This week alot has been happening to us. First and formost...Nate has desided to sleep very well. He has slept about 8-9 hours the last couple of nights, then he eats and goes back down for about 2-3 more. It has been wonderful! Although I do admit the first night I went and checked on him twice to see if he was okay or not. He was of course. Hopefully he'll keep up this regiment since I go back to work on Monday. It is only part time from about 8-12 every day, so that isn't too bad. I'll let you know how the first day goes.
Another thing that happened this week was our decision for Charlie to go back to school in the fall. He wants to finish getting his degree and major in Education. He dream job is to be able to work for the Church Educational System. We'll see how that goes, it is kinda hard to get into that program we've been told. But he definately wants to teach. That will be a good job b/c then we can move any where we want to. (Missouri hopefully) The tough part isn't only on Charlie going back to school but that I'll have to go back to working full time most likely. But I am willing since he will be going year round so that he can finish as quickly as possible. Hopefully about 2-3 years depending on what credits will transfer for him. It will be a great opportunity and experience for us and we are looking forward to it! Unfortunatley that also mean staying in Florida until he finishes, but then we are out of here!
Also this week, we have really started to notice how big Nate is getting. The picture on the left is his "surprise" picture. The one on the right shows how big he is. He is fitting into his 3 month clothes perfectly. Yes he'll be 3 months in just 11 days! I can't believe it. He is so happy and smiles all the time. He is such a joy to have in our family. Some days it is hard to believe that Heavenly Father sent such a sweet little boy to us. Maybe that is for making us wait 2 years to get pregnant! I'd like to think so. But that doesn't mean that every time we want to have a baby we want to try for 2 years. That is a long time and it gets very stressful. Well I'll keep ya posted on the going back to work. Hopefully Nate will be a good boy for the lady who babysits him, she goes to our church and has 6 kids of her own, but they are all in school or grown.

That's great that Nate is sleeping so well at night. Good luck Charlie going back to school!
A whole new dining room set really. It's from a family in our ward who was upgrading theirs. Thanks for noticing. Yes, not funny for me...at least not when it happened, but it's a little comical when I think about it :)
Hey! Thanks for the comments on our blog. I know I'm old. I'm the oldest 25 year old in the world. Ok, technically I'm 31, but who's keeping track? (Besides you)
Yeah, the ice here is GREAT. We love it! You're missing out, what with your sandy beaches and whatnot.
Congrats on the school decision, Chuck. Good luck. When you're done with school, you get your happy butts back here. Trav misses you, Chuck. He won't stop crying, it's pathetic.
I'm so glad little man is sleeping through the night for you. Every three months during the firdt year babies go through a growth spurt. They sleep more at night and they eat all day long.
Ii was just noticing that little red mark on his chest. You never told me about it. Is it a hemangioma? It looks like one. Have you asked your doctor? That is what Devan has under his left eye, only his is under the surface and looks like a bruise. They both go away over time.
Anyhow, we miss you guys! Nate's a beautiful little guy. Talk to ya soon!
