RC Willey Adventures

Yesterday we decided we'd get a jump start on our tax return and purchase some new living room furniture. A few days before we put some money down on a sofa/chair/ottoman set with the intent of picking them up on Saturday if we were unable to find something else we liked from RC Willey's sidewalk sale. Well, we did find some furniture we liked at a significantly lower price so we took the on sale stuff instead. We brought it home, took the old stuff out and started bringing the new stuff in. We got the chair in (as seen below with Mariah chilling, drinking her bottle) and started bringing the sofa down when we discovered that it was going to be a tight little fit to get it inside our door. Long story short, four hours and two dozen profanities later we concluded that the sofa was not going to fit into our apartment. We then loaded all four pieces of furniture back onto the trailer and dropped the old ones off at the D.I. and brought the new ones back to the store. Anyway, the day ended with the chair back inside our apartment and a matching love seat and ottoman on order. I think it will be a while until we buy some more furniture for our apartment, or it could be today. We'll see.Here is Mariah helping mom empty the dishwasher.

Growing girl

Mariah is ten months old now and at the most fun age yet. She makes me laugh all the time with her constant babbling. Her newest sounds are theta and zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Mariah loves to dance to music. She has been dancing with her legs for a while now, but today she added her shoulders to the mix. Mariah's favorite show is The Backyardigans. She laughs her face of every time it comes on. And, as you can see in the picture above, she has two teeth! However, even with her new teeth, she still doesn't see the need to add new foods. I guess I'll just have to be patient.
