September

Not much news on the job front - we felt really good about a job only to learn that they hired someone else... Not so fun. This month I've been keeping busy with my cooking blog doing Challenges for Project Food Blog - basically a contest to win $10,000 and with the way our lives are going right now we could use the money! I've made it to Challenge 3, which has been great! Voting is open and I'd love it if all of you would vote (reader's votes count for 50% of the score to continue on) for me! You can find my profile here or go to my blog and vote by clicking on the link in the left hand side, or just click here.

Daniel's thesis is going okay, it's been a roller coaster but he may finally be getting close to the writing phase! I feel hesitant to say that because in the past month he's been close then not so close - back and forth. So hopefully he's gotten to the point where it won't get far away again!

Eric turned 18 months in September. We took some cute pictures of him, and we also took some cute pictures of him not on his 18 month day. Here they are (18 month photos first):
This is before we cut his hair.
After the hair cut with the green monkey!
He was staring at his Papa, I loved this shot!
Outside - this is behind the house on a dirt road that leads to head gates for our farmer neighbors. Eric loves taking gator rides up here. Just an FYI that cliff on the top is taller than me.
Same place as above, different view.
Eric eating a ring pop - he loves living with grandma!
Eric eating an ice cream bar - he took the chocolate off the ice cream before eating it! Funny that's how I eat it as well, but I don't think he learned it from me!
Eric found a bag of peaches we bought and started eating one.
He really enjoys his fresh peaches!
YUM! Doesn't this just make you want to bite into a juice peach?!?

That's it for this month. Hopefully we'll be informing you we'll be moving in the near future! We will need to get in to a job interview though!
