Oven Bake Element and Time Travel

So our oven's bake element burned out in a bright, but short lived electical fire.  (Everything's fine.)  If you know Jenn, you know this is something of an issue.  So I ordered another one, only to discover that FedEx has discovered time travel.


That's right.  It left NJ at 12:20 AM on the 19th, and arrived at 11:58 PM on the 18th.  I hope the warping of space-time doesn't cause this bake element to burn out.  It was scheduled to arrive today, but because of the snow, it's delayed.  Or maybe it arrived before I ordered it?

(For those doubters that think it may just be the time zone, consider that the package would have to have traversed the 1000 miles in 38 minutes.  That's an average speed of 633 miles per hour!)

Mom and I dancing at Matt's wedding

Love you, Mom!

Yeah, Matt!


Jenn and Matt conspired to get Matt to Rochester for my 30th birthday! Woo-hoo! My, we've come a long way from playing Quake in the dorm room...

Up, up and away!


When he smells trouble, Benjamin's alter ego comes out...

Update

Our camera is on the fritz, that's why we are lacking photos! Here is a snapshot of what's new with me:

*since 11 months I have been working on 6 more teeth (4 molors and 2 canines)
*I now climb furniture. Mommy discovered this when she found me standing up in my rocking chair
*I have a "lovey"---it's a book. It calms me down to read it in my crib and I can often be found holding it in my sleep. Who needs soft things!?
*I am now sleeping 100% in my crib and no longer nurse to sleep--this is a huge accomplishment. I even reach for my crib when I'm tired.
*I love to laugh, chase mommy and daddy, read books (lots and lots of books), and eat!
*I love grapes, rice cakes, and popcorn.
*I say new words everyday--although I seem to like action words and not nouns! Again, 'dis (this), da (yes), all done, done. I love to point at what I want shouting 'dis, 'dis.
*I love my daddy and cry when he leaves for work.
*I love to dance, love music, love banging on things.
*I love being outside...I don't care if my feet are wet, ears are cold, or mommy is freezing!
*I love dogs--especially my friend, Rusty, next door.
