Flippin’ and a Floppin’
Hey there.
Well, Jade is getting bigger everyday. She’s probably 10lbs now! I think she puts on an ounce everytime she eats a spoonful of rice cereal. There’s a new wrinkle every hour… a new layer of fat every few minutes.
Lucky for her it all just makes her that much more cute! All is quite well in Jade land. She’s still following the Five Ways of Baby religiously. (Eat, Sleep, Gurgle, Poop, Spit-Up)…
Mom is doing well too. She’s tired of course… but she seems to reenergize pretty quickly on the weekend when I take over the nightshift, or one of the grandmas graciously (and excitedly) offers to take over at night. Jade usually sleeps pretty well through the night. Feeds once around 12 or 1 and again at 5 or 6… so really it’s not too bad but definitely takes its’ toll. One thing I’ve found out in the first few months is that I have a hard time getting back to sleep once I wake up for a feeding. I think I’m slowly getting better… but sometimes I just go to my computer and play a game… seems to put me to sleep. Probably a better idea would be to grab a book.
I’ve uploaded a few more pictures. Jade and Mom and Grandma Schubart went to Butchart gardens. It’s their 100th anniversary!
See you!

“Dat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-datDat-dat
Jade went to the doctor this week and got weighed and stuff.. right? I told you that already I think. Anyway the doctor mentioned that she could start eating solid (relatively) food when she was 4-6months. So what did we do? Theresa went out and bought some Rice Cereal that night!
The Grandmas thought we were crazy, feeding poor little Jade who’s only 1 month “corrected age” this cereal. But darn it the Doc said 4 months “real age”… and that’s what she is! So, Thursday morning Tree gave it a shot and lo-and-behold Jade gobbled it down!
So now we have a real piglet on our hands. She needs her big breakfast in the morning now. It’s not quite bacon and eggs but it’s getting closer!
She gets a whole tablespoon… you can see the carnage in the new pictures.
Other than that… the only news to report is that the cat likes Jades little playhouse. Jade doesn’t even know it exists and here’s the cat trying to get her swats in before Jade knows any better. She won’t be so eager once Jade can latch onto her tail.
Seeya!

Choices
OK.
So which would you pick?
This for a cool $12 million Canadian on Point Grey in Vancouver?
Or your own town for a reasonable $7 million!
In other news. Various sites are reporting on a study put out by Colorad State University that shows that the cost of Wind generated power has finally hit the 1c/kwh mark. The Collegian is reporting on the insteresting program CSU has provided its’ students to “buy” wind power if they choose for their time at the College.
A telling stat.
The US could produce 95% of it’s electrical needs through wind power by using only 3% of its current agriculture land for wind farms.
