Update.

Reece and I have been off the last two weeks. It's been quite nice to just be able to relax and not do any adulting. Since we're going back to work soon, I thought I'd write a bit about how life's been so far this year(:

Last week, we celebrated our first year anniversary. Which is the reason why we took leave in the first place. We were originally going to spend a week in Seattle but I got nervous about putting our big baby (Sarg) in a pet boarding place. Only because he's getting older and I didn't want to stress him out too much if I didn't have too. So instead, we just went out to dinner. We ate at a steakhouse downtown called Sullivan's. It was pretty darn tasty. Reece said that it was the best steak he's ever had. Since paper is the traditional gift for first year wedding anniversaries, I got Reece a three slot picture frame and printed out google map images of three places-where we met, where we got married, and where we currently live. Thank goodness for Pinterest. 

Another big thing that's happened since New Year's is that we got some new furniture and filled up our house a little bit more. Here are a couple pictures (excuse the messiness).

New Couch :D

Other half of the living room, added bookshelf.

Rearranged Loft with Reece's new desk.

It's feels so nice to have more furniture to fill up the house with. We also finally put together our legos and added more to it. It's still a bit messy with random lego people laying everywhere. I kinda wish we had an actually area to really set up our little lego city.

That's pretty much it for new stuff with us. The boys are doing good. We did have a bit of a scare with Sarg and he now takes "Old Man Medicine" for his arthritis. He's been doing so much better since he started taking them.  We're looking forward to see what else this year has in store for us. Thanks for stopping by. I'm going to try and get better at blogging. Until next time(:

This time last year..

WARNING: This is a long post. I meant to share this last year but never got around to it. So here it is now. My story on when I got sick last year. Probably the scariest time of my life... September 28, 2017- I woke up thinking I was starting to get sick. Ugh. Who likes being sick? It was kind of hard to breathe, I felt sluggish and thought I was starting to get a fever. It was Thursday and also the last day of the training class I was in for work. I got up and got ready to try to survive the day. I wasn't going to let a cold stop me. For the last day, we spent the morning just going over one of the loading systems we use and then after lunch we were going to end the class with a class evaluation. Being a seasoned AMMO troop, I stood off to the side so the younger, newer members could get more hands on training. Half-way through the morning, I started to feel a weird sensation in my left arm. It also was harder to breathe than it was when I first woke up. Noticing this, I start

Hair color is light brown Eyes to my amazement, his eyes are still a beautiful blue Sleeping Been taking little longer naps lately and sleeps a good minimum of 5-6 hours a night.  Eating Now on Alimentum (hypoallergenic formula). Still has the feeding tube. His goal is to eat a minimum of 110 mLs every 3 hours. What he doesn't eat on his own, we feed him through the tube. At night, since he seems to be extra sleepy, we do a continuous feed so we don't have to bother him. This month Starting to tolerate tummy time. He loves his piano mat!  We've been able to keep gloves off him so he's been really catching up-using his hands more, playing with his feet, reach

As I write this, Joey's just sitting in his bouncer, talking excitedly and watching our dog Sarg. I cannot believe that my little stallion turned 6 months about 13 days ago. Where has time gone?!

Any who(: Weight  14 lbs 11 oz Length 25.2 in Clothes Size Some 3-6 and 6 months.  Hair Coming in nicely. Finally has been growing hair in his little old man hairline. Still brown. Eyes To my amazement, his eyes are still a beautiful blue Sleeping Sleeps about 6-8 hours a night. Takes 2-4 naps a day, length varies on the day (as many other parents probably know) Eating Alimentum (hypoallergenic formula). Still has the feeding tube. Still feed him overnight with a drip (continuous) feed and he gets about 120 mLs every 3 hours during the day. Overall goal is at least 28 oz a day.
