A New Contributor

Joe's been good to help me come up with things to share on our blog but wants to start taking a more active roll in participating. I hope you all continue to enjoy our blog and get to know Joe's personality through his posts (hopefully you'll get to read more about us this way too).

Pearly Whites

Surprise, surprise, I'm back to write another post! Brooklyn has some big news to share . . . her two bottom teeth popped through yesterday, and I think they're here to stay. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing, but I know for sure that our little baby girl is growing up right before our eyes! She is the best baby ever--I mean it. I've heard horror stories of babies teething--she fussed a little bit more (you could tell something was hurting her), but she still slept through the night, happy and laughing as always, and not even a slight fever. SHE'S A CHAMP!
If you click on the picture, it should make it bigger so you can see those razor sharp teeth.

Happy News

We finally, over a long process that I'll explain later, signed a lease to our new apartment in Spring, TX! We are excited in this next step of our lives but are sad to be moving so far away from our families. The summer has gone by so quickly and there are so many things that I want to share but just haven't got around to it yet. We've had a great summer and in just a couple weeks, Joe will take off to our new home and then Brooklyn and I will joint him about a week later.

Brooklyn's had some fun "firsts"--we've gone to the park where we've helped her go down the slides, she's splashed in a swimming pool, she sits up on her own and loves to stand while holding onto something or someone, and went to a minor league baseball game. I'm sorry I haven't posted more but the camera/computer have been giving me problems that it's taking me more time to do something so small and simple. I have lots of pictures to share, but you'll just have to wait until after our move--I know the anticipation is going to be a killer but oh well. We just wanted to let you all know that we are still doing well and loving life. Joe's working hard keeping the people of Adam's County happy by allowing fewer mosquitoes to live, and I'm working hard keeping our daughter happy by feeding, changing, bathing, reading, singing, playing, strolling, rocking, cuddling, laughing, tickling . . . (I believe I have the fun job)!

We love you all and please keep checking in with us through our blog or email or phone. I'll send out our updated info through email after we move so if we have already moved and you haven't received an email of our updated info, please let us know so we can keep in touch.
