Our first blog
















First and foremost I am not a blogger. I figured I would channel my Facebook addiction into something a little more productive....so we shall see how this goes.

John and I celebrated our first anniversay last Sunday (May 31st). It's been a year of a lot of firsts....first came marriage, then came a baby, then came a new house, new insurance agencies and my new job...as a full-time mom. I can only hope that further achievements in our life happen a little more spread out!

That list doesn't even include all of Elliott's first...He will be 4 months old on the 10th. These days he has had his first giggle (with NeNe), lots of smiles, feet grabbing, first dips in the pool and even his first roll over. Oh and let's not forget his first trip into a bar. He had a bottle and puked on the floor...something he will surely do again, but hopefully not until he is 21.

Our three dogs (Dutch - the chow mix, Bear - the lab mix and Willie - the pug) are adjusting to life as second class citizens in our household. They are begining to learn the plus side to having an infant around...licking up baby spit up, stealing his toys and endless diaper sniffing. I think they will be euphoric by the time he is eating real food and throwing it on the floor!

We look forward to another hot summer in Texas with lots of trips to the pools and lots of beautiful evenings with friends. We have a trip to East Texas Hill Country coming up in August, James and Holly's wedding in Denver in September (our first trip away from the bambino) and a trip home to Kentucky so Elliott can meet his Aunt, Uncles and Cousins.
