As Aiston becomes more mobile, social, and clever -- I wonder - how do people do it? Single parents, that is. I mean really, how have I not realized what an impossible feat it is to raise a child, let alone multiple, with the hands, brain, and emotional will-power of only one human being? On top of that - working full time outside the home!! Incredible. God bless all of you.

Eric and I went on a lovely trip to a friend’s wedding in Tampa 2 weekends ago...without Ace! (Courtesy of Lolli and Pop! A big shout-out to them!) It was a fun-filled weekend during which we may have relished in our freedom a little too much. I'd say given that circumstances though, we handled ourselves comparatively well. ;) It was also very strange/tough to be away from Ace for that long, and I missed him terribly! (Hence the phone calls every 30 minutes to my mom!) It was a "first" for the family, and overall I would say a success! Phew, one hurtle down and a million more to go!

Merry Christmas!

Sorry it has been so long since I've updated! We've been very busy these last few months. Thanksgiving was very nice in Jax (apart from my parents being away) and we were able to relax and enjoy friends and family. When we returned we packed up our house and moved to a new home! It was all a whirlwind and we are finally getting settled into our new neighborhood in "Goose Creek". It is soooo quiet and we love it! God has truly blessed us. We have plenty of room for Aiston to crawl around... which he should be doing very soon! He is sitting up on his own now. He also has his two front bottom teeth...just in time for Christmas. He's growing so fast!

Christmas was so much fun this year with Aiston! I think he really enjoyed himself. :) We enjoyed spoiling him anyways. It's always fun to see the grandparents. The weather was a little warm...but beautiful! We actually got to go to the beach a couple days! I'm sad it had already come and gone...but am excited for what the new year will bring!
