I just wanted to post a quick update, and brag on Abriella's smarts ;)...
She's is such a smart little girl, heh. She's 19 months old now. She can sing the entire ABC song, hehe. And she can count... to 14!!
It was amazing to watch the other day. We were watching Sesame Street and they were counting to 10. So they finished counting to 10, and out of the blue Abriella says, "11 12 13 14". 11 and 12 were clear. the 'thir' part was mumbled but she knows how to say 'teen', heh. Anyhow it was pretty cool that the knew past 10...somehow! We've been teaching her to count to 20 now.
She's such a well-behaved and polite child too. And helpful! Tonight she not only ate most of her dinner, but she was kind enough to feed me mine too :). After eating my hotdogs I had some salad left, so she came over and grabbed my fork and meticulously forked each little piece of salad one piece at a time and put it into my mouth for me, hehe, for like 10 minutes until all my salad was gone. She's always offering to share her food or toys and stuff, it's great.
And she's learning to spell/read now too. She can recognize CAT and DOG, and with coaching can spell them (still working on that part a bit).
So anyhow, I am a very proud father of her...

Other minor news... I'm going to Boston for SCRUM certification training! I've never been East of Las Vegas, so this might be kind of exciting.
Amanda says, "I don't want you to be so far away!" I told her, "Hey, it's only 5 miles from Medford (where we live)...well.... Medford, Massachusetts, that is (wrong state, we're in Oregon, hehe)." She didn't find it funny, heh.
It's a great opportunity I think for MF to send me and Tony and Greg there for the training, so I'm excited to go for that.
