The Biggest Day Since The Wedding......

Is Sunday, and we couldn't be more excited to continue on our journey. Thanks to everyone who has supported us, primarily Justin of course, in this seemingly endless adventure!

I am so VERY proud of Justin, and can't wait to see what the future holds for us.

Congratulations Sweets! You have EARNED it!

(I'm sure this is how you feel right about now )

Puzzle Love




I have to get on the wagon with updating more than once a month ;)




Recently, Logan has taken up the hobby of puzzles




He LOVES them, he will finish a 25 piece one in 5 minutes! Which means we have an abundance of puzzles overflowing our game closet and subsequently random pieces such as lightning mcqueens eye, or texas and missouri all over the place :)




I love that he has an interest in them, but his cleaning up skills need some tweaking ;)




I need to upload my pictures of him working on them, maybe next months post :)
So here is a random picture :)
Justin, Jordan and Jake posing for a picture for Jeff and Jill's 25th Anniversary, this wasn't the one that was blown up, but its my favorite :)
Also labeled by the boys as the "Beatles" picture, they felt a bit like the backstreet boys during our shoot. Three grown-up (almost) boys, and 84 pictures, do you know how many turned out well enough to be blown up as a gift? FOUR!

**Michigan**





Logan used about half my memory card taking pictures of his dvd player ;)










We took a trip to Michigan earlier this month, Logan loved the hotel swimming pool,it was nice because we were the only ones using it!
The trip was nice, and productive which is always a good thing :)
Hopefully I can get a few pictures up from the Dells soon, we had a blast!

Museum





























Saturday we took Logan to the Museum of Science and industry in Chicago :)







He loved the airplanes, and the trains but that was expected. We had a great time and can't wait to go back this summer to the Shedd Aquarium, Navy Pier and the Field Museum. After we left the museum, we drove up Lakeshore Drive and through the city, it was really neat to see the different types of neighborhoods. Much more diverse than Milwaukee ;) We can't wait to go Back!

BROKEN :(











Written in time...








My camera is broken :( and I missed out on pictures from our awesome experience last week, we took Logan to Disney on Ice last Friday, and he fell in LOVE!
The only pictures I got are the four aoove, not smiling faces, and poor quality :(
Right after I take the picture my the whole thing shuts off, so I am going to have to replace it, which is unfortunate because I do love that camera.
I reallly want the Nikon D-80, but its a little out of my price range. Boo :(
We'll see what I end up with!!!

Not Much....

To talk about.
My spring semester got into full swing this week, I ended up dropping a class and adding another. The syllabus for the dropped class was 27 pages long. Yeah, I don't have the time for a course with so much work. Which is unfortunate, because it was really interesting and fit beautifully into my schedule.
Still no decision on Law School for Justin. Frustrating for sure, but time will tell.
Logan is doing great, loving school, so much in fact that he doesn't want to come home at the end of the day, he says "he doesn't have any friends at home" poor only child :) It's common for him to stick up for Jack and Lola when they've misbehaved labeling them as his "best friends". :)


The biggest news is that we move next week! Into an apartment, but its cheaper, will be quieter, in a great location and its only temporary as we don't know where the future will bring us. Aside from the outdated brown carpet and the orange refrigerator, it seems like it will be a good fit for our family :) I'm looking forward to decorating a new place, I have so many ideas!

So, the past nine months or so ;)

We have done alot of things, the zoo ALOT! We went to the beach, ALOT, finally got to the waterpark here in Port, had the aunts over for a sleepover weekend, enjoyed the awesome weather we had here this summer, and enjoyed our time as a family :)

Now that classes are almost over for Justin and I for the fall term, we are faced with a dilemma, we need to move by January 31st. It will all work out, but the timing isn't so nice, right in the middle of winter, we still don't know which law school Justin will end up at, and the holidays :(
But, we'll get through it! We are excited for a change of scenery, and Logan wants a new room or so he says, as long as he can have his bed :) I think that kid will sleep in his crib until he's 13 if we let him! Oh well, there are worse things to be attached to.

I am excited to say that one of my proffessors invited me to be in a political communications class, she said I exhibited qualities for that field, so I am going to give it a try, Saturday mornings for about six weeks, and I get 3 credits, so it works for me!

Justin is working his butt off as usual in school, he has a heavy courseload, and is up until the early moring hours most days getting things done. Last year of undergrad! We are excited to make the transition next year, and I think he is ready to get into a different school, he's sick of UWM, and so am I.

Little man is doing awesome, loving pre-school, growing leaps and bounds! He has a select group of friends he talks about, and likes his teacher in the green room,he will be moving to the older preschool room by next summer. I can't believe how big he has gotten!
