Well, Orianna is 5 months old today (crazy! I can't believe how time flies). She is babbling up a storm and frantically trying to keep up with her cousin Adalade who is 3 months older. Orianna doesn't crawl yet, but she certainly tries (especially when she watches her cousin doing it). She will tuck her legs completely under herself and push off with them, but she lacks the upper body strength so it just forces her face into the carpet. But, she is very close to overcoming the friction of the floor. It's been a real blessing to have a cousin so cloe in age to Orianna. She has been able to teach her things very quickly that we have been trying to teach her. I guess Orianna understands that Adalade is the same as her, and so she just assumes that she should be able to do everything her cousin does. It's super fun to watch.
Tamara is in a Play the Relief Society is doing, "The Ten Virgins." She plays one of the foolish-oiless virgins. It seems like an interesting play, but only the RS will ever see it, so I can't know for sure.
I have been working a lot on the house. We put up a fence, and built a kennel for the dog in the garage so that he can be outside all day. Jason helped me move oodles of dirt so that we could put the fence up. By the time we'd moved all the dirt, we both realized how artificially old we were (or out of shape... take your pick).
Recently we've done a few "Baby Theaters" where we will invite all of Tamara's family over (with all their small kids and babies) and we will watch a movie on the projector. It's nice because you don't have to feel bad about noisy babies, because everyone will take their turn eventually.
Other than that, I have just been working a bunch (surprise, surprise).
Well, we hope you are all well, happy, and progressing in all your efforts.
-Rob & Tamara

Hmm, sounds suspicious Rob. A Relief Society play that nobody can see but them, and your wife is playing an oiless virgin. Maybe you should get some priesthood men together and bust in to make sure it's all kosher.
How are things going with your mission shoebox website, I haven't heard about it in awhile. How long until you can sell it and retire rich?
I haven't done much with Mission ShoeBox in a while. I've been enjoying my wife & baby too much.
I did recently start back into it, but I haven't started running with it yet though.
I need to though, because the ideas are piling up, and time is slipping away. We have a queue of at least 5 really lucrative ideas that we just are waiting to do.
I am not old, I am the youngest of any of you :) But I do feel old.
