So I started this blog to keep everyone updated on our family and haven't posted since August! Oops, so I may have been busy these last 5 months!
Colton is now six months old and can sit supported, play with toys and is eating solids. He is such a HAPPY baby. He smiles at anyone who looks at him and NO ONE can get him giggling like his Daddy! Chris was able to get Noah's belly laugh going at this age too, it's a beautiful thing watching him with both the boys.
Noah is 4 now and very smart. He writes his own name perfectly and loves learning. He is at home with Colton and I full time and so I'm able to spend time going over all the pre-school work books we have and he is very responsive! He seems to learn a new letter everyday! He loves Transformers, it's fascinating to watch him transform these little toys and tell everyone their names and also whether they are an Autobot (the good guys) or a Decepticon (the bad guys). Noah is an incredible big brother. I am in awe of this sibling bond that it seems has been in place since the moment Colton and Noah laid eyes on each other. I can't wait to see it grow stronger as the boys get older.
Chris is at Merrill Lynch now studying for the multiple tests that he needs to pass in order to become a financial advisor with them. He has the honor of joining a very well established team there in Bellevue and is eager to ace these exams and get started on his new career! On New Years Eve he participated in a "Last Chance" marathon in Bellingham and placed third! I am so proud of his focus and determination not only in these races but also at work, keep up the hard work Chris!
I am at home full time with the boys. Three days a week I also nanny for my very good friend's 7 month old daughter Libby. Needless to say I have my hands full and I'm expecting these last 9 pounds to shed quickly as I'm never sitting still. We also stay very busy with our friends here in the neighborhood, I have the greatest support circle here.
I am so excited for 2008, this year is certain to bring great things!! Best wishes to you all, happy, happy New Year!!
