To get things started

In our continuing quest to become the Incredibles we have assumed our super blog identities. We hope you will enjoy keeping up to date with the Incredereggs. I think I have felt highly motived to get this blog up and running after a month in the works because we have been without phone service for two weeks. Our $8.00 a month service has proved to be exactly that. We tried Digis networks next but they don't get a signal in our area so we're going to bite the bullet and pay up for Comcast VoIP. If that fails then we'll really pay the piper and have Qwest install a traditional phone jack. We're holding out for our kitchen addition to do it all at once, but that might be kind of silly. We'll see. 

Dave's working like crazy with Chapman Richards and Primerica. We get to see him Monday and Saturday evenings, and a good couple of hours each morning and usually a meal together between 3 and 5 pm if we're lucky.  We're sharing a car this month to cut our expenses and so far it's working pretty well. We really do feel like Super Mom and Super Dad, having to be resourceful, communicative, and focusing on family schedules and goals more than when we're racing around in different directions.  

Isabel is now showing 4 top teeth, two bottom ones. She is sleeping well through the night as we're focusing on getting meals and bottles during the day at family meal times. I'm glad to be sleeping more after 9 months of pretty consistent sleep deprivation. 

Calla cut her hair a couple of weeks ago and now it's officially short. We miss her cute little bob. We had it professional cut on Friday, she cut it on Thursday and we had it cut again professionally the following Friday. We learned a lot about scissors. I didn't get upset, I was was nursing Isabel and I could hear Calla giggling in the bathroom. She really  had a good time. Nothing wrong with that.  

Hope you have a great Easter. We read in the scriptures a little bit about Jesus being the Lamb of God. You have to admit that symbolism is amazing and clearly teaches that God is a loving Father in Heaven. Unlike all of the manmade gods that require extremely difficult sacrifices, God himself made the offering here, and I don't doubt he felt the pain right along with the Savior as he witness a beloved son's slaying. I can't imagine the depth of his suffering which proves the depth of his love for me and you. I guess I'll carry on.
