"Solid" Food

Tonight was Ellie's first venture into solid foods! We put her in her new portable high chair and fed her rice cereal! Don't worry, we got pics :) She did relatively well considering...
There were definitely funny faces, and she didn't get much of it to stay in her mouth, but she did well with the chair and with the spoon! We are so proud of our little munchkin. We will try again a little each day until she takes more, and we look forward to trying veggies next!
Love to all~
Ash, John, and Ellie

October update

Hi all. I know it has been a while since we updated, so here is a quick update:
John has interviewed for a different position within Verizon, so we are praying he gets that. He should find out today, hopefully. His schedule would be a good deal better, and way better than his next one will be with the new shift bid.
Things are still trucking along for the other irons in the fire, so we are just waiting for God to move some mountains!
Ellie had her 4 mo. appt yesterday. She had to get 4 shots and drink some stuff, and she did relatively well. She is 12 lbs 1.5 oz, 24 inches, and growing well. She was fussy last night due to the shots, but she seemed to sleep fitfully, and was doing alright this morning.
I am still taking my class, and all is going well there. Things are good at work as well. Not much change on my part.
Life is pretty much just trucking along. Finances are hard, but when aren’t they? God is working mightily (as usual!) to move mountains, or show us ways to go over or around them. This week’s service at church was awesome! One of the best I have been to in ages! I suggest everyone check it out at churchofcelebration.com!
Well, enough for now I guess. I will try to be better about blogging so ya’ll know what is going on in our little world.

Love to all our friends and family!
