We're Back!

We're back!

Well..it's been far too long, folks.  I would apologize for my absence, but I trust that you understood my circumstances.  However, with our new iPhones, I've found a faster, sleeker way of managing these blog posts so that I can do so more efficiently.  Also, Katie and I have set aside time each week to make sure this gets done.  What if one of us becomes famous!?  We'll want to make sure we had a blog keeping tabs on our parenting.  

Well, so much has happened in the past few weeks, I will have to touch on the "biggies' and most recent activities.  You'll notice some great pictures below of my buddy, Brad and his daughter, Amelia.  If you click here, you can see a picture of when Daniel was 1 month and Amelia was about 5 months.  Now, Daniel is 5 months and Amelia's about 9.  Goodness gracious.  

Amelia would prefer she be held to my son.

I'd say Daniel was checking out a lady, but I'm pretty sure he's looking at the balls in her hand.

Today we celebrated Kate's birthday with some bowling.  Not much of my own pictures, but it made for an eventful day.  Daniel took a nap through the loud atmosphere.  I was quite proud of him.  He's been sleeping better and better each night.  We actually got to 6am this morning (that's as opposed to 4am most other mornings).  

Some big milestones I should have noted:

1.  Daniel's 5-months old as of February 2nd.  He's HUGE!

2.  He has 1 1/2 teeth.  One is pretty much through, the other (we just noticed today) has a tip just poking through.

3.  He's almost sitting up.  He's so very close.

4.  He rolls back to front to back to front, etc like it's his job.  (We do not pay him though.  Child labor laws).  

Daniel's great though.  It's a constant state of learning, but we're thrilled with how well he's been doing for us.  Kate's been busy being back at work and I'm getting through a couple of my busiest weeks of the year.  We finally got some snow, but didn't take Daniel out into it for fear of...the cold I guess.  It gets pretty cold at times.

Well, hopefully this'll be a weekly thing now.  We're looking at Sunday evenings.  Thanks for being patient!  If anything, this'll be informative to our hardcore readers!  Enjoy the pics!

Good pic.
