Hello Wonderful World of Blogging!

So I finally gave in to doing a blog :)  Family and friends can check in with us and I will do my best to keep everyone up-to-date with our life.  So I hope my page will become prettier and nicely decorated as I become more familiar with blogging.

Well, I'll start by filling everyone in on what is going on in our crazy life :) Crazy but great!  For those that don't know, Brian received a scholarship for his schooling at Yavapai College, was accepted as an honors student and I am SO proud of him!  He works his butt off and it has paid off.  Brian is still adjusting to life in a small town but he is managing to make the best of it.  My California boy is a wonderful father.....no, actually he's even better than wonderful.  I couldn't have asked for a better daddy for our son and it's icing on the cake that he also happens to be a pretty fantastic husband!  I had better stop before his head gets enormous :)

Jack is a year old now and his personality is kicking into full gear.  He is hilarious and so very stubborn - he will let us know what he wants and what he doesn't.  He loves to play, be outdoors, bath time, long walks and mommy's baked goods :)  He does NOT like car rides, his diaper being changed, when mommy is cooking and I'm not holding him, when the dogs get treats and he does not and getting put down for naps.  The majority of the time he is such a fun kid and I am so incredibly fortunate to be his mommy!  He is a ham and a half and he enjoys every ounce of attention that comes his way.

I am busy housing our baby girl Chloe - going on 22 weeks - over the halfway mark!  Yeah!  I feel pretty good except for the round ligament pains that give me grief on a daily basis.  I'm not looking forward to being large and in charge during the brutal AZ summer but I will do my best to not complain too much :)  I am having a blast shopping for a little girl - it is so fun!  And so dangerous!  Friends and family have already began shopping for our princess as well, which is so thoughtful.  Our Chloe is so loved and that makes my heart very happy!  I still work part-time at a lovely gallery in Downtown Prescott and fortunately I love my job, my co-workers and our customers.  I do plan on working until I go into labor - let's just hope that doesn't happen at work, which would be my luck!

That's a recap of what our life is like at the moment...more to come XXXX
