Updates

It’s been a while since I updated. What’s been keeping me so busy?

Well mainly work. But of course there’s also family. And Jess and I have moved into our new house in Perry, it’s very nice and we’re liking being a lot closer to where we spend most of our time. (I’m less than four miles from work.) More details on the house to come later.

Work has been good as well. I’ve really gotten into video production and I’m having a blast with that. We’re gearing up to launch a redesigned website in the next couple of weeks, needless to say that has been taking up a lot of my time. Work is awesome though, it’s nice to be doing something I enjoy with people who share common goals and vision.

But, what has most changed since I last posted is Rabun. Of course she’s doing awesome and continuing to grow.

She is still beautiful and is starting to look more like Jess. Of course those two go hand in hand.

She has enjoyed several trips to the lake this year and finally got used to her life jacket.

She went to the beautician for her “first” haircut. (We had to cut her hair around Christmas just a little bit because it was just too unruly.)

She loves playing with all her other friends, especially cousins.

She had her first birthday party…

She’s almost completely spoiled, which we’re working on.

She’s still extremely flexible.

She likes to sit in her chair she got from Nana for her birthday and read her book.

Basically she’s completely awesome.

There’s an update. Hopefully it won’t be eight months til the next one, but I’m not promising anything.

When we moved into our house, we knew it would be a lot of work.  Little did I know that my dear husband would have to risk his neck cutting down limbs in one of the trees.  While Dad lifted the tractor bucket, Dan would stand and cut with the chainsaw.  He is so talented.

How does your hair look when you wake up?  Our little one has some serious bed-head issues.

Rubber Ducky

leave a comment »

Dan acquired a rubber duck float for Rabun.  It is rather large, not really the type toy you toss into the toy basket.  As you can tell from the picture below, both of them have had a great time playing it.  So, if you come to the house and see this huge duck in the corner of the living room, please don’t be too shocked.
