Jerry and Kim mentioned a new development and we went to look at it. We LOVED it. It's this little community of homes - lots of families - kids playing everywhere - beautiful houses. If we were to purchase or build a home in this area, Faith would be able to attend a much smaller school rather than the quite large school district in which we now live. Like I said...and as my husband reminds me...we were JUST LOOKING! But it doesn't hurt to look and see what it is we're looking for! We really did love it - small neighborhood - everyone waving as we drove through :) - cute little playground - and it is away from the "hustle and bustle" of a larger city. Awwh yes, I'm dreaming of my house even more now. Someday...soon, hopefully ;)
