Baby visit and dilemma

It has been almost a week since we had a visit from baby Alexis Schauers, but belated or not here are some pictures of our adorable new cousin/niece.




Congratulations Aaron and Amy! We wish you well in the next few weeks.

I don't know how many of you have had a demo from a Rainbow vacuum salesperson, but for me it was alomst anguish NOT to buy one after seeing what a great product it was and how horrifyingly dirty my carpet is. But Jared is strong and said no. While I was thinking of ways to finance the 2200 dollar cleaning device, he was thinking of all the great 4-wheelers he could get for the same price. But we will get neither, I just paid tuition. At the very least it spurred Jared to action calling a carpet cleaner.

Fiora was offered a position on Team Gym this week, it is a huge commitment (money wise and time wise with actual competitive meets and uniforms) but also a great opportunity for Fiora to develop her gymnastics skills. Jared and I are both stuggling as to whether we should have Fiora do it. We welcome advice/opinions on the matter. Fiora had to try out for a spot, and she came down with a stomach bug the day she was to demonstrate her skills, so I was very impressed with her willingness to do her tricks (and how great she did!) although she was under the weather. She has a gymnastics recital the evening of August 19th if you want to come see her in action.

Gymnastics is Fiora's "thing" -- especially if she is willing to do it when she is not feeling so great.
Rainbows are NOT that great. That mucky water is gross to deal with and the canister is troublesome to pull around. Tuition is a way better investment...love you!

Way to hold strong on that vacuum! But next time a 4-wheeler salesman comes by and Jared is raring to go, you just go ahead and say no to that too. :)
