Daddy Loves Me SOOO Much!

Chris is absolutely hands down an amazing father! He loves his boys so much.

The Office is FINALLY coming together!!

So Chris and I feel like we have stock in Verizon after the 15 phone calls we have made over the past three weeks.....if it wasn't the lightning storm that fried our old computer, a new modem being shipped, a new computer, old printer would not work with Windows Vista....so we must use the fax machine printer, but if we use the fax, then we need a wireless router so that we don't have ugly exposed cords.....ugh!! But it is finally all hooked up, cords tucked away, and working.

The moral of the story, one purchase ALWAYS leads to many others..........overall we must say we are very impressed with Verizon DSL customer service.

Mommy wants me to play with my Big Boy Toys

Luke has so many toys and I am dying to have him play with them. Well we tried out the jumper and bumbo......and um, still too small! Well, at least the pictures will be fun to look back at.

The Debate!!

Chris at 8 days old


Luke at about 1-1/2 months

So there is sometimes a debate over who Luke looks most like. People that knew Zach when he was little, say Zach......however, anyone who sees Chris's baby picture.....is hands down Chris. You see what you think!

When I look at Chris's pictures, I feel like his mom is holding Luke and not Chris. It is not as real in the pictures of Luke, but it is a little crazy in real life.

It's the Weekend!!

I am so glad that it is Saturday!! The only bummer thing is that Chris does not wake up until 11 am due to working nights. Once he wakes I have to drive about one hour round trip to a client's house so I can close their case. Oh well.....then I will get to hang out with my boys!

Chris and I have a little wager going on to see who can lose 10 pounds the quickest (healthy style...exercise and eating). We haven't decided on the reward, any suggestions??? I totally got this one. Thirteen pounds and I will be at my pre-pregnancy weight. If I work really hard, I can accomplish this by our San Diego trip. This means beefing up the exercise routine, however. I am striving to get back to my normal weight as I was a little heavy when I got pregnant. This means I have 25 pounds to go!! Geez that seems like a lot!

Just Hanging Out with Litlle Man!

Just chillin....waiting for daddy to wake up!

Sporting my big boy shoes....

So I could not work today because....oops the procrastinator in me forgot until three weeks ago to renew my "registered counselor", which is a requirement for me to work. Yesterday I was informed that it still had not renewed. About 10 calls later, I made arrangements to have someone cover my areas in the hospital.

The blessing in this is that I got another day with Luke and Chris....Zach is at school. I just saw that it renewed, but I am not going to go in until tomorrow. The other cool thing is that I do not have any other private clients to see today, so it is a whole day off.

We are going to Luke's daycare (Kadlec Medical Center...where I work) for the intake appointment. We have already toured, etc. but have to finalize everything. Chris hates the idea of Luke going to daycare. I don't like it either, however I will be able to see him three times a day at work, so this will be nice.

Enjoy the pictures of Luke just hanging out this morning.

Zach's First Day of 4th Grade....

Zach being cool for the traditional first day of school picture by the front door.

Family picture....now with little Luke!

On the playground acting cool before the bell rings!

Well it was Zach's first day of 4th grade. Those boys and girls are hilarious. The playground was struck with nervous nillies running all around. Some boys were playing around, making funny faces, while the girls were squealing in delight at seeing each other again. Lots of new shoes, clothing, and backpacks.

It was exciting and sad at the same time. I have always been one to be very excited when Zach reached another goal in life. It began when he was a baby and continues to this day. It is so hard to believe that he only has 4th and 5th grade left until he won't want me around much....the dreaded middle school.....then High School.....then he will marry a girl that will take him away! So sad....love my boys, but girls tend to stick around their family more after marriage. OKAY, I am jumping a little far ahead....he is only 9 years old. Well I will continue to enjoy watching my little guy grow up!!
