Busy, well kind of

We have officially been in Logan for one week now. We are staying with our friends Court and Marcie. They have been so kind to let us stay until we close on our house, March 3rd. They have a great big house and are letting us stay in their basement. Spencer started his job at the clinic and really loves it. As his first act as manager, he sat down two MA's that work there.... they are sisters and apparently one of them is full-time and the other is just on-call because family members can't work there at the same time. So being the man he is Spencer sat them down and told them that he would be watching them both for the next 30 days, and whoever he liked better he would keep, then he would fire the other one!!
I told Spencer that I hoped he laughed afterwards... or at least smiled so
they knew he was joking... oh dear.
Eli is doing so good, considering he is totally out of his element and is sleeping in our closet. Court and Marcie have two kids who love Eli so he gets to have attention on h
im all the time!
As for me? I have explored all over town. I have gone to some great stores, had a fun lunch with Carol, a long lost friend from elementary school, met some of Marcie's friends from El Salvador and made Pupusas (sp?), gone on walks, and watched a LOT of HGTV. I
am not really sure what to do with myself now that I am not working. It is so strange, but nice. Here are some photos of our latest:

My baby boy

Since this blog serves somewhat as a journal as well as keeping friends and family up to date, I figure this is a good place to saw what I am feeling these days. Note: if you don't like cheesy or if you feel uncomfortable with sappy, stop reading now.


I cannot even express into words the amount of love I have for my little boy. He is the BIGGEST blessing and joy I have ever had. I love his smell, I love going to get him first thing in the morning, I love his smile, I love when he reaches for me, I love when he claps. I love the little baby wrinkles in his legs, I love his hair, I love the new things he learns each day. I love watching him learn and develop, I love to have him asleep on me. I love his cry, I love his laugh, I love spending all of my time with him. I didn't even know I was capable of loving someone so much. He is the best thing in the world. I am excited to wake up each day now and forever with my son, I love you Eli!

P.S. I think that Spencer is still around here somewhere.
