		<title>Preston Jean Bouasri</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
This is only 8 weeks late, but I figure better late than never, right?  I don&#8217;t want Preston thinking we forgot about her.  Our baby girl, Preston Jean, was born on February 19 weighing in at 6 lbs. 15 oz, and was 20.5 inches long.  
She made quite the dramatic entrance into [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christmastime</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, this post is many weeks late, but what can I say?  I&#8217;m busy being pregnant and lazy.  

Allen at our ward Christmas party with Santa.  I thought he would be more wary of Santa, but he did fine.  Probably because he saw there were gifts involved.

Vigorously decorating his Christmas cookies. [...]]]></description>

		<title>SNOW!!!</title>

		<title>Summer catch-up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, we haven&#8217;t taken the time to post anything this summer because we were far too busy enjoying it.  It was the best Alaskan summer we have ever experienced.  The weather was perfect most days, which is very unusual for Alaska, so we took advantage of it and spent most days outside just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Allen&#8217;s First REAL Haircut</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was a sad day.  Allen has had long hair since the day he was born, so I decided it was time to try something new.  He has had 5 or 6 trims so far, but this time we took the clippers to it and it is all gone.  I was a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trip to the Zoo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I took Allen to the zoo for the first time last week.  It was a great day to go&#8211;nice and sunny, and all the animals were out and about.  Allen loved looking at all the animals and birds (he is a HUGE fan of birds!).

		<title>Easter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Allen had a great Easter weekend.  We dyed eggs with my family on Saturday, then had an egg hunt with the grandkids on Sunday after church.  Allen wasn&#8217;t exactly sure what was going on, but he definitely wanted in on the action once he saw candy was available.
 
Allen helped dye the eggs&#8230;.

		<title>Food Storage Made Easy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been on a food storage kick the last few months and was lucky enough to find a great website that sends out bi-weekly &#8220;babysteps&#8221; checklists throughout the whole year.  It is great because you get one every two weeks and work on just that checklist, so you don&#8217;t get too overwhelmed with [...]]]></description>
