After several months of researching and debating, Dave and I have finally chosen the cell phone provider, plan and phones for our family. We've been off-contract with Sprint for ... oh, three or so years. And recently had one or two occurrences that made us think that we each need our own cell phone rather than sharing one between us. We'll be switching to AT&T. I know I hear faint cheers from the many, many people in our families that now won't have to use their minutes to call us, but I'm sure the excitement will be short-lived as everyone remembers our well-deserved reputation for never, ever, ever having our cell phone on us. (Aside: We recently found our cell phone again and the only missed call we had was from my brother ... BEFORE THANKSGIVING!) We'll get the phones soon and one of our numbers will be the same. The other person will have a new number. Once we figure out who has what, I'll send out an e-mail.
As an added bonus, while he was doing all his research, Dave discovered that we could upgrade our cable/phone/Internet package and still pay the same price we've been paying each month. So we now have free long distance from our home phone. As well as voice mail that we don't know how to access yet. Fun.
PS-I went to the doctor today. Baby's heartbeat thumping away at 150 bpm. My belly measures a bit big, but not enough to worry about. And I gained three pounds between this visit and the last so I didn't get fussed at for not putting on weight! Go me!

FYI
Um, yeah, we've lost our cell phone (again). It doesn't matter much since we rarely get calls on it, but just in case you were trying to get in touch with that number. It should turn up in a couple of weeks if history is any indication.

Still alive
Things have been happening ... they just haven't been very interesting things.
1) We found our cell phone. We are now back in the land of the semi-technologically mobile. Give us a call!
2) Echo's been sick. Gross, gross stuff. She's back on the special food from the vet. The one that spoiled her before. The puppy crack. After being on that stuff for four days in January, as of mid-April she still hates to eat her dry food and comes running whenever I use the can opener. Hoping, whining, jumping to see ... and then grunting her disappointment when she realizes nothing's going into her bowl. I don't know if we'll ever get her back to dry food. We may have to start mixing it with canned.
3) We took our down comforter to the cleaners and put our quilt back on the bed. My own personal marker of the First Day of Spring.
4) We turned off the heat and (several weeks later) turned on the air conditioning.
5) We filled in many of the holes in our lawn so you have less danger of breaking your ankle when you come visit.
6) Then we seeded and fertilized the lawn. We've decided to try to grow only one kind of grass (fescue).
7) We figured out a plan for our garden areas ... somewhat. It changes. Often.
8) The Cutco sales rep visited my house and sharpened all my Cutco knives. All four of them. (Thanks, Grandma!) If any future posts mention a visit to the emergency room for stitches, you'll know why.
9) We finally got propane for our grill. This actually is a Big Thing (for me). I've been wanting to be able to grill out for at least a month, but we've never just gone and bought a tank. Now we've got one and have christened the grill. We had Steve and Gianna over for burgers, hot dogs and corn on the cob. They brought cheesecake and key lime pie from Litton's. YUMMY! I forgot to take pictures, though.
10) So, here's a recent picture of the Echo pup looking cute. And a little odd.

Lost: One Phone
If anyone has left a message for Dave and/or me on our cell phone in the last, oh ..., four weeks, we did not receive the message.
Yes, we've lost our cell phone again.
We still have all three home phones, though. Give us a call on one of those!
