I downloaded a neat program, called Legacy 5.0 and I started an online family tree! This software, when used with the Worldconnect database on http://www.rootsweb.com, it's a neat way to show and gather information!
I've had this interest for a while now, but finally decided to really do something with it. So I've been looking information up on the above website, plus the LDS database at http://www.ancestorhunt.com/mormon_church_records.htm
If you know any dates, such as birth, death, or marriage, or can fill in any blanks such as middle names or surnames, I'd love an email with the info!

What Nolan Can Do
Since my big boy is almost a year, I thought I'd get busy and actually type about him a little. Oh, and if you want to skip to the really important stuff, scroll down to the next entry, and you can see his 1 year old picture.
When you are almost one, you are very durable. Bouncing off of objects doesn't seem to phase you much, and at this point, I've become convinced that diapers are there specifically as a cushion for when you plop down on your rear every 3 seconds or so.
Nolan has also learned the art of the "sympathy cry" You know...the owwie doesn't hurt unless you have an audience thing? He'll fall over and whack his head on something, and unless it's a BIG whack, he usually doesn't really complain much...until he notices that I noticed his little accident. Then the little bottom lip pokes out and he starts this sad little ooooo-oooooooo cry. It's really very pathetic. And he knows it.
Nolan knows "NO". Just this morning, I asked him "Nolan, what does NO mean?" and he said, "Why Mommie, NO means to see just exactly how much you'll let me get away with. Test the waters. Push the envelope. Ride the cutting edge. Push the button."
Especially the "push the button" part. He can operate the receiver we have for the entertainment center. Pushing the button makes all sorts of neat sound effects. Saying NO means "Push the button as many times as you can before the parental unit carries you off or has a stroke, whichever comes first. More points if you can make one parent have a stroke while the other grabs you."
Nolan can walk, to a degree. He does pretty good, but then gets tired of it. Because he can crawl so much faster, you know.
