IT"S A BOY!!!

Well, I am finally getting around to writing on our blog. Dan has done all of the work thus far! (I have been so impressed with how much time he has spent on it) I have sat in the chair beside him saying, "Oh-yah! I like the picture there, etc." As Dan has mentioned, life is at it's all-time craziest! Every day is filled with adventure as Dan works to juggle full-time school, (and really-really hard classes) the early morning shift at UPS, an internship with an occupational therapist in the afternoon, watching Noelle in the evenings (while I work) and an all-day Friday position at the Local Plumber's Union office. He is such a trooper- and never complains! I, on the other hand am fortunate to work a semi-full time position assistant-managing at the gym, rotating between days and evenings to allow time at home with Noelle when I can. While we are gone, Noelle either spends her time with Grandma Shirley, Nana or Papa Aldama or Nikki. Fortunately she loves "all of her people" and is so happy to be with any of her caregivers. We are so blessed to have willing and loving family to help us through this busy period! (I often say, that we have a village raising our child) She is so happy and I know so much of this is due to having so many people who care for her and love her!

Last Wednesday, we found out that we are pregnant with a boy! Yipee! I have been in frilly-girl land for the last two years. What a change this is going to be! The addition to our home is going to be exciting. You know, when you buy a car and then start looking around at the other cars like yours on the road... I feel that way now. I can't stop looking around at all of the little boy babies I see. We are really, really excited! (However, I can wait!) We are about 5 months along and expecting in March. (Stasia's b-day to be exact) I am enjoying my one-on-one time with Noelle. I had no idea that one and a half was such a fun age. I love spending time with her-she's just a little buddy. She is talking all of the time, playing alot, singing all of the time and just curious as can be. She loves winnie the pooh, her cousins, reading, climbing and going to gymanstics! (Started jumping-it's really cute) Life seems to get better every day! It is a blast!

I hope all of you are doing well! We are entering into Gina and Josh's wedding weeked. (I get to have my toes and nails done today!) We will post pictures after the wedding! Happy October!
All of my love, Tami
