Where to Begin

Recently, I viewed a blog posted by my friends Steve and Shelly. It was very nice to read up on how good the kids are going and other things going on with them. With that, I decided that this might be something rather fun to do. So with that said, I have decided to start my own Blog. Now, if anyone reads it that would be a whole other story. Guess we will have to wait and find out. But with a rapidly grown 1 year old, keeping up to speed is easier said then done.

So to start... Sean is now 15th months old, and boy has that started out with a bang. First, we had shots, and snow. Then, we started temper tantrum and attitudes. And finally, we have our first major injury to report. On Saturday, Sean's fingers came in contact with the bathroom door. And boy did it cause a riot. Sadly, Kenzie ( our babysitter daughter) really had to go potty and she was running to the restroom. As she went to shut the door. Sean was right on her heals and unfortunately Sean's finger wound up rather squished. Poor Kenzie was so heartbroken, you would have thought she lost her favorite action figure (shes not into dollies). She was crying, Sean was crying... I was trying not to cry. In the end we had a squished finger, a nail that fell off, and one big boo boo. But, we know that accidents happen, and Sean still loves Kenzie more then ever... and so do I. I think Sean loves her even more because he got some new cars out of the deal. I am just grateful that Sean's first boo boo not only happened when I was with him and not when I was at work, but also that it was nothing major. A banged up finger we can handle.

On a happy note, Sean's vocabulary is getting increasingly larger as we speak. He has a vocabulary of over 30 words and he is signing about 7. Not bad at all. Some days I can not get him to stop chattering. Sean has also proven to be a great eater. This boy with eat anything you put in front of him.

As for Ryan and I.. things are the same. He is now working for Target, and I am just praying I have a job next school year. All of these budget cuts are a scary thing. Basically, we are praying for the best. We are also planning a trip to Arizona in March. We are going to spring training.. Sean should be a blast this year. We really can not wait.
