It's Back

We've been without a computer for a couple weeks which is miserable. Fortunately I have one at work to help satisfy the electronic addiction we all seem to be suffering these days. Shalaine on the other hand had to quit blogging cold turkey which was pretty tough. Sometimes I would come home from work to find her in the fetal position on the floor shaking. Lying next to her would be a cereal box that she had fashioned into a computer monitor, but alas she would not be able to pull up anything.blogspot.com. Oddly, the only screen she could get was the Honey Bunches of Oats home page. Anyway, after getting our power supply replaced, the computer has returned home. Here are a couple videos. We spent last weekend in Orange County so the Great-Grandma's could visit with Axel. We hung out with Brooke and Dave Friday night, played a little password, talked diapers, teething, and tried to distinguish who the babies resembled most. Saturday we went to South Coast to look at expensive stuff that's not worth the money. However, the Merry-Go-Round only cost a buck so we purchased a ticket and took Axel on his first ride. Grabbed lunch at Lawreys, for which we were scolded by Grandma Everson, as the Prime Rib Sandwhich at R&D's is 10 times better, allegedly. For some reason I usually prefer to eat whatever product comes as a result of the R&D, but I hear this place is worth a try so next time we're down we'll give it a shot. Saturday night Grandma Everson took over as baby sitter and we went and saw Juno with Jon and Louann. Refer to Dro's blog for more details on the night, and a movie review. I give it four stars though. Good flick. It's good to be back in the blogosphere. I know I'm logged in under Shalaine's account, but this is Cort.



Here's some exciting footage from Grandma Green's. We had some tasty chicken and mashed potato's, watched some Lakers, BYU Volleyball, and had a good visit.



Till next time. Blog be with you.

Oh to not BLOG! I feel for you Maines. Glad to hear you are back....although the fetal position is something I am familiar with due to having 4 kids and being a girls' basketball coach. It's actually quite relaxing at times.

Nice photos of Axel. Keep em coming. They satisfy Lou Ann's baby itch. If we get to 5 kids, both the baby and I will be in the fetal position for the next 9 months.

I can't believe that on multiple occasions each day you get to go into that room and see that little guy wake up! What a delight! Cherish every moment. Thanks for the little rays of sunshine...since there hasn't been much up here in the frozen north. We love you guys...
