10 months old!! Yippeee!!!!

Well, Ethan is 10 months old today! We can hardly believe it. Ethan had a doctors appointment last week and he was 23 pounds 29 inches. He is crawling all over the place! He will walk along the furniture and he pulls himself onto everything!


We are all moved into our new home in Pennsylvania - and we are with daddy again!

Things in PA are going well. We are busy trying to get the boxes unpacked and the house organized.

Daddy will be busy the month of March - the power plant is having it's annual outage. Daddy will be working 6 days on 1 day off - 12 hours per day - for 3 weeks! That's adds up to 32 hours of overtime every week and means some extra $$ to pay off our move! Yea!!


Other than that - we are just trying to stay warm and get to know the area!

We will try and post more often now that we are a little more organized!

Hope all is well!

Guess who's 9 months old!!!

I can't believe my little angel is already 9 months old! He is no longer a little baby.....he is my little boy!

He's crawling at what seems to be the speed of light! I put him down and ZOOM he's already on the other side of the room. He is such a big boy that he really doesn't like to be held all that much anymore, unless of course he's tired or in a clingy mood. Ethan would much rather be crawling on the floor or walking along the couch between mommy and grandma Jane.

The first time he started to walk along the couch it might have taken him 10-15 minutes. Now, he will go between us like 2 times in a minute or two! He lightening fast!

This past week we have also closed on the house we found in Pottstown, PA. The furniture is scheduled to head back next week somtime, as is Grandpa Ray! Grandpa Ray is going to be driving Tracey's jeep back loaded with Archie, Kona and the two kitties....plus anything else that will fit! Grandpa Ray will also be meeting the movers when they arrive and direct them with the furniture. Tom can't take any time off of work while he is in training, so if the furniture is delivered on a week day....Grandpa Ray needs to be there.

Tracey, Ethan and Grandma Jane will be flying out whenever grandpa Ray gets back to Seattle.

I have pictures to post - but no time! As soon as I have time...I will post a few.

Otherwise, our move is progressing to the next phase and hopefully by the middle of February Ethan and Mommy will see daddy again! It's been about a month a half now....Boy, do we miss daddy!!!!

Hope all is well!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!

Merry Christmas from Tom, Tracey, and Ethan
Ethan is now 8 months old!

Tom's First Week at New Job...

Well, Tom 'passed' his background check and is now an 'official' employee of Exelon. He got his id badge and personalized hard hat!

He now has a 4 day weekend to rest and relax. He met a guy at work who enjoys football and xbox who is also by himself for the holidays to they are going to hang out and be bachelors this weekend.

Ethan and Mommy sent Tom some goodies to get him through the Holiday weekend and also a little Christmas Tree to cheer up Tom's room.

Ethan and Mommy miss Daddy very much and we are very sad to be spending the holiday apart!

Hope everyone has a Merry ChristmaHanuKwanza ~~ Happy Holidays!! =)

Early Christmas for Ethan

Ethan got to open one his Christmas presents because daddy left for his new job in PA on Monday. Grandma got him a walking Pooh Bear and he likes it.

Ethan is 7 months old today!

I can't belive this little bundle of joy is 7 months old!

He is the best baby in the whole wide world!! We have been blessed with a super baby!

We are busy packing up the house - so that's our priority at the moment. I should have time next week to post some new pictures once we are settled at mt mom's house!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Moving On

In case you haven't heard yet, we are relocating to the Pottstown,Pa area. I accepted a job working for the Exelon Corp. at their Limerick nuclear generating station. The job starts December 17th. Fortunately, we were able to sell our current home without ever putting it on the market. A neighbor is buying it as an investment property. Tracey and Ethan won't come to PA until January sometime, so hopefully I can find a house for us to buy.

Ethan is a big boy now. At his 6 month checkup he was 27 inches and 18lbs. He's in the 80th percentile for height now! We were at Target the other night and ran into a couple that had a 13 month old girl, we stood them next to one another and they were the same height and size!!!!

Ethan is 6 months old today!

WOW! It's been a long time since I've posted anything.

Things around here are quite busy.....My little peanut is waking from his nap at the moment - so as soon as I have another 2 minutes - I will update with pictures and what's been going on around here!

Sorry it's been awhile!!! Check back soon.....I hope I have something posted by then!

Labor Day Weekend - Lake Wenatchee

Over Labor Day weekend we went up to the Bath Family's cabin, near Lake Wenatchee. Here are some pictures from that fun day!

5 months old today!

Our boy is 5 months old today - I can not believe it! He's growing soo dang fast.

Not much going on these past few weeks. Trying to get my back to a place where I feel comfortable again. I have a feeling - until Ethan is older, it might be awhile.

Other than that just gearing up for Grandma Shirley's visit next week! Yeah!

I have tons of new pictures to add to the posts....so Enjoy!
