I have been delaying all the posting because our computers hard drive crashed and from now...I have absolutely NO PICTURES!!!  Am I freaking out, yes.  Was I relived to hear that they can get all the pictures off of the hard drive, yes.  But was I completely depressed when I found out that it would be for an extremely steep price...yes.  I know I should have had these backed up on an external hard drive and I know I am a complete idiot for of not doing it.  Yes, yes, yes!  I know.  But I just had to explain why there have been no posts as of late and why all the posts below don't have pictures for now.

Sheesh.  Just a wake up call for anyone show doesn't have their pictures backed up.  Don't do what I did.

I AM SO SO SO SO SO SORRY!!!! We had the same thing happen to us. My mom had taken my camera home from the hospital when I first had Peyton so she could e-mail a picture to my siblings. Well she thought she'd do a favor for us and clear our card. Unfortunately her computer crashed a few days later and we lost EVERYTHING from Peyton's first 2 weeks of life. She paid that steep price to recover her hard drive but unfortunately that group of pics was one of two things that they couldn't recover. I have since tried to make up for it by taking TONS of pics of Peyton :) and TRIPLE backing up everything. I have external hard drive, DVDs, and online computer back up. Am I nuts... probably... but I know all about that sick feeling that has now made me paranoid!

What a pain about your computer problems- I hope you can get the pictures back sometime... maybe someone you know is good with computers and could help for a lot cheaper? Pictures or not, I loved the updates. I can totally see Bennett trying to chew with his mouth closed and running up to grandparents that aren't his. :) Love it!
