Computer fixed!

I am happy to report that the amazing Ryan (with the help of some people from Dell over the phone) was able to fix our computer. We are both very glad to be back online from home! So here is what has been going on:

Ryan has started up his farm stand - here he is with his nice stand. Our nice neighbors let us put it on their lawn which is right on route 1a. He has been having fun with it and we have had people stop by every day.
Last week, Kate and I took a canning class from the local cooperative extension. We have canned lots of jam before, but now we know how to use a pressure canner as well. It was a late night for us, but it was nice to feel safe about canning lower acid foods. Also, Happy Birthday Kate!
Lizzie is doing very well these days - here we are reading. She has started reaching for the book when we are reading and definitely looking at the pictures. She is full of talk these days - and giggles and raspberries. She has continued to do fairly well with the sleeping - but doesn't do a lot of long napping during the day. She has been reaching for our faces and likes putting her fingers in my mouth for me to fake chew on and playing with Ryan's winter beard (which he started a little early this year, I think). She also seems to be getting bored in the car - I am hoping to find some good entertainment for her in the back seat.
The Doctor gave us the OK for a little johnny jumpup - Lizzie doesn't quite understand the jump part, but does seem to like being in it for short stints (look at those cute legs!). Another thing about Lizzie these days is that she puts her mouth on everything! Our house feels like it is covered in Lizzie spit :)

Now I think we are caught up from the last few weeks :)
