9 Months Old!!!
I can't believe our little boy is nine months old already. The time has gone by so fast. Ethan is getting so big. His top two teeth are almost all the way through, he loves to stand up, and eats just about anything now. The time has just flown by. It is hard to believe Jesse has been gone five months already. I hope the next five months go just as fast. He is such an amazing little boy. He is so smart and has such a happy disposition. Even total strangers comment on how happy and alert he is. I am so proud of the boys in my life! I can only hope Ethan will grow up to be a wonderful man like his father! Much love to you both.

Thanks to Everyone...
Well today is a new day....hopefully things will start to settle down now. Yesterday was a crazy birthday -- I guess one I will never forget. The surgery went well. I go back in a week to get the stitches removed. I just wanted to thank you to everyone! So many of you called or sent gifts (or both) for my birthday and to make sure I was ok after the surgery. I really appreciate all your support. It is so hard not to have Jesse here to lean on. It really means a lot to know I am so loved! We had a great time with Erin and Bob visiting. I just wish Erin could have stayed longer! The time went to fast! Well my mom and I are off to the cabin for the weekend. Hope everyone is well! Love to you all from Ethan and I!!

Crazy Week...
Well it seems I have started to slack off on posts. This week has just been nuts. For those of you I talk to regularly you know I have been in a state of chaos for the last few days. I had a mini-crisis with my car, a very expensive crisis I might add. Then I learned I had skin cancer. Wow, what a week. It is during the chaotic times like this that I really miss having Jesse's shoulder to cry on/lean on. It is hard to be alone during the rough times. I am starting to learn to be independent, when it comes to things like cars and yard work, but when it comes to health concerns you really need someone there. I can't wait for Jesse to come home to visit. I miss him so much. I can't wait to see him. It will be an awesome time. Well I am staying strong...holding down the fort back home. Tomorrow's another day....
