My job has finally picked up in pace and I am beginning to comprehend the full scope of my responsibilities there. I love working with the students, and I truly feel that working with at-risk students in higher education is exactly where I belong. I'll admit, I had no idea the amount of energy and organization it would take to be a working mommy, and we are still learning how to be the best for Grace that we can be with both of us busy all day.
Mark enjoys his job and is gaining more influence and leadership with his colleagues. After two years, it is amazing to see how far he has come; and it's exciting to look to the future possibilities for his career! He LOVES being a daddy... and it's harder and harder to leave for the office each new morning.
The last month (and a half) has been busy with family visits, traveling, friends in town, dinner dates in the 'burbs, and adjusting to Grace's preferences- which seem to change daily!
Grace is just such an adorable baby; we feel so lucky to get to spend time with her every day! She has learned how to roll over from front to back, and back to front! We have learned that she is VERY sensitive to getting enough sleep, and that we have to enforce as much nap time during the day as possible as well as a 7:45pm bed time. Without enough sleep, she just isn't the same baby!
And now, the real reason most of you visit our little page.... pictures of Baby Grace! These are from just a few "photo shoots" and I'll be loading our camera phone pics soon. Her 3-month photo shoot was a little delayed.... hence the date on Daddy's birthday! (instead of March 8th. oops!) Enjoy!
