Wooohooo! This is fun!  And you know the cool thing? I was having problems installing my Belkin router and accidentally pushed the reset button through and the customer service rep on the other line put me on hold for a bit, came back and told me they're sending me a replacement router for free! And after I got off the phone with her, I tried to hook up the one I had and I DID IT!! So now I'm gettin a free router! 
Oh, and I also got $40 in the mail because Sony Imagestation closed down and refunded anyone who got memberships. It is a good day!

Thanks Rosy! And I'll try to post more pics of Ava, but it's so hard when she sleeps most of the time!
I suppose I could try putting toothpics on her eyelids to keep them open... 
lol

She'll be awake more than you care for soon enough. Let her sleep and enjoy the break while you can.
I wouldn't count on having a extra router just yet. They might send you a Return Merchandise Authorization and a shipping label and have you send the old router back to them.
I'm glad you got it working, though. Wireless is cool. Now all you got to do is secure it so 15 other people don't try to log in on your router and bog your connection speeds down.

Tell me about it.
15 other people--or one teenager sequestered in her lair, downloading or uploading megabytes of god-knows-what.
Everything goes along just fine, and then it's like trying to push a wheelbarrow full of rocks uphill. I can always tell when school's out.
Still and all...wireless is a beautiful thing.
Best,
George

And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer

Yup, wireless is cool. Just wish my battery wasn't a piece of crap, lol. Anyway, I'm not worried about anyone leaching off of me, it's only a 400 foot range plus we're out in the country. But I'll call my phone company if I have to to have them secure it.
Oh, as for Ava, I've experienced the awakedness the past 4 days now. Fussy time sucks! What I meant about her sleeping is that is almost the only time I can get a decent picture of her, lol!
Here's an interesting one for ya, I think she thinks I'm weird or something...

Hi Ava!  Don't worry about her not smiling at you Mel, She will when she needs something from you like the keys to the car, money, ect!
Just kidding, she's just messing with you.

Correct me if I'm wrong cuz I'm not very good at this stuff, but Ava looks a lot like I imagine her brother might have at that age.

I didn't know you were wired Mel. Cut down on the caffeine and chocolate.

I don't have a lap top any more, but my desk top is wireless I love it. I have now moved into the den with Buddy. I don't have to stay in one place.
You will have so much more freedom with it Mel.

Linda- can you see me do it now?? LOL!
Brew- actually no, she doesn't look like her bro at this age, he was much more receptive and he'd smile at me ALL the time! Guess I'm partial, I know, I'm bad! 
George- who is that dude?? I was thinking she looked more along the lines of Larry from the 3 Stooges, lol. Now that I think about it, that's what I've got, isn't it? The 3 Stooges!!

Didn't you read that I pushed the paper clip through the reset button? I can't use the reset button at all now because there isn't one! I'd at least like another router as a backup just in case. Besides, it was a CS rep who told me to push it with a paper clip to reset it, it's not like I just felt like breaking it on purpose...
