February is here

Well, we made it to February! We were without health insurance for one month and were praying that our little baby didn't decide to show up during that window. Thankfully, he didn't and seems to be doing well "inside". His official due date is March 1st so we expect him sometime this month and are getting more excited every day.

William just survived his first business trip. Well, I should say Lori "survived". William was busy learning all kinds of new things, staying in a nice hotel, and going out to eat every night. Poor him :) I missed him a lot and counted the days until he got home. I guess this is something I need to get used to but I admit, I am a sap and a wimp---I missed him terribly.

We have been really blessed to find some great people in our ward, people who have already helped so much with our transition here. I was afraid it would take me a long time to find anyone I felt comfortable leaving the kids with while I went to doctor appointments, but I have already found several people who have been wonderful. Just another confirmation that we are in the right place.

William's job keeps him very busy and he has already been to several different clients working on various projects. Sometimes he's in San Francisco, sometimes Oakland, and this coming week he'll be in Santa Clara. Never a dull moment, which is great!

As for me, it seems I'm always involved in "training". I catch myself using that term a lot in relation to the kids. A few weeks ago, it was sleep training for both of them as new challenges arose with jumping out of the crib for Annabelle and losing the nap for Abraham. Then was the transition to "big kid" beds. As of late, it's been potty training for Abraham---what a job! So, these in addition to the everyday training that comes along with child-rearing, keeps me in the "never a dull moment" category as well.

Well, stay tuned for more posts. The clock is ticking as we anxiously await the arrival of baby Alexander. Stay tuned!
