Teething -- Yes, Ethan is cutting his first two teeth (they are the front bottom ones). I can see the white tops just about to pop through. The last few days he has been pretty fussy, wanting to nurse alot and then not wanting to nurse at all... wanting to be held alot. It's been crazy! But for the most part he's still a happy smiley baby through it all. Will post a cute toothy pic once they are out!
Toddler Bed -- Trey is sleeping in a toddler bed now for all of his naps and sometimes at night (we leave the night sleeping up to him). We debated alot on when to make this transition, but figured since Ethan is still with us, this was the best time... so Trey still has a crib option to slowly transition and also so he doesn't wake Ethan up when Ethan is in there. So far so good!
Ethan's 6 Month Checkup -- I can't believe my little man is already half a year old!! He had his 6 month checkup yesterday and is a nice whopping 19 lbs and 27 inches long. I figured as much! I can barely carry him around anymore in his carrier. Ethan is still a laidback baby with lots of big smiles for everyone, especially the ladies. He loves Trey most of all still! He loves his bounch Baby Einstein activity center and will easily bounce an hour in there... strong legs. He doesn't want to do tummy time and hasn't shown much interest in moving around yet, but there is no rush. He loves to screech and make lots of other crazy sounds, but no babbling yet, except "mamamama" when he's crying and really upset! He loves his solids and had avocado, sweet potato, carrots, green beans, broccoli, apples, bananas, and pear so far.
WCA -- We had good news this week! WCA, the school where Pj works, will be able to stay in their new bldg another year for sure. They just found out yesterday. There is a chance of a long-term deal too. Be praying about that... that the long-term deal would work out. Not knowing the past months had been very stressful for Pj so we're just so excited about this and happy we go on vacation and not have to think about it anymore.
Graphic Design Business -- I guess its marketing season out there! I have been getting lots of graphic design jobs lately... which has been a fun artsy break for me not to mention good for our checking account. I would love even more business so if you know of anyone who needs something designed, let me know! I have a blog

I can design your invitations... or create an e-announcement for you! Just let me know:-)
Babies -- My sister Sarah is due with her little girl at the end of April and I'm so excited. I've had fun buying girly stuff for my niece.... she will be spoiled! Absolutely spoiled!!! I can't wait for Trey and Ethan to have a female cousin too!! It will be a fun summer. We had a baby shower for her last weekend and it was so great. I can't believe she is almost due now! The time has flown by!
Beach Trip -- Tomorrow morning we are headed down to the Fleming's beach house in Corolla, NC for a Pj's spring break week. We can't wait! It is a much needed much anticipated break for us. I've planned lots of fun new stuff to do with Trey, plus I hope to sleep and go running for me time! Not to mention they have cable so I will tune in to HGTV (my favorite) pretty much all the time. We'll be posting pics! It will be Ethan's first trip to the beach!
Aquarium -- We took Trey to the aquarium in Baltimore a few weeks ago without Ethan so home could get alone time with us. He had so much fun! He ran from tank to tank checking everything out. Partly I think he just thought it was cool we were letting him run and look on his own. He LOVED the jellyfish and dolphins the most.... wasn't to big on the sharks... and came home with a stuffed octopus animal that he loves to pieces! Afterward we took him for a late dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. He was just glowing the whole night... it made us so happy to see him so happy:-)
