Back At It...

Yea...back to work...yucky
or maybe he's telling me to get the camera out
of his grill...who knows :)
So long holiday schedule, it was back to the grind for Team Anders. It's taken a bit of time for us to get adjusted back into our daily routine - and the 0545 wake ups with no naps - but we've got a 4-day work week under our belts and all of the Team seems to be adjusted. The toughest part for me is sending Easton back to daycare and only getting to see him for about two hours everyday. He's so exhausted from being at "school" all day (where he refuses to nap - too much he might be missing out on) that the second I pick him up and drive the .5 miles home he's racked out for the night! :( sad mommy...sleepy baby...

Anyway, not a ton to talk about except that I had an interview on Wednesday for a potential job which would take the family back to Dayton, OH this coming summer. I am very excited about the opportunity and am keeping my fingers crossed that it all works out. The interview went as well as I could have imagined but we'll see if I'm selected. If I am we'll have one last hurdle to clear with the personnel team down in Texas since I'm not technically schedule to change station until summer '13. Keeping our fingers crossed :)

Other than that we're just enjoying the unseasonably "warm" weather here...despite the two frigid days early in the week it's been in the mid-40's here!! Lovely :) Easton is continuing to develop his mobility tactics and is CRUISING all over the house. He's also now able to stand on his own...pulls himself up on the rails of his crib, mommy and daddy's legs, Rae...whatever he can find! Super cute. Here are some photos from the week!

All bundled up for school. Haven't got much
use out of this heavy jacket...yet... ugh

Ok ready buddy? 1...2...

3!!! Look at him go :) Standing all by himself

Rae supervising from her new perch...cat-dog...

E's new favorite thing is to crawl over objects - doesn't matter what he just
keeps going...back and forth...I think at this point he was after my coffee mug

Success...well at least over the obstacle...the coffee mug somehow
relocated itself to the other side of my leg 

Our play room...so great!!!

Gooood morning, everyone!

We do not like to be told "no"...such a rough
life you lead, son...
Well I've got tons going on so gots to say adios for now!! Hope everyone has a fabulous week and it's off to the slopes for us this Friday so I anticipate having a much more interesting entry next week. Until then... :)

Introducing...Easton Douglas Anders!

Easton Douglas Anders - 3 days old More pictures @ http://www.our365.com/ He's here, he's here!!!  Jace and I welcomed our son Easton Douglas to the world this past Saturday, April 16th at 4:22 PM and we couldn't be more proud.  It was an awesome experience...not so much in the "incredibly cool, can't wait to do it again" context but genuinely in AWE of how mother nature and modern medicine can work together to ease a woman and efficiently deliver a baby.  Before I tell you all a little bit about our story (again, no worries, I won't blast all the nitty gritty across your screen) I must say a HUGE thank you to our staff at Winchester Hospital.  Though I know not a single of of those doctors, nurses and other staff members will read this they will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the outstanding service and love they showed all three of us!!  They exceeded any expectations Jace and I might have had and just had to throw that out there. ...

My Bachelorette Weekend

Jace has been in MN since Thursday braving the cold with  Team Franchise at the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championship .  The team made it to Sunday again this year but unfortunately couldn't get by the "Pulled Hammies" this morning to advance to the finals.  Better luck next year, boys! :( So, since he's been gone I've been catching up on projects around the homestead since it's been so damn cold outside.  On Thursday night I scanned in about 80 old family photos that I had received over the years from my Aunt Kathleen.  I decided to do this because I'm building an online baby book for mini-Ma$e and you can add pictures - thought it'd be fun to add some old family photos.  Anyway, I won't overload you with too many but here are some of my favorites...the rest can be viewed here . Moving on... Friday started off with another snowstorm - excellent.  Hanscom was open for business...well, that is, for everyone ex...

Trunk or Treat 2013

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
