My Nile

Some funny-ness for your day.




That's Greg in the background providing the beat. Whenever he does it Nile stops whatever he's doing and starts grooving immediately. We call it grooving because I don't think it technically qualifies as dancing but he's almost always grooving. That kid is a Groove Machine!

On another note, I'm finally finished with my training for my new job at Ancestry.com, doing tech support. It's a pretty decent job and it pays great. I'm just glad I'm only doing part time. I think full time would get a bit tedious. I've enjoyed it so far and I really enjoy the people I work closely with so all in all I'd say I've lucked out in yet another job.

So this saturday, we decided to go to Hogle Zoo. We haven't been in a while and we figured Nile's finally at an age where he might appreciate it a little more than before. We had a really good time and following are some shots from the trip including some from Nile driving.
Nile really liked watching the monkeys running back and forth on the vines, especially the little spider monkeys. He was laughing and grunting and growling. It was too funny.
Tuckered already?Getting ready to head home.Clearly Nile thinks he has better taste in music than us. He was getting pretty handy turning to new stations and then cranking the volume. This kid is just TOO much! I can't even explain how glad I am to be done with training so I'm back with him all afternoon and evening. It's nice to get out and be a regular person again but I love coming home to hear him beat feet (or in this case, knees since he's still not walking) around the living room to come see me walk in. The biggest joy of my day is seeing the grin on his face when he points to me and looks at Greg as if to say "Ha! She did come home!"
