Talk about nails on a chalk board

Not all baby noises are cute, and this sure isn't one of them! This video is Bennett's newest sound, and sadly it doesn't quite do it justice! With this one he reaches an impossibly high pitches. But I think you get the idea!

In other news, we finally found our apartment in Boise and our tentative moving date in August 14th. We're really looking forward to it. We have experienced a bit of a set back, Andrew and I were both donating plasma to help with costs, making an additional $100 a week. But yesterday, something happened while I was try to donate. I tried using my left arm, which the vein is hard to find so once they stuck the needle in, they kept adjusting the stupid thing! I felt like saying, "Give it up already! Let's just switch arms!" Eventually they did, but the blood was clotting in two places. Nothing bad happened to me, but basically I was just being bled. They consider that a blood donation, the amount that I lost while they were trying to fix things, so now I can't go back for 8 wks, meaning now its all up to Andrew. I hope things will work out so he can, sometimes he gets turned away for his high pulse. But I know something will work out since we know Boise is where the Lord wants us to be.

Sorry to hear about your experience at the plasma center. You are just brave to go do it.
We need to get together before you head to Boise.
