Elijah rolled over for the first time yesterday 3/2/2010 @ 5:50pm.
After the first roll I grabbed the camera and began taping, and this is what we got.
Oh yeah, if you listen very carefully you hear why Chad and I are laughing.

Suzie ready for a run!

Ha Ha Ha, Suzie is such a little trooper!! I got this funny little out fit only because it was funny and on clearence.

Okay she is over it and refuses to move from the sitting position. I guess the fun is over. She did get a cookie for giving me such a good laugh.

Saying Good-Bye to the Tri

All good things must come to an end, so they say. I had a wonderful time spending Christmas with the Rittenberg family. It was a week vacation i had been dreaming about since October when we got our early Christmas gift from my dad (air fare to the Tri-cities for CHRISTMAS). Thank you Dad, thank you!!!

I have so many wonderful memories of Christmas in the tri, but this one topped all. The whole Rittenberg clan was in attendance.

Mom and Dad's crusie on the Sapphire Princess

So, Chad and I went to the Port of LA around 2:00 pm to see off Mom and Dad on their big adventure (they were to board the ship by 3:00 at the latest).

Isn't our luck that their bus driver got lost and didn't even arrive to the port until 3:40pm.

No worries they held the ship for the 100 passengers with Triple A that were running a little late due to Driver confusion.

This is Chad waiting for Mom and Dad at 3:00

Here is Chad still waiting at 3:30
OH, my gosh....... Mom and Dad's bus finally shows up, but gets lost in the parking lot on where to unload the passengers.
Finally we catch up with them for about 5 minutes before they are rushed onto the ship that has been waiting 40 minutes for them to arrive.
Sadly it was a very short visit, but I'll take every moment I can to see my family.

Dad rushing off with baggage

What a nice boat (it's HUGE)

Have a great trip Mom and Dad can't wait to hear all about it when you get back!!

Love You!!!
