day of reckoning

Many years ago, I bought a sports car with the notion that I would sell it when I had children. Although I thought children would enter my life sooner than now, I am still having a bit of remorse to move to a more practical car. Yesterday we bought our city/commuter/family car...so today the sports car will be sold. I will usher in this new chapter of my life in my new Honda Element.

On a side note, Christmas was wonderful with all of our family. We couldn't be more blessed. I will be posting pictures soon, stay tuned.

as i promised

So Champ is getting big. Yesterday we met with his teacher for school. I feel very blessed. Champ was extremely comfortable in her arms and the room seemed so organized and in control. That really amazed me considering there are 16 infants under the age of 9 months. He will start attending school after the first of the year. I will take pictures of his first day.

I also mentioned that Jeff and I went to San Fran. Jeff's best man Brian finally married his long time girlfriend Sarah. The wedding was small as many had to travel cross country to attend. That made it very intimate. The were married outdoors on a jetty into the Bay on the northern side of San Francisco. The backdrop to the wedding was the Golden Gate bridge. The wedding was breath taking. Our entire trip we had amazing weather, clear blue skies with chilly temperatures. We visited with friends, toured the MOMA of SF and ate dim sum in China Town. It was a great trip. All of this was possible thanks to MawMaw and PawPaw who took great care of Champ. They all seemed to enjoy the weekend as much as Jeff and I.

I have been enjoying my last few quiet days at home with Champ. I can't believe how quickly the time has flown by. We have both enjoyed our time home together. During this time, I think Champ has taught me more that I have taught him. It will always be a time I will remember and cherish.

Here are a few recent pictures for everyone:

Good morning mom...this is how my days start.



As Santa is on his way I wanted to show everyone that it is the simplest things in life that keep me entertained, an energy bar wrapper and my toes.

please stay tuned

Jeff and I truely appologize for our deficiency in updating the blog. As with everyone else the holidays are keeping us running. We travled to LA for Thanksgiving and plan to return for Christmas. In between we took a get-away without Champ to San Francisco. I will further elaborate on all of these stories and post some more recent pictures. Please bear with me.

Also going on arround here is I found out my next job assignment (it took a special waiver to get) and we introduced Champ to his school.

Things here will only get more crazy after the new year with me returning to work. As I stated earlier I will be posting pictures soon, stay tuned.
