keep them doggies rollin'... rawhide
we just wanted to let everyone know that jacob has reached a new milestone. over the last couple nights, he has rolled from his back to his stomach. we'll come in his room when he wakes up to find him on his tummy. he's actually been getting close for the last couple months. many of you may know that he favors his left side. a lot. as soon as we put him in his crib when he's awake, he rolls to his left. sometimes on the floor, he'll roll left, but never has been able to get over his arm.
well, he did it last night. robyn came in this morning to find him on his tummy with his arm sticking out the slats of the crib. (we've ordered a mesh bumper pad in hopes of corralling his appendages.) but, we also wanted to see it happen for ourselves, in case our parents didn't tell us about the rolling fairies that come in the night to move your baby around his crib. this morning, he rolled all the way over loads of time. if we could somehow post a link to a movie clip (of course after we find a way to convert our videotape to a digital format), we'd show you all the rollover.
on another note, robyn and i placed an offer on a house this week. its in a great neighborhood and school zone. we're not sure if we'll be there long enough to reap the full benefit of the school zone, but the 'hood is awesome. the outside of the house isn't congruent with our dream home, but the inside is great. the floorplan is quite spacious. and we have a wetbar. not sure how we'll use it, considering..., but i'm sure we'll find a good use. robyn said a joke about a lime rickey would be good to insert here, but i'm at a loss. think of your own. oh, and did i mention they accepted the offer? you probably thought we were still waiting. we're not! we're set to close on dec 1, the last month of the lease for our current appartment. we're really excited. although broken up on occasion bythings like jacob and braves games, all we really talk about is what we'll be doing to decorate, organize, etc etc. can't wait.
well, that's all for now. i know its been awhile since i've published on this web...log...thing. so please get off my back! please!
just kidding. we love you all. well, most. some we just like a lot!

Well, poor little rolling Jacob. He will not have a chance at a good sense of humor because his parents never make us laugh. Matt, about the rolling fairy. . . Yup. There is one. But they're supposed to keep the kid's arm INSIDE the crib. Also, he/she gave Jacob lessons. But did he/she leave money?
We love the posts. We're excited about the house. Maybe you could shift the focus of your new camera and send us some pics of the house.
We love you all. Have a great week.
What?! Is there a conspiracy going on? I'll need more details on location! Congratulations!
Great report Matt.... loved the baby and house update... keep them coming (please include pictures) The house is great and we are very excited for ya'll. I'm glad you have such a big great room.... more room for the boy to roam. Dad
shayleen, we're sorry we didn't mention it on sunday. there is no conspiracy. originally, we thought we'd keep it on the dl, but at the end of the day, i was busting at the seams, so i told a couple people.
its in the ward, in simpson. its one of the "slanty" that actually has new siding, so its no longer slanty.
actually, for anyone else who wants to take a look, the address is 4395 springfield, norcross, 30092. also, you can go to www.4395springfielddrive.com and see some pictures. (really! they put a website up. funny, huh? but cool.)
Thanks for responding to Shayleen's comment because we were dying too to find out where it was and everything!!! I just haven't had a chance to write and ask. That is so cool. Thanks for the website too, that is pretty cool. Its look like lots of fun and will be way better by any means than an apartment! WOW! And to still be in PTC ward, that is awesome! Too bad we weren't out there to do the appraisal for you :] and to help you move too since we got out of the last move too. But I'm sure since you'll be moving a bit closer to lots of ward members you can haggle them into helping, just get Elder's Quroum Insurance!!! just joking :] Best of luck, how exciting****
Love, Chelsea & John
You have a wet bar???!!!! I'm on my over right now for a kickin' lime rickey.
