Life Changes

A lot has happened with our little family in the last 9 months and I haven't been very good at keeping things up to date. To be honest, I forgot that I had this for a little while!

Continuing from Jerry's last post, Ayden Brent was born January 27, 2010, at 9:19 p.m. at Timpanogos Hospital. He was 8 lbs 3 oz and was 21 1/2 inches after 30 hours of labor. There were some tense moments, but everything worked out just fine and he was born healthy and perfect! It seems this was just yesterday but these last 9 months have flown by. Aside from my skin tone, he is his father's son through and through. He is such an energetic little boy and loves to be on the move. He is a total boy. He is only 9 months old and already seems like a little boy. He is ahead of all the development markers. He had teeth and was crawling by the time he was 6 months. He started pulling up and walking along things not too long after that. Before we knew it, he started walking. He is getting better but is still wobbly. He has also learned to climb stairs and loves it. The only thing now is for him to learn how to go back down. He loves being with his Grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. He especially loves his Aunt Haley! I know this is a really brief summary of 9 months, but I will try and do better. I am on the laptop and all of Ayden's pictures are on our desktop so I will post them soon!

I have finally found a job as an RN after over a year of searching. This job has brought us out to Roosevelt. Everything fell into place with this job. I applied and interviewed for a position they had, but they ended up offering it to another person. I got a call a few weeks later from the Med/Surg nursing supervisor letting me know there was another position open and he wanted me to apply for it. He called me back a couple of days later and offered me the job right on the spot. Needless to say, we were so happy. So 3 weeks later I started at Uinta Basin Medical Center working nights. We finally have our own little place and get to use all the nice things we got for our wedding. We are excited to finally be on our own.

Jerry is now being Mr. Mom, and I think he is enjoying it. It has definately been an adjustment for him being home all day instead of at work. He will be starting back to school in January to continue on his path to becoming a teacher. In the meantime, he got all his papers turned in and processed to be a substitute teacher. Jerry thought this would be a good thing to get some experience. He still helps out the agent he worked for from time to time. It seems that office doesn't function well without him!

We are excited to start this new chapter in our lives !
