Milestones

So...it's been a while. What's been happening:

At work, I'm now technically "part time." What does that mean? When I figure it out I'll let you know....just kidding. Basically, I now have the freedom to come and go as I need to. I go in to work for meetings, and then can work from home during the surrounding time. This is helping to cut back on babysitting, but I need to work even harder to "cut back" (it's hard to break the routine...)

Logan reported to the police academy yesterday! He says he alternates between being really glad and excited he has the job, and thinking "what the heck am I doing here?" Hopefully, the former sentiment will win the day! He'll be gone Mon-Thursday each week, but we talk on the phone a lot, and it won't be long until I see him again! I miss him, but this is doable. He's learning a lot, too. It really is an academy!

We got a truck. Yup. Didn't see that one coming, but Logan's pretty happy. I'll post pictures a bit later. Right now I still feel weird about having purchased two cars within six months...can't wait for my tax return!

Life is good :-) The boys are growing so fast (especially Jack--he's still in the 95th percentile for weight! He's my big boy.) They amaze me every day with the things they are learning. Tommy recently started singing a lot more, which is always fun, and then last week he said his first prayer! It was adorable. Yesteday Tommy talked to Logan on the phone, and he very clearly said "I love you, Daddy." It was so sweet! These little mile stones are precious. I'm glad I get to be around for them :-)

  3. So, with Logan out of town so much, we need to have a girl's night! I saw the boys yesterday, and I can't believe how much they look alike. Crazy! They're growing up so fast.

  4. Good luck at the academy, Logan, and good luck holding down the home front, Emilie! Being apart is never fun or easy so let us know if we can do anything to help make your life a little easier. I love your picture of the month, so precious:)
