A week from today...

..we will leave to see Chris! I am so excited. I think about ten million times during the day.

Okay, here is a concern I have. I am noticing that I am getting a lot of emails from friends/acquaintences who have had their emails hacked into. They are always the same, I open the email and it's just a random URL instead of a message. Is it just me or this this happening way more often than it used to happen? I mean, it is seriously almost everyday I get a new one. I generally get an apology soon after from the real email owner. How are their emails getting stolen? What should I do to prevent this? Mostly, I am hoping someone will find out and tell me as a comment because I am too lazy to look it up on my own.

Also, Jojo can pick up and eat Cheerios now and scoot backwards. What a hero.

Anna, I am getting those, too! From multiple people, probably two or three a day. But the scary thing is that I don't always get the "oops, sorry!" email from the real person, which worries me. Are people getting those emails from me, too? Scary.

I've also gotten those, but not as frequently.

Also, I thought Jojo was supposed to stay a newborn until we get to meet her.

Also, tell Chris we say hi. :)

I've gotten one of those emails. It's a virus that's going around. I'm not sure how to stop it or how to tell if your own email is sending things out... maybe change the password on your gmail? Since Google, Blogger, Picasa is all the same, maybe it's getting in that way? Luckily I heard about this and so wasn't shamwillied into opening anything.

I, too, have been receiving a bunch of those emails. I use a Mac, so I think I'm kind of immune from virus problems. If I don't receive a follow-up email from the person whose account it came from, I usually send them an email saying, "Hey, I think you may have a virus, just to let you know..."

PS - that is SO exciting that you get to see Chris soon. I am so proud of your family. Good times!

I get at least one of those a day. Are you going to see Chris at Ft. Benning? My bro and sis-in-law live there in Columbus. We are going there for Thanksgiving. Will you still be there?
