Our First "Family" Post

Well, I decied that I wanted to start a blog for our family. I have a personal blog, but I don't always want everyone reading it. Plus it's a Xanga account and it's protected. So... you have to be a Xanga member to be able to read it. This causes a problem for my non-Xanga friends and bloggers. So... all that said... here is our family blog.

I think it's so neat to be able to chronicle your life in this manner. Our generation is such a technologicaly driven generation that this is a perfect way to "journal" without "journaling." I enjoy reading back over my posts that I have written over the past few years. I really try to force myself to post in every season of life for this reason.

So... Family stuff. Jayden is growing, growing, growing! He'll be four in May! I can't believe that! He's just so big! He's so smart. It's amazing how they change so quickly! Here is a pretty sad reflection of Jayden's intellegence and our family's eating habits:
While trying to decide where to eat lunch yesterday, I asked Jayden if he would like to eat at Fazoli's or Popeye's. He said Fazoli's and that was fine. Then I started thinking, "Does he even know what's at Fazoli's or Popeye's? We haven't eaten at either place in a few months." So I ask him what he's going to get at Fazoli's. He looks at me a says, "They have good breadsticks! I want three breadsticks!" Then I ask him what he would get at Popeye's. He said, "Biscuts!" So smart, but we eat out WAY too much!

Jesse is working Full time at the fire department, and part time on the ambulance. He's loving it.

I am working full time as an RN in a NICU in the Texas Medical Center. The drive is long, but it's worth the experience! I get to see some of the sickest babies in the area.

Ok. I guess that's all for now. It's taken quite a while to write this post since I'm at work!
